Who knows? One of these days you might just strike gold and dig up some cursed sketchbook from the thrift shop. Every stroke of the pencil wiping away a little more of your former life, smothered and gone beneath the burgeoning tide of pillowy pig pudge. Turns out pencil can be permanent after all.

Good luck on your self-portrait, and may the weekend prove wonderfully relaxing

Absolutely yes, it's a slap in the face. As if the body positivity movement were really just body convenience. They're just on "your" side because losing weight took actual effort before magic bullet injections.

Love the skin you're in. Big or small, you're beautiful just the way you want to be.

I remember the talks about disordered eating in high school health class. This was a bit before the body positivity movement really took off, and the pictures of ruinous effects of people using what means they had still linger. This seems it could be even worse with both how easy and effective it is

All I can really say is that I hope it turns out well for them.

There are plenty of historical cases of miracle drugs getting pushed as a magic bullet that seems too good to be true - and it turns out that they are a few years down the line.

I hope this isn't going to be one of those times...
