#my wife knows a girl who's thin as a rail and is insulin dependent

[ghostfilles]

i am so fucking SICK of the “jokes” about how all diabetics are fat or how every fat person on earth has diabetes/will get diabetes. that’s not how it fucking works. diabetes is not SOLELY a fat person disease and the next crusty boring streamer to make that joke can get fucked and i wish you a very deplatformed

diabetes is not caused by being fat -- it’s caused by poor dietary choices. my uncle was rail thin and had wildly uncontrolled diabetes due to his poor diet/massive sugar intake. the reason it’s connected to being a “fat” disease is because a poor diet causes weight gain a lot of the times but diabetes is NOT conditioned on being fucking fat. there are plenty of people who are overweight that don’t have it. just. god. people need to shut the fuck up.
