Chrissy Metz Opens Up About Her Weight, Confidence And Inspiring Others | Megyn Kelly TODAY
I just love her. Honest and comfortable in her own skin. You go Chrissy!!
I don't think she will make 55 at this rate though. That ain't cool. It's sad
@@jnolette1030 Exactly! She is morbidly obese and has even gotten bigger in recent years. As beautiful as she is, her health is at stake here.
Very positive attitude
The best part is not allowing other people's insecurities distract her from her goals and it's awesome though that she was able to find someone to design the clothes that she wears so that she can look good in those clothes while she's going through her journey
Her book is AMAZING!!!!!! I’ve never seen This is Us but I saw her book and realized I needed it because I have really low self-esteem. Chrissy is so so lovely and funny and beautiful inside and out!! Love her💜
I just finished binging This is Us on Netflix. I've never seen anything like it.
I Love This is Us .. A great show I would watch it again
Chrissy has the mentality we should all have about our body image. We allow society to “domesticate” us by telling us what “normal” is, how we should look, and how we should live our lives but Carrie - like she says here - doesn’t attach herself to those ideals and opinions. That puts her in a position of power and control over her OWN life. Good for her! She’s not claiming that being overweight is healthy - The message she is sharing (which a lot of commenters seem to be missing) is that we should love ourselves UNCONDITIONALLY regardless of how we look or what others think of us. None of us personally know her or her medical history so it’s foolish to assume she does nothing to lose the weight. It’s not as easy for everyone.
And this attitude is why the obesity epidemic is growing almost unchecked. It is not empowering. It is sad. But you go girl! Yaaaassss kaween!
@@jnolette1030 I agree she is beautiful. But, let's get real here about her weight. She is morbidly obese and has even gotten bigger since the first season of "This is Us". She can barely walk or stand and most of her scenes in the last season have her sitting down while others are standing. She is now age 41 and this is the age where if one does not lose weight and adapt healthier lifestyle choices, they will start having serious weight and poor lifestyle related health issues. I doubt she will live past age 60 if she does not lose this weight. And her acting roles will be limited too.
As much as we all would love to embrace all body sizes and shapes, comments like mine are not about "fat shaming". We are trying to encourage "good health" and there is NO way she is healthy at this weight. No way.
@@SilkyShish I agree completely
You can’t change anything about yourself until you love yourself the way you are.
@@whitneydavis7443 Very true. But, I don't think Chrissy doesn't love herself. I think her self-esteem is pretty good from what I have seen in her interview and when she talks about herself. The issue is she is not motivated to care enough about her health and is lazy. Not everyone who is this obese has low self-love and not everyone who is fit or thin have good self-love or good self-esteem. The size of the body and shape has little to do with our self-esteem and self-care and self-love.
I have always been naturally thin because I have a super fast metabolism. But, that didn't make me feel more confident or love my body or myself more than an overweight person. I got into fitness for my health and to gain strength and muscle tone, not to lose weight. It took me a while to love my body as is even though I now I have a fit and healthy body.
I think her issue is just lack of self-care about her weight and lack of motivation to care about her health. If she stays at this weight as she ages more she will have huge health issues and won't live past age 60.
Wow she is so incredible!! ♥️ She is so inspiring and all of us everywhere need her! She speaks powerful truths. If we all learn to see ourselves and others the way that she does this world will be a better place! Thank you for your courage to share all your experiences and what has led you to where you are now!! I love you Christy!!
Love Chrissy ❤️❤️❤️❤️
People need to stop commenting on her weight. Not once did she say being obese isn't a problem. She's just not going to sit there wallowing in self loathing about it. Funny how people think that overweight people need to constantly hate themselves.
Eating yourself to death by 55 isn't something to love about yourself
GREAT GREAT GREAT Woman!!!!!
I love Chrissy shes AMAZING
She is just the best !!
She is her best advocate.. it is a treat to be in a conversation.
She is an amazing woman through and through
Yeah but it sure is a long way through right?
