Fat Cosplay

[Anonymous No.8072871]

Honest opinion 'gulls. How do you feel about overweight people in cosplay? I've always had mixed opinions about it, I've seen some really good costumes, but it's usually characters who are portrayed as large anyway. Is it just a case of fat people can't look good in anything or is it more down to choosing a costume that suits their shape?

I don't care. If they look gross or disgusting I just ignore them. Not that tough of a concept to grasp, really.

Some are good, but most give no thought to what actually looks good on them, halfass the construction, then cry 'fat hatred' when no one wants a pic of their shittily-tailored, doughy ass

[Anonymous No.8073225]

I'm really tired of the sjw's coming out and trying to use the excuse that modern cosplay is inclusive of all to justify a fat girl looking awful in a cosplay, especially when it's a skinny character. The worst is when they try to wear something that evidently doesn't suit them or fit properly. This doesn't just apply to obese cosplayers, but even podgy girls who are just in denial about their size and making terrible costumes choices that they will never look good in unless they're in shape. Besides cosplay, there is no excuse for being overweight and it's not fucking healthy. Fattychans can use whatever shitty excuse they want to try and justify being a landwhale, but in the end they're the only ones doing damage to their health, no one else.

[Anonymous No.8073798]

This.
Also, actors can get their shit together in months for a role, they obviously don't go full landwhale most of the times but I think it shows what dedication can do.

[Anonymous No.8074534]

>>8073798
Yeah, but actors have more money and resources to throw around on tailor-made diets, home gyms, cosmetic surgeons and personal life coaches and trainers. I'm not saying that this is an excuse for people not to try to lose weight, but actors have it far easy because they can afford to spend tonnes of money on quinoa wheat grass smoothies and gold flecks and a live-in personal trainer.

Agreed. But I've seen this type on all spectrums of bodies. There's really no reason to single out fatties for this.
>there's no excuse to be overweight, it's a choice
Being an angry tool with a vendetta against fatties when you know that being so hateful doesn't help is also a choice. Your attitude is easier to change than someone's body.

>>8074688
that's not really true.

food doesn't have to be organic for it to be healthy

and alot of times the food is naturally non-gmo/non-pesticide through growing practices

like a lot of tomatoes and lettuce which are grown through hydroponic means, and a lot of stuff that the agricultural dept of the University california system research.

also a lot of people who despise GMO corn tend to prefer other foods which are GMO

so....don't let marketing cloud your judgement.

fresh spinach, chicken and kale and butter leaf lettuce tends to taste bettter when prepared right than a $4.99 1/4 pounder with cheese

also butterleaf lettuce is usually the best deal, organic or not it's grown the same method

in a standing pool of water

[Anonymous No.8074716]

>>8074710
I agree in regards to organic. If I was to buy organic fruit and veg at the store it's hideously expensive. Good quality fruit, veg and meat from a farmers market or similar is very cheap and of equal, or better, quality. I even grow my own things like tomatoes - I actually have to give away many this crop because I have more than I can eat, and I only bought a punnet or two of seedlings.

I'm also a fatty (I used to be larger, but still overweight) and when I consider a cosplay I am VERY picky. You can either cosplay a fat character (which can be done well or terribly), or adapt a thinner character (again can be done reasonably well, but also horrifically badly.) I think the problem a lot of larger cosplayers have is that they're in denial about their size and shape, so they don't alter or tailor things to fit properly, so you get a fat person shoe-horned into an ill-fitting, poorly made cosplay and it just snowballs into oblivion.

[Anonymous No.8074717]

>>8074710
>don't let marketing cloud your judgment
Lmao. That's the point of marketing. Also "tasty" food is usually processed shit because they manufactured them to appeal to our instinctual tastes (high fat/sugar/carb/salt).

[Anonymous No.8074737]

>>8074710
Hence why I also put in the other examples of excuses people can come up with. It's a lot more easier for someone to get the 2 dollar frozen meal filled with shit over having to prepare from fresh ingredients.

As a fat-ass poor myself I just heartily laugh at all excuses that go "but it's not laziness alone!". No, but most of the times it is. Running is free, water is cheap, walking somewhere instead of driving is good for you.

