My mother was obese and she was a fat shamer. I about had a stroke when I found out she called one of my sisters fat. She went from a size 9 to a size 12 I think (this was years ago so anyway). My mother in contrast well she was at least a size 28 and I am being generous here. And I have heard men that are huge talking shit about women that are a few pounds over weight. I think Rush likes to say that about Michele Obama and I am like really she is gorgeous and she is built like an athlete. Rush on the other hand looks like he'd keel over if he had to take a flight of stairs. Bottom line is people who are secure about themselves don't do this. And I don't care if they have feel bads cuz about themselves, doing this to prop themselves up is disgusting.

BTW Iskra is beautiful and she always will be no matter what her size is and no matter what she looks like her personality shines through and it's wonderful.

As a man i never understood this whole skinny bony thing. Im attracted to parts or things i dont have! my hips arent curvy, i dont have boobs, she has a lot going on that makes her extremely sexy. i cant believe there many guys out there who would look at her curvy body and say .. nahh thats not for me.. her detractors are idiots.

NOW that being said. i just recently had my wisdom tooth taken out one was impacted so it was a decent surgery and im down from 222 to 209 in 7 days. and my belly has gotten noticably smaller. and having a lot of weight in your mid section is associated much shorter life and lots of diseases. So i think its also important that we consider our weight when it comes to health. So if you are a heathly curvy wait and exercise then i see nothing wrong with it.