@@alexvanderben9682 aw, look, everybody, little Alex made a funny....bless your little heart! Everybody, a round of applause for little Alex's funny! 👏 👏👏👏
Here you go, little Alex! 🍪🍪
It's SO interesting how people will tolerate alcohol, drug, excessive plastic surgeries and all other kinds of bodily abuse from stars, but suddenly become overly "concerned" about the weight of obese individuals. JUST. STOP. ✋ It's none of OUR business what someone chooses to do or not to THEIR bodies, especially since they're not asking for our opinions in the first place.
She is setting an EXAMPLE. Therefore it is EVERYONE'S business.
@ Blue Butterfly Wellness 👏🏽 best comment in this comment section.

@@leatherheart7081 Yes, she is setting an example that is it okay to be this unhealthy and have health issues and die at a young age when one is this morbidly obese. As much as we want to embrace all shapes and all sizes. The reality is she is morbidly obese and she will have health and mobility issues as she continues to age and most likely will not live past age 60 if she doesn't start to shed some pounds. She is only 41 and you can tell by watching the 6th season of the show she can barely walk or stand and has to sit down for most of her scenes now.
@@SilkyShishbut you embrace anorexia
She is not promoting obesity. she is promoting loving yourself and being comfortable with who you are. U dont have to wait until you're a certain size to feel beautiful and that is what chrissy teaches us. 💕
Gaby42191 Thank you!
Gaby42191 not really. She has a disease and she should be cured. Obesity is a disease.
Ignorance shining it's brightest.... 🤦
👏🏽
If she loved herself she wouldn't weigh 400+ lbs.
I love Chrissy❤️💐❤️💐
She is amazing ❤️
Beautiful woman, inside and out
There's huge difference between being bigger plus size and being obese. She is not plus size. She is unhealthy overweight. That's different. People can't feel good with this weight. Not because of how they look but because of their health.
I’ve noticed that any time anyone brings up her weight on the comment section they get all kinds of hate for it. I’m all for body positivity, but everyone needs to be realistic. She’s morbidly obese. There’s no way that it’s healthy. She’s such a beautiful and talented actress but I worry about her having serious health problems from the obesity. People felt the same way about John Goodman’s weight who lost the weight, but because he’s a man no one says anything about people bringing up his weight, but God forbid you bring up a woman's weight without being accused of "fat shaming".
@@SilkyShish she's super morbidly obese, not obese, not curvy. She needs a serious intervention. Why hasnt she tried gastric bypass? Or maybe she has but she won't live long if she doesn't do something soon
@@kittykat4313 I agree. She has even gotten bigger since the first season of "This is Us". She can barely walk or stand and most of her scenes in the last season have her sitting down while others are standing.

@@kittykat4313doctors wouldn't perform that surgery on her at that weight. Btw--I know someone who's been vegetarian all her life by choice, was chubby a nanosecond as a teen, still had a serious heart attack in her 30s. And at least three people who had the surgery bc they let society bully them into thinking that it would be a magic pill, the weight would disappear, and all of their problems would be solved. Guess what? None of that happened. After going through the expense and pain of the surgery, in some cases permanently and irreversibly altering a part of their body, going through discomfort at mealtimes on the regular, the weight came back. For some of them, it was not a magical, enforced self-discipline--they'd still overeat. There's a balance between the physical and the psychological that is different for everyone, and it can be a nightmare to figure it all out. But when you're running that race, and dragging at the end, the false sympathy means f$%kall if someone stands there and screams "you're not gonna make it!"
She never mentioned anything about her being “healthy”. Yet it’s interesting that’s all you focus on. She just said that her weight doesn’t define her identity in her mind, which is true.
i love chrissy so much 😍😍😍
Wafa Mzoughi Finally a positive comment about her
Wafa Mzoughi they should have her star in more movies
i loved her in Breakthrough, hadn't heard of her before she seems like a lovely lady (I'm from the Uk) I have to admit though I found her weight really distracting in the movie. I wondered if she was wearing a fat suit and wondered why, I googled and the person she was playing wasn't as big as her. When I found out it was real I felt really sad for her, her health.
Why is morbid obesity called PLUS SIZE now?
To sell more clothes.
Plus size is a way to describe a body. Especially when you deal with clothing.