To actually be on topic for a bit: if the fat cosplayer has the same construction levels as a skinny cosplayer, they're always at a disadvantage, in terms of being appealing. Put that fat cosplayer next to a shitty skinny cosplayer it might be a bit different. Personally I tend to look more at a combination "is it flattering"+"how well made is it".

every single time

here's a quick logical breakdown for 2nd grade students, skinny refers to low bodyfat% in healthy ranges

every person who is fat is unhealthy.
not every person who is unhealthy is fat.
being fat is associated with being unhealthy because it directly causes being unhealthy.

not every person who is skinny is unhealthy.
every person who is healthy is skinny.
being skinny is therefore associated with being healthy, because every healthy person is also skinny (because if they were fat, they'd be unhealthy).

I would hardly say most people have a "vendetta" for looking disdainfully at an overweight person. There is no positive way of expressing towards something that isn't a healthy, natural state.

>your attitude is easier to change than someone's body
I think the person with the weight problem is the one who should be changing their attitude.

This is coming from someone who is relatively out of shape. I'm aware of this and there is no excuse for it, hence why I would never try and say it's someone else's fault. Some of these people are so in denial about it that they're never going to be able to help themselves.

Really? OBESITY IS A MEDICAL CONDITION. Being fat in itself is a condition. An illness.
Because I know you're just going to passive-aggressively say "oh you're a doctor???" here's a good study

Notice that most negative health effects are caused by any and all excess adipose tissue, not just a big amount of it. More is worse.


I can also give you plenty of incredibly logical explanations that don't involve any way or form of scholarly confirmation.
>as your mass increases, your heart needs to push more blood through the body, putting it under heavy stress
>as your mass increases, load on the joints gets heavier
And so forth

>500-1000 dollars is expensive. I'm sorry you're sheltered.
I'm sorry you don't have a job, what the fuck. It's something that will benefit you for all your life, not just once or twice.

There are professions dedicated to doing just that. These people tend to be more adult and much more dedicated to helping and less about judging, though.

Not everyone who is overweight is medically obese. If you're strictly talking about the obese then I agree but I think we all know cgl standads of hamplanet starts at 140 pounds.

And I've bought junk food too, it averages out to be similar price to the healthy food.

In Aus, vegetables, fruit and meat can all be very expensive because 1) our cost of living is higher, so almost everyone not earning over a certain amount struggles 2) we have limited available land to grow crops 3) we got through periods of drought that lasts years, and have frequent storms/floods all of which can drive up the prices of our produce

Seriously, this. Australian food prices are very, very high. Americans and people in the UK do that 'dollar/pound a day' thing and it's painful going through the store and looking at the prices of food.

I rarely eat pre-prepared food, but I just had my wisdom teeth out and had to go shopping. Turns out that buying enough soups from the deli at woolworths/safeway for a week actually costs less than how much I spend on food usually.

Some meat isn't /too/ bad, but I live in Tasmania, either way... I tend not to eat too much and when I do I get it from a butcher so I know it's fresh and free-ranged, which only hikes up the price further.

IMO obese people shouldn't cosplay. It never looks good unless the character they are cosplaying is also obese. Overweight can get away with it depending on how much but when you hit that 200lb mark focus on losing weight instead.

Everyone seems to be talking about McDonalds, which, tbh isn't that bad if you get smaller portions. If I have to go there, I just get the Happy Meal box, smaller portions and you get a goofy toy. Aslong as you're not eating that stuff everyday.

Anyway, fat cosplay: Depends on the person. If the character is fat, they've altered the costume to suit their body shape more and it's clear they've spent a lot of time on it, all is good. Also helps if the person is clean and tidy, not stinky and greasy. Personality helps too, if they're polite and friendly, it goes a long way.

[Anonymous No.8076084]

Depends on the character. I don't like seeing fat people cosplaying characters that don't suit for their body type or costume that doesn't flatter them. Honestly, who likes seeing whales on lara croft cosplay? But if the costume is good and the person has a good hygiene, then I don't mind.

