Kate weight loss

[Fraudornot]

Her recent appearance at Anna Freud Centre in the check dress she looks so thin - sorry can’t link as on phone.

People aren't being sycophantic. They just aren't believing malice from a subreddit known for being a hate subreddit. They are defending a woman known to be ill.

The sycophancy and delusion on this thread is disturbing.

Ach, now you’re just being a wee daftie.

I can’t believe the number of nasty posts on here. This is supposed to be a site for mothers. How can you not have empathy for a mother who has gone through cancer? Yes she’s rich and privileged and it would be lying to say that doesn’t make a difference but she must have been terribly worried for her children. The worry must still be at the back of her mind. Cancer is a bastard.

It’s funny how people have the vapours if you dare to suggest someone is overweight but it’s open season if you’re slim.

I was Catherine’s shape naturally at her age, (though sadly not as tall) and I had also had three children. My mother was tall and slim too. Lived to a ripe old age and enjoyed excellent health.

Catherine is recovering from cancer and also has a very active lifestyle.

She looks fantastic to me, nothing sycophantic about it, I think slim looks better, sorry.

I’ve said upthread that I think she looks great. It’s not sycophancy (I’m actually a staunch Republican and anti-monarchist), just an objective observation.

Really? When has she body shamed another woman?

@Dontevenlookatme Catherine is about 5'10. She is clearly about 8 stone.

That is very underweight.

I am the same height as her, with a naturally slender build. I eat healthily, exercise daily, etc. I am 9 and a half stone and a size 8. I am on the low end of a healthy BMI, but this is my natural shape and I've been the same size most of my adult life.

At my height, if I were to lose a stone and a half, I would look emaciated and frail, as does Catherine. She is not merely 'slim'.

Her clothes are lovely, her hair looks great, her make up artist does an excellent job. But she is very underweight, and pretending otherwise is delusional.

I also think it's important to acknowledge that she is very underweight - aside from the unhealthy body image messaging - for it to be recognised that she is still obviously struggling with health issues and should be cut some slack as a result.

She is clearly not a well woman. Pretending that she looks fabulous at this unhealthy weight enables the negative press around her being a slacker and needing to get back to work because she's clearly fine now. It's very obvious from her weight that she's not, and she needs more time to recover properly.

I’m going to break my normal standard of never replying to you this one time!!!
you are telling complete lies ! , I have never body shamed anyone or commented on their appearance! , now either you produce proof that I have done this ( which you can’t because it’s completely false) or you apologise and retract your statement!

I have never! She’s telling lies.

I know. My sarcasm didn't come over well.

👍😁

Since when was it possible to say how heavy someone is by looking at them? I weigh about 60 kilos / 10 stone ish but no one believes me because I am quite slim, but I am also quite tall and toned, so I am the opposite to you, heavier than I look. You are making a sweeping generalisation as are many in this thread. All the “she looks 60”, “she is thin”, “she doesn’t look like she has had cancer” bollocks. There is no one size fits all and everyone looks different whatever their health, weight or age. Photos can show lots of different things both positive and negative, so it’s impossible to judge just by looking at them. Not is it often possible irl. I got asked if I was over 21 once when buying alcohol. I was 39. I am lucky that I do not always look my age, but everyone is different and making pronouncements on someone because of your perception of their appearance is a very inaccurate science

Since the emphasis is on good BMI and a healthy weight for height, the Mounjaro effect has many on the road to slimdom. Once a person moves from obesity to normal weight, that is admired. Nothing much out there about grossly underweight people really is there?

Being underweight is probably just as unhealthy as being overweight, but since all the publicity surrounds losing weight, the injections, low carb this, high protein that, the unhealthy underweights can slip through the net unnoticed.

I'm speaking generally here not about K.

Just as it is body shaming and frowned on to comment on over weight people, so it is to do so to “under weight “ people, you have no idea what that person is going through.
it is also nobody else’s business.

It's just the way things are, nothing stops commentary on the subject. I don't comment on people's weight, being the not so perfect picture myself!

If I started a thread about a female celebrity titled “* weight gain “
and then proceeded to mention them looking terribly fat or worryingly fat, I would rightly be flamed !
if that celebrity had recently been hospitalised and the treatment had made them put on weight, I would be rightly flamed.
comments about women’s weight and bodies shouldn’t be made at all , but the double standards towards thin women is particularly bad.

Thinness is the holy grail now. Very few overweight people in the public eye, not totally I know (not that it should matter) so all most people see are the thin ones.

Therefore it is something to aspire to, no pain no gain, get to the gym, do low carb, mounjaro whatever. Then you'll be ok.

I honestly think many including myself stare in wonder at the thin sculptured look of those in the public eye and in the media and wish we could be like that. I reckon most people know when thinness is from illness or anorexia, and those commenting on that, can do that. Free speech, free country. So far anyway! As I said it's human nature to have an opinion. Otherwise we wouldn't be bombarded every day with images such as these that subliminally invite comment.

Stare in wonder all you like !
however saying it’s the holy grail and takes work is no excuse, neither is free speech an excuse for being insulting.
thyroid issues work both ways, Just as they can cause weight gain, they also cause weight loss, as someone who has been thin my entire life due to mine , I can sit on my bum and stuff cakes in my face all day and not get fat! Lucky or not being told you are anorexic or to “eat another pie”
constantly is not complimentary, particularly if the shoe was on the other foot it would be insulting.

I was referring to people in the public eye. Not you.

You know, those on catwalks, in film, at red carpet gigs, the RF, you get the picture. They want to be there so naturally their appearance will be reported about and commented upon by the great unwashed. There's no insult involved or intended in general, it's just human nature to comment on those who put themselves out there.

That won't change any time soon as long as it's reported on and photos are provided by the media and PR folk.

You can’t “guesstimate” what someone weighs, there are too many unknown factors, bone density, musculature, even the size of their head makes a difference.

You’re expressing your opinion, but stating it as though it’s fact. If we are supposed to accept people being overweight as healthy then the same can be true of what you consider underweight.

For me, what’s important is an appearance of health and happiness. Catherine looks healthy and happy to me.

She's certainly not like these two

Or these two