I work at Ross and we have Junior, Ladies, Men’s, Young Men’s, boys, girls, infants, Woman’s World(The plus size section)
Exactly
This ain't normal, she isn't even healthy, her obesity has reached as if a disease and if left untreated idk how many years she has...
@@ayeshashahzad205 I agree. I find it so sad that she is ok with it. We are promoting everything unhealthy right now to honor individually. It's just not going to work long term and is so against Gods love for humanity. We are broken people and there is help out there. She is a superb actress, lovely lady, beautiful. I can't wait to see her shine in her true identify.
Being overweight should not be celebrated, like were ruing people’s lives and health. I’m not saying people should hate themselves, but maybe we should start to encourage weight loss and show the unhealthy sides of being overweight, and that it’s not “healthy” and ok.
Agreed I doubt she is saying that's she is healthy. But there is something a thin person can see when they look at an overweight and there are things going on inside. The inside stuff is very complex.
I hear what you’re saying but celebrated is not the correct term. We should simply allow people to be who they want to be. I believe plus sized people deserve love and respect as much as the next thin person. What ruins people’s lives is the judgement from society that causes way more scarring than any amount of weight. We should celebrate whenever a person is ready to drop the pounds and respect them if it’s not their goal at all
I agree with you. I’ve noticed that any time anyone brings up her weight on the comment section they get all kinds of hate for it. I’m all for body positivity, but everyone needs to be realistic.

Beautiful woman, great personality, unhealthy attitude towards her health though. Deny it. Call it fat shaming. Doesn't change what it is.
You have zero idea what an individual goes through. No one decides to be fat. You can’t possibly say anything to a fat person that they haven’t said to themselves a million times. It’s so awesome you think life is so simple. You think saying she’s fat, making some sort of emphatic statement is suddenly going to “wake” her up to an epiphany and you will have changed her life forever with your awesome truth that she just must not realize that she’s fat? You are the one that needs a wake up call. Guess what? She knows.
@@sharonhutchins5784 Obviously she doesn’t if she shows up day after day to be on TV looking like she has her own gravity well.
@@GozerTheGozerian some people love to be toxic and negative instead of having a positive attitude and actually offering help instead of unkind words. How many people offer fat people support by walking with them. Coming over and exercising, being an accountability partner, buying them a year to the gym. Talk is cheap and of you only "love" "care " about someone based in how they look your very narcissistic and shallow..
@@sharonhutchins5784 - I agree that no one truly knows what an individual goes through in life, but only if we don't know them personally. But, I absolutely disagree with you when you say, 'no one decides to be fat". That just sounds like an excuse. We definitely choose to be fat or unhealthy to a degree. Yes, some people have slower metabolisms than others, but at the end of the day an unhealthy diet and lack of exercise or no exercise = weight gain = unhealthy body. It is a fact.
@@sharonhutchins5784someone once told StripTessa that her opinion matters 😉
It's okay to be plus size. However, when you get to morbidly obese there is a reason the word "morbid" is in there. You don't see 70 year-old women her size because of the toll it takes on your organs. From watching a bunch of episodes of My 600 Pound Life, the one thing you realize is how much you have to physically eat to get that size. That and with some common sense changes you can drop a lot of that weight fairly fast. I wish her the best and hope she makes the change at some point.
I agree with you. I've noticed that any time anyone brings up her weight on the comment section they get all kinds of hate for it. I’m all for body positivity, but everyone needs to be realistic.

It's a shame you think she hasn't. Didn't you see the umpteen photos from her childhood she showed here? She's obviously struggled since childhood. Not every body is the same. Undoing what happened in childhood isn't a simple matter of "derrr, okay, I'll put the fork down." It's a f#$ing struggle to find what works for your body. Lucky you, you won the metabolism lottery! Here ya go! 🏆 You should be feeling smug about something like being a good person...oh, wait--you can't 😅
@@LindaC616 Nice reply to a 3 year-old comment. I was nothing but nice (unlike you). I said I wish her the best and hope she makes the changes for her health. Also, let's be honest for a second. It is PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE to be that size or anything over 400 lbs. unless your lifestyle contributes to it, period. There are lots of kids that are heavy and lose weight when they are older. Watch a few episodes of My 600 lb Life. The amount of calories, junk food, and lack of exercise involved to get to that size is off the charts, She may be your hero, but if she was abusing alcohol or drugs instead of food you would probably look at it different. Either way none of it is healthy.