It's also because the biosecurity stuff makes importing cheap and decent fruit and veg difficult = less competition on prices. Even when they opened the apple market to NZ growers most of them went nope, we'll keep sending to the US because it works out as greater profit.
Cross the ditch to NZ and you halve your grocery bill, we get fruit and veg for 3 people for a week for $80NZD (and that's not buying the cheapest stuff we can find, either), and being a poor student vegetarian for $20/week works in some cities with farmers' markets or good fruit and veg store (big tray of eggs for $6-$7, then the rest on the best seasonal vege deals for the week)

It's what a brand new power rack, barbell set, and some form of cardio machine costs. I don't know US prices well, but 500-1000 bucks seems about right.

This is the absolutely most expensive getting fit will be. You can get a gym membership for like 200 bucks a year. You could also buy a used powerrack and run instead of buying an expensive cardio machine.

If you're actually homeless (who found a laptop in the trash and browses /cgl/ on mcdonalds wifi), you could do bodyweight exercises and run. 100% entirely free.

I don't know why you think planning your own diet is hard.
It literally takes 40 minutes of reading through what your body does with macronutrients, calories, and which vitamins or other things you may be lacking. That's it. Zero cost. You don't need to see some retard nutritionist who will misinform you just so you feel comforted.

I'll give you trainers, but you don't need a personal trainer to pick up a barbell and do some good exercises and/or run. They have those trainers to get incredibly aesthetic bodies, the trainers look at them and tell them which muscles to work out. You don't need this. Technically, not even they would need that, because you can easily train yourself, but they're rich and have better things to do with their time.

What is your issue with that statement?

Skinny doesn't mean that. Skinny isn't fit or slender.

You should read the post again. Anon literally said that he refers to bodyfat percentages in healthy ranges with skinny. He laid out the definition he uses for you as it's a subjective thing and you still misunderstand. That's below second grade, kek

[Anonymous No.8076587]

Yes he did but you might as well use fat only for heavy weight lifters. Or refer to all Christians as Catholics. But whatever you use fat synonymous with landwhale and skinny synonymous with healthy fit person and build your posts on that. Its 4chan, enjoy your posts.

I don't think the point was to mislabel "skinny", the point was to use a more sound and logical definition than "person who is slender".
Because otherwise, retards like you would chime in and say
>OH, BUT LOOK AT ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER! HE'S NOT SKINNY!

[Anonymous No.8076602]

>>8076532
anon said skinny = healthy amount of bodyfat.

the definition is wrong, i'd not refer to everyone with healthy amount of bodyfat as skinny. like muscular people.
but the logic is sound. you can't be healthy without having a healthy amount of bodyfat. therefore, having healthy amounts of bodyfat, read, not fat, is associated with being healthy.

Food in the US is hard too because you can't live on minimum wage. (In b4 "get a better job" it's hard to find one if you're under 30 because the old people refuse to retire.) Our housing costs and transportation are so expensive that they offset low food prices. Your minimum wage is $16, ours is $7.
Not that it excuses eating garbage. Your body is not a trash can, don't treat it like one. Get a god damn crock pot, you can buy cheapass cuts of meat because they'll become tender from slow cooking and it takes almost zero effort.
I grew up pretty poor (raise your own meat and garden poor) and crock pots saved us. Stew meat, bits and pieces from the butcher that usually end up as ground whatever in the US, actually tastes pretty good when slow cooked and even lamb stew meat costs like $3 a pound. (Lamb is stupidly expensive here, I get it every so often because we raised sheep and it reminds me of home) another trick is to go to the nearest farming area and find a butcher that advertises butchering animals rather than meat, they sometimes help families offset costs by getting x amount of pounds of meat and selling it for cheap out of their shop. It's usually truly free range too because the people that use small butchers like that don't own factory farms. They also kill humanely too for the most part because it's kind of butcher broscience that a stressed animal doesn't taste as good.

any tips for simple healthy meals? like preferably on youtube because I'm an idiot

If I want to eat more healthy dinners I'll need to make them myself since I still live at home and my cooking skills don't go beyond being able to make scrambled eggs....

