00:00:00.000I don't know, you guys are speaking, I don't know, what I have to say is, body positivity is, to me, just really accepting the way you look, and for me, ain't gonna lie, I agree with, to some, I do agree with a lot of what you're saying, and, but when you, when being overweight has been an issue your whole life, and then people are also, people also make comments as an adult,
00:00:28.300like, people have always just targeted you for that, and to me, to be honest, it just scrambled my head, and it wasn't good for me, so body positivity, to me, is basically accepting the way you look, and to be honest, I hated, I wasn't happy with my body, Pearl, I really wasn't, and,
00:00:50.780are you happy with it now, I am, okay, okay, firstly, I'm like, I am what I am, but I make, I make conscious decisions, like, to eat healthy things, yeah, and I'm also not gonna lie, and say, I'm the most healthiest, because,
00:01:06.980well, last week you were saying, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, yeah, but today is about, is where, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
00:01:14.260with personal trainers, yeah, of course, I love chicken and tits, and certain things, um, and I can't help it,
00:01:23.420we too, but in moderation, no, no, it's not about moderation, my weight is old weight, but I actually,
00:01:28.880I get it, I can't have it in the house, otherwise I'll just eat the whole box, whatever it is, whatever it is, whatever it is,
00:01:32.720in the house my dad actually has cancer so in my house everything is there's no processed food at
00:01:38.400all and that's why it's just literally you have to if you want to drink drink you have to juice
00:01:43.520it yourself if you want to get ice cream you want to you to make it yourself and it's full of vitacol
00:01:48.240because like boxes so that's how it goes and then there's not even a microwave at home as well so i
00:01:54.800can't actually heat my food like everything is basically in the best way that i can cook and
00:02:01.040what about the people out there who are maybe in a similar situation to you where they don't have
00:02:05.360access to processed or unhealthy foods at home but they still seek those things when they're out of
00:02:10.960the house what what would you say to those people who actively seek unhealthy food i'd say my advice
00:02:19.040honestly would be you don't want a heart attack you don't want to die early you want to survive
00:02:27.280you want to build some memories you want to be a grandmother or a grandpa and it's important to
00:02:32.880actually think and that's what i mean you need to but wouldn't that be a better message for the body
00:02:38.320positivity movement to say rather than love yourself 100 like what you just said you just because you
00:02:45.200you could you could get cancelled nowadays for what sugar puff okay no because it's like you know if
00:02:50.400like lizzo comes out and says hey i'm i'm i want to start losing weight all the fans start coming for her
00:02:57.280and you know she she just wants to better herself and get healthy it's like if you're saying oh you're
00:03:01.920going to die soon and no i don't i don't think it's like that for me it's literally i am not delusional
00:03:08.880with myself i am big i know i'm big but at the end of the day i don't promote the reason why i'm for
00:03:17.360body positivity is because people literally get mistreated and i'm against that and especially with how do you
00:03:24.800how do you think that how do you how do you think people get mistreated um well i was 28 stones i was
00:03:31.680at my biggest um now i'm 21 and and like i said i've been eating healthy and i've actually actively
00:03:38.480been trying yes i'm not on it with the exercise but you could be remember yes we could we could
00:03:46.560actually i actually want muscles you know i actually do want muscles but that's why body
00:03:51.360positivity is important the representation is important now i understand what what about like
00:03:57.440smoking you know i mean like like like what if we wanted to normalize smoking and put smoking on the
00:04:02.400okay at the end of the day smoking is literally your it's a different method smoking is
00:04:07.920that's what smoking is and eating is you're using your mouth you're using your teeth and your taste
00:04:16.960buds are working with smoking it's just well my point is like normalizing something that's i would
00:04:22.400say obesity like yeah it's it's an ill i mean i don't know i don't even think it's about normalizing
00:04:28.960people just need to gain some respect and know that people are individuals now if you really want to
00:04:36.720make an active difference if you guys really want to make an active difference when you see a big
00:04:40.640person you'd be like come on man let's run or let's play a game or let's do something like
00:04:45.760actively make a difference i would challenge you as well to find me like a body positivity movement
00:04:50.640that's like eat junk do whatever you want that's not what it is yeah well it's not promoting unhealthy
00:04:56.320no i see girls do it all the time they do what i eat in a day i just reacted to one the other day
00:05:01.200it was like four oh my gosh yes a lot of eating yes it's like fourth i counted four thousand five