@@Artstar2 your reading skills lack a lot. I have never said she's my hero. She's just a human being, who deserves to live her life. It's pretty obvious from your viewing choices that you need to see other people's lives in a train wreck to feel happy about your own
first of all, her body her choice. but! being obese myself.. i just cannot comprehend how anyone can be ok with being that big. Let me tell you its no picnic: your thighs rub so hard when you walk they bleed, you re constantly out of breath, your are sweating ll the time, you heart, lungs, kidneys, joints, muscles have to work soooo much harder to support such extra load, you have less energy, its generally a less active, much more complicated life... i wouldn't wish it on anyone. ever. Plus the health risks skyrocket with extra kilos! higher risk of diabetes, high blood pressure, varicose veins, leaver damage etc etc etc..... I mean its fine she accepts herself as she is right now... but staying in this state without making better choices to live a healthier lifestyle, is a crime towards her own self.
I still can't comprehend after entire life of being big, being on diets to please others why its anyone else's business or place to comment on someone's weight!
@@kahleesaangelofthenight2895 dont try to please others. Love urself and please URself by eating healthily and exercising regularly.
very well said
There choices our
@@kahleesaangelofthenight2895 is not to please others. Is for you and only for you, so you don’t die young from a heart attack or something worse.
Oooh Chrissy I love you so so much. KATE IS AN Amazing character , love all series. Big fan. You are so beautiful and never change.
She is so pretty
love this woman s2
Stop shaming fat people. It might be unhealthy but they deserve love too. Hating yourself does not make you suddenly want to be healthy.
FemBot I haven't seen many comments that are shaming Chrissy. Almost every comment is about the dangerous lessons that are taught by accepting this weight as normal. I asked my nine year old daughter what she thought when I showed her this video. She said that Chrissy is beautiful, but she needs to be healthier so she can live longer. Even a child can point out the beauty in Chrissy while also understanding that her weight is not healthy.
Agree with you. No one is fat shaming anyone. Its a fact that being this morbidly overweight = health risks and issues.
@@x-lobrown7832 Fat shaming and fatphobia is couched in "concerns" about a fat person's health so yeah its all about being offended by fat people daring to be recognized, represented, respected and fighting for their rightful place as _humans_ in society. Fat bigotry is the last acceptable and open form of bigotry in the first world and now that we are speaking up about it, the status quo is trying it's hardest to shut us down with these healthier so called "concerns" most of which has hateful tones. They don't care about health at all but the fact that fat people are becoming more visible and daring to be happy and self confident and not having to lose weight and the status quo can't _stand that_
Fat acceptance and body positivity is gaining ground in society, especially among younger people, whether you want it to or not. Whether you like it or not. Society is changing to a more compassionate, empathetic paradigm and its not going to be stopped by hateful people.
@Sophie Hart But why is it YOUR concern? You dont know this woman and what she does or doesn't do in her life. Further more you dont know her health status yet you ASSUME it due to the bias and bigotry you have been brainwashed into by the media, the diet industry and diet culture. Also even if she is "unhealthy" I dont see you passing judgement on the millions of unhealthy SKINNY people out there who are just as unhealthy as you purport fat people to be if not more so since skinny people are thought and believed to be "healthy" yet type diabetes and other metabolic diseases are on the rise due to something called skinny fat. Thins eat more unhealthy junk food than fat people just look at so.e of the mukbangs on here, yet you would pass on harsh, bigoted judgement on fat people if they did the same.
No one from any of these movements are trying to "glamorize" or "glorify" obesity. They just want more visibility and representation. They just want the vilification and discrimination to end amd to be treated with dignity and respect like all other humans.
You are not throwing the health cars here because you are oh so concerned about a fat person's health status. No you believe that the fatties are beneath you and you are afraid that if they gain rights and visibility it means that skinny people are no longer important or superior as they are now and body size would be equalized. It will happen in the future. You are afraid of losing the perch you so enjoy which is the crux behind your concern trolling.