[Anonymous No.8076721]

>>8076671
Crock pot. Throw some meat and veg in there before work. Add spices (Mrs dash is good if you can't into spices. Its salt free) add some stock if its lean meat, turn it on low and when you get home your house will smell divine and food will be ready. A chicken breast, a carrot, a celery stalk or two, and a potato feeds me dinner and lunch the next day. Its kind of a traditional college gift where I come from because of men have never cooked. Its pretty much idiot proof, you can also find five ingredient crock pot cook books.

Actors spend alot of money on equipment and trainers which does make certain aspects of it easier. What doesn't change though and most people overlook is that they have to work their ass off in order to take their ass off. Anyone who puts in that much effort is going to see significant changes regardless of how much is spent. Old school calisthenics and body weight exercises work just fine, what they don't do is let you isolate muscle groups which is only necessary if you are doing body sculpting.

Take a little time to learn how to cook, you'll need to use it for approximately the next 50 years of life and it significantly improves your quality of life.

The first thing you should learn is how to sharpen a knife. Most people have kitchen knives that are very dull and actually a dull knife is more dangerous than a sharp one. With a dull knife you need to put more force behind it and there is a greater risk of it slipping and hurting you. Most homes also have a knife drawer where knives bang against each other or people leave them in the dish rack, this all leads to dull edges and chips in the blade. hand wash and dry your knives and store them in a knife block or with a blade guard on the edge to protect it.

The second thing you should learn is knife skills. Learn how to hold and use a knife properly and the techniques for dicing onions or other vegetables. You won't believe how quickly and evenly you can take them apart once you know the correct way to do it. Check on Youtube for examples on how to do it.

It is difficult to live on minimum wage if you work only 40 hours a week. 40 hours a week is about 9 hours a day at work, that leaves 8 hours to sleep and approximately 7 hours a day for anything else and two days off. To my mind that's still alot of leisure time. Pick up an extra shift, work a double, or get a second job.

I worked at McDonalds in college to pay for school and make some extra money. Part time during weekends when school was in session and full time during breaks. When I worked full time I picked up every extra hour I possibly could by working doubles, covering for sick people, staying late for extra cleanup, etc. Once you pass 40 hours it's overtime and 1.5 times pay. Sometimes I would hit up to 60 hours which took me from about $800 take-home a month to $1,400. It still isn't great pay but $600 a month lets you start to make make changes that let you get ahead.

In the city I live in that wouldn't even cover rent for one bedroom one bathroom. You gotta be like a stripper or sugar baby or like sell your soul or something. $1000+ go towards rent, then there are other bills. Leaving maybe like $20 for food for the month. I could buy maybe a pack of chicken for $5, a head of lettuce for $1.50. Bunch of bananas $2. Two or three cans of soup will be $5. Almond milk (lactose intolerance. And too much soy will mess with horomones) $3. Cereal $3 and then I gotta think about tax and if my bag isn't big enough to carry, then I have to buy bags for 10 cents to 25 cents each and then I have to think about bus money because the grocery store is in no way walking distance. All of that could last like two weeks if I eat a healthy three meals a day. Longer if I decide to skip a meal. But then if I wait too long the food can go bad.
I remember taking as many shifts as I could, and still I ran out of food and it was just like surviving off of pancakes, water, left over almonds, and rice. I couldn't pay attention in school and I couldn't do my best a work. And at the same time I was trying to lose weight. But I was just so damn hungry and poor I didn't even have the energy to work out.

No offense but you were living in the city while going to school. If you were just working or attended a school in an area with lower cost of living, you wouldn't have had to sacrifice as much. If you were collecting a paycheck for working during the time you spent in school you would have had more than enough money for food.

Alternatively if you moved to a lower cost area in order to attend school you would have had more money available to avoid starving.

Incase you actually want to know what makes for a healthy dinner and are interested in nutrition and such, give the sticky on /fit/ a read.
Just ignore all the weightlifting stuff and such, but it's incredibly helpful and correct on what calories and macros actually do with your body. I feel like people are incredibly misinformed about macros in general.