00:05:06.800hundred calories what yeah that's what i said four thousand five hundred calories in a day they do
00:05:12.640like this is what i ate today as a fat person i think this is what yeah i'm against that and and
00:05:17.440i'm like to me that's like like this is how i smoked right i i don't think we should normalize it with
00:05:22.640that like for me personally i would never show uh that because i don't want to promote unhealthy things
00:05:28.720in the same way that if i smoked or vaped i wouldn't show me smoking or vaping on my page
00:05:33.200because it's not something that i would be proud of you know um but like i i wouldn't support that
00:05:38.480and i wouldn't call that the body positivity movement for what it means to me is people just
00:05:42.800accepting themselves for who they are um wanting the best of themselves and i don't think there's
00:05:47.040anything wrong with that whether you're fat whether you're skinny whether you're anorexic i think
00:05:50.240that the body positivity movement applies to you i think it's just enjoying who you are and not
00:05:54.720letting that hold if i thought too much about what i look in a bikini i would never wear one
00:05:58.080you know but i don't care so i just wear one and i enjoy how i feel i'm pro i'm pro modesty you
00:06:02.640know what i mean yeah but i mean you can have a modest bikini can i tell you what's wrong with
00:06:09.520that with the world let's see what's wrong with the world big statement okay no no that is a big
00:06:15.200statement no i'll tell you i'll tell you go ahead go ahead it's a pod this is what we're here to do come on
00:06:23.360everyone everyone has an issue with everyone everyone is like no they should be like this
00:06:30.160they should be like that everyone just needs to simply mind their own business and and when i say
00:06:35.040that i don't mean in a bad way it's like for example he like you said i don't know if you said it did you
00:06:41.760say fat shaming works is that what yeah okay so for example fat shaming now imagine an unhealthy person
00:06:48.000like me and i i mean i try and be healthy yes but it is what it is and i'm body positive because i i
00:06:54.640honestly i've learned to love my body now a pearl and i'm sticking with that but if i can lose weight
00:06:59.920i would as well so no no no no body positivity is all about just accepting the way you look and being
00:07:11.360happy and actually just be like yeah i think we should always be trying to get better no yes we can
00:07:17.840we should always be trying to improve we can get better but sugar puff it doesn't mean we can't
00:07:22.320be fly and look hot and press ourselves i was just to your point though sugar puff right you said
00:07:29.120what's wrong with the world people are saying you should live this way you should live this way but
00:07:32.400it's not it say it's the body positivity movement saying hey we should be comfortable as this
00:07:38.000where realistically what if that's killing you and then to your point as well what pearl's saying if
00:07:42.960it's like smoking smoking's an addiction you brought up comfort eating and that's how
00:07:47.440people cope that's an addiction so it's you can treat it the same as smoking we're going to promote
00:07:52.720smoking as it's all it's all sweet you know if you're comfortable smoking and you're happy smoking
00:07:57.360keep doing it we're not saying you should live that way we're just saying not even we it's not
00:08:01.680even we just i think rational people are saying if you're going to keep going down that route you're
00:08:06.800probably going to die you're going to lower your life expectancy that's not okay so imagine that's just
00:08:11.520the truth imagine look you're a fit person you're fit you exercise i can see that you take care of
00:08:16.800yourself and that now imagine yeah there's a big person and they're already kind of suffering we
00:08:23.840know they're unhealthy they're suffering they've got knee problems they've got all sorts and now
00:08:30.080they ain't even they're not even surviving like they're finding it hard and i'm talking about an
00:08:33.920unhealthy big person and now you're saying ah you're fat ha ha ha when i would never do that
00:08:41.040never do that who does that i just want people do and that's what i faced i have faced that pearl
00:08:47.360that's the sad thing i faced it so when you i'm sorry obviously you may not do that but people do
00:08:53.040that i'd like to hear from the pt i want to i want to see how you respond to this yeah i have a cousin
00:08:58.080from trinidad two weeks ago that died from a cardiac arrest due to over obesity now she was one of the
00:09:08.000most comfortable in asking happiest person make everyone laugh type of person and she was definitely
00:09:17.280unbothered with this entire world would you call that body positivity that's very sad and i'm sorry for
00:09:23.520your loss um no i don't think that what you've just said relates to body positivity um i think
00:09:30.400that's incredibly unfortunate what's happened but like do i think that if people had been harsher on
00:09:35.040her she would have lost the weight no i i don't you know i don't think that's how it works i don't think