Again the health of fat people does not matter as thin people can be just, if not more unhealthy, than fat people. Your issue with them is just pure prejudice and hatred which by the way, there is a study that has shown that sizeism is just as prevalent as racism and sexism. Another one states that fat people probably get these diseases because of constant inflammation due to high amounts of cortisol hormones in their bodies to due to their marginalization in society alone. Maybe do some more reading on REAL obesity research and not those that are funded by the diet companies. But I'm sure you won't because being hateful towards fat people increase that dopamine in your brain. Hate is a drug.
@@WeatherMondacicci you have people wanting government Healthcare. So she can use her freedom to get morbidly obese, but steal freedom from my family to pay for her choices?
Wow! Being from Europe, I have never seen a person that big in real life. Poor lady...
There is a show in England about obese people versus skinny people. Europe has obesity too.
They mustn't be from Germany
When I watch her in This is Us I constantly think how beautiful she is and how much I love her dresses.
I just lover her!
I'm proud that you show them - mom models can do great to and I'd love to see and here more people like you. Perfection don't make people good.
You are so beautiful.. I just started listening to your music.. what an amazing voice.. And good for you not letting anyone tear you down about your weight.. I too had been extremely overweight and and judged for it.. I just have been working on the weight issue and I'm down 100 lns.. screw anyone who judges you.. you are a beautiful soul...
I agree she is beautiful. But, let's get real here about her weight. She is morbidly obese and has even gotten bigger since the first season of "This is Us".

@@SilkyShish yes I agree her weight could become a problem in later years the truth must be recognised for her own sake, she's a beautiful lady with a beautiful voice, but she must face the facts her weight is a health problem, God bless her always ❤ 🇬🇧
@@maggieboo8142 Not to be rude, but to put it bluntly, her weight WILL become an issue as she continues to start to age. It is not a matter of "if", but "when". It is a fact that excessive weight, lack of exercise and poor diet all lead to major health, mobility and body issues. The only reason Chrissy is not experiencing the "weight" (no pun intended) of any healthy issues yet due to her obesity is she just turned 42 a week ago. Now she is at an age where her health and mobility will start to decline every year she ages. I don't know of you noticed in the last season of "This is Us",a large chunk of her scenes were with her sitting down while other cast members were standing. For her own health and mortality, she needs to lose weight. Also, if she wants to continue as an actress she unfortunately will need to lose weight as roles for her are limited. They shouldn't be limited as I don't believe in discrimination, but the hard fact is there are not many roles that require a morbidly obese actress except maybe for character roles.
Chrissy is amazing,we can all aspire to be as genuine and kind as her
I love Chrissy, but, I want to know, who is the cute little guitar player performing with her on Should've known better? He is a cutie. I love his hair cut also.❤️❤️

Omg. I just split with someone who only wanted me privately and not publicly.
Hello sweet soul friend how are you doing today?
Chrissy is such a beautiful woman and has the voice of an angel.
People hate when others aren't miserable or when they're happier than they think they should be. So she should hate herself because you do? Nah lol self love all the way❤️
self love means taking care of yourself, not getting so overweight, that is TRUE self love
Chris Rackley I know right. If I were here I’d be trying to get to the root of my weight gain issues!

Very proud of you. You inspire me.
She is lying to herself. I did too. Now I'm losing weight. 25lbs in 5 days at a fat boot camp. Humans are not made to be overweight. It is a serious epidemic. Her weight is not about beauty...its about her taking responsibility for the gift of life she's been given.
25 pound sin 5 days is nothing but water and not good. Lose the weight but do it healthy.
Better to lose weight slowly... it's more likely to stay off ...
Oldies but goodies Did you manage to keep the weight off? I love it when ppl have a "come to Jesus" moment and feel they now are in a position to talk down to someone else still struggling with an issue they have now "overcome". Please..keep lying to yourself.
Food is love...we fill the void with something...just happens you can't hide overeating! Her body is just so unusual. I am glad she embraces styles that I would never have the guts to wear!
We shouldnt praise obesity. I like her as a person, but its unhealthy...
