A creator who lost 27 kilos describes how her audience turned on her, calling her unrelatable and disappointing, even though they never said anything before the change. The conversation explores how sharing personal transformations online invites harsh judgment from people who feel entitled to your body.
I really admire how much you share on social media. You're very open about your life, what you do and how your experiences. But that's not without its challenges. The judgment is brutal. Tell me about it. Like, give me an example.
Two years ago, I lost 27 kilos, so it's a lot of weight. And I looked very different from that. Now I don't get it so much because I think people have forgotten from before some people's memories. Isn't that interesting? Really short. And I like that. And people would say I'm unrelatable. Or people would say how disappointed she was in me because I've always represented being who you are and embracing who you are. Embody positivity. And now I just think smaller is better. Like everybody else now. Omar. I hadn't said anything.
They just put those words.
Yeah, I hadn't said a thing. I didn't say smaller was better. I just got smaller. And so people had a lot of opinions.
About that.
About that.