I agree. It's the same as letting models be underweight.
but I LOVE that she is happy with who she is. its a good example for little kids
Azure Mind yeah i agree. But im also underweight for my age/height however I wouldn’t consider myself unhealthy, just cant gain weight for some reason :/
Self-acceptance is what's being praised.
No one is praising obesity. Did you even watch the interview? There's more to a person than their weight and people surely deserve accolades when they're warranted. She's on a hit tv show and wrote a book. Good for her!
I hate when people catagorize what and who people are ( your real).. Love it
She is awesome!
I love Chrissy
She is an amazing woman. Very inspiring
Chrissy Wish you would do more inspirational movies like Breakthrough! Wow, heart felt! and TV, This Is Us... You are Beautiful and have a Blessed ❤ heart . Love your music and have you on my CZcams loop so I can listen over and over ! Like, Go, I'm Standing With You.. Talking to God about you. Thank you for you being you and caring about people . This world needs your talent and TV should get a clue that most people are looking for real humans who have extra ordinary gifts and having the ability to interest and entertain today's population that are impatient with shorter attention spans.
People on here be like: "she has a beautiful soul" when that may be the case, but what they need to say is, "she needs help like the rest of obese America"
Really? And there isn’t an ugly Face epidemic. And a fake epidemic? And a let’s stave ourself and be skinny epidemic and even more unhealthy than an obese person. I know more healthy obese people than I do healthy skinny people.
Lisa Skinner stop spreading this incorrect information, it is just not okay. It’s better to be healthy and live a longer life. Not risk a heart attack early on or diabetes due to severe obesity. No one is insulting her when they want her to be healthy, they simply care. A person should lose weight from the motive of health not what others say about them
@@Lifewithlisalove Again..denial...there's no such thing as a healthy obese people..just as there's no such thing as a healthy anorexic or bulimic person. Stop spreading misinformation.
Yip your right. And its not as if she can't afford a professional to help.
God, she´s so lovely and endearing, I think she´s my new girl crush ♥
Why does she remind me of Amy Lee
A mix of Amy Lee and Jabba the hut maybe
Herbalattraction3000 😮😆
Chrissy should play Ursula in an upcoming little mermaid remake
Billy Ray this made me laugh out loud
Wow that's cold. 🤭
Such an inspiring woman.
If she is so confident with her body size, then why was her book cover (nowhere to be seen on this show BTW) so heavy Photoshoped?
Overeating and overweight is not about being molested as a child, or abused physically or mentally. It is about not learning from a young age when to eat, what and how much to eat. No structure, discipline or training was given to those who suffer from obesity.
It's not ok to be this way ..it's hard for your body and your heart .People lofe you ,because you are an exellent actress .But we worry about Your health .
I agree she is beautiful. But, let's get real here about her weight. She is morbidly obese and has even gotten bigger since the first season of "This is Us". She can barely walk or stand and most of her scenes in the last season have her sitting down while others are standing. She is now age 41 and this is the age where if one does not lose weight and adapt healthier lifestyle choices, they will start having serious weight and poor lifestyle related health issues. I doubt she will live past age 60 if she does not lose this weight. And her acting roles will be limited too.
As much as we all would love to embrace all body sizes and shapes, comments like mine are not about "fat shaming". We are trying to encourage "good health" and there is NO way she is healthy at this weight. No way.
@@SilkyShishlet's be real here. Your biggest fear in life would be to be overweight, so you watch things like this and make smug remarks because it makes you feel better about your own shallow self to witness someone else's struggle
@@LindaC616 Lol. So, now you are clairvoyant and know me? Lol. Give it a rest. You're now coming across as completely irrational and off your rocker. How old are you? 12? You think because I care about my health and not being overweight it makes me shallow and insecure? Lol. OMG! Your ignorant comments really make me laugh.
I care about my health and not being overweight because I want to be able to be alive and healthy for my kids and be alive to meet my grandchildren. And, as I continue to age, I want to be healthy and fit so, I am not disabled and unable to walk or move around because of being overweight. I want to be able to be able to walk up a flight of stairs and be able to breathe and not be hindered due to being overweight and unhealthy.
And anyone with any good sense should care about taking care about their health and weight so, they themselves don't suffer AVOIDABLE WEIGHT RELATED HEALTH ISSUES and where their loved ones are not having to be burdened with taking care of them due to their own poor lifestyle and poor health choices.
Grow up hunny and get a life.
@@LindaC616 I just took a look at your profile photo. You are overweight. That explains alot. Instead of attacking people for pointing out the reality of being overweight as being the cause of an early death and also the cause of avoidable health and body mobility issues, why don't you hit the gym and start eating healthier instead? That may help you with your obvious raging anger, resentment and insecurity towards the healthy fit people.
Great stories that Kelly has, she's just a bit rude to her guests and seems to want to focus in the pain
I admit that I feel aversion to such a body. Maybe because I tend to think of women's bodies as desirable, which hers is not. In any case I do feel discomfort, especially with that level of obesity and I came here because I wanted to hear what she had to say about it.
You are below average looking and she is rich and successful, so I don't think she would even be interested in you. Some men love voluptuous women.
@@carollynnecouchman4417 but there's a difference between voluptuous and critically obese. Most guys like a little meat not 400 pounds of it!
She should be ok with at least losing 100 pounds! It’s for her well being and health for goodness sake
I want her to lose weight to be healthy, she is already beautiful
I hope she gets help. That level of obesity is not ok-it’s sending the wrong message. There’s a difference between the average overweight person and someone morbidly obese. Her situation looks pretty dire-like diabetes, heart desease, arthritis, high blood pressure and you might not make it to your 60’s dire. She’s an intelligent woman and is aware of all the consequences. That cannot make anyone feel good. I’d like to hear that she’s doing something about it-that should be the message. You can be in her situation, still love yourself and because of that love, work to improve your health.
I agree.
She is beautiful inside Nd outside..!!!
No...No she is not. She it truly disgusting.
Listen no offence to anyone .. ok?? but do not make me feel like I am a mean person if I question how so big??? And it is no because i have issues with overweight people .. just asking how do you get so big.. that's all .. I love you anyway but why ??? no matter what we all say I know it's ok...I will never judge you...but it has to be hard for you too... love always
That’s the problem. You don’t have a right to know or to even ask.
I wish she could talk about something else other than her weight. Imagine an overweight woman not obsessively talking about her weight or having her character on a tv show also being obsessed with her weight. Endless weight obsession.
I’ve seen plenty of interviews where weight isn’t even brought up
and one year later, she hasn't lost a pound.
It’s not as easy when you are that heavy. Show some sympathy, pig.
Jesse it’s actually “easy” to lose weight at that size
Weight loss at a slow pace like 10 grams a week is highly recommended in order to keep in off longer. Hence, she doesn't compensate that loss the week following? It could become repetitive.
@@2011birch 10 grams is .022 pounds. It would take 50 weeks to lose 1 pound. She needs to lose 200 pounds. That's 200 years?
Obesity is not ok. ow is this different from being addicted to drugs? We would want to help that person. Would we want to be seen in public with an obvious drug addict? I hope she gets the help she needs as all the weight is a huge stress on her health.
Is that Justin Hartley from the soap opera Passions?
Yeah
Camera man was hardly able to capture her whole body in the frame 😂
I just wanna put a lot of 💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛hearts right here. I love her
Yes I don’t know her but I do know she won’t be here very long without making some serious changes in her life.
love chrissy.
Megyn fake AF
MSL5 Megan would shoot herself in the face if she gained 30 pounds much less 100
Some people love to be toxic and negative instead of having a positive attitude and actually offering help instead of unkind words. How many people offer fat, overweight, obese people/friends support by walking with them? . Coming over and exercising, being an accountability partner, esting healthy with them, buying them a year to the gym and going with them. Talk is cheap and if you only "love" "care " about someone based in how they look your very narcissistic and shallow. Love is an actions word so IF I was so concerned about someone's health or how they looked I would offer them actual physical help instead of unkind mean judgemental and narcissistic words that tear down and destroy. Running your mouth is easy but when you truly love and care about someone you take action and even if they dont want to lose the weight if the person is kind and caring and a true friend why does how they look on the outside matter more than who they are? Its vanity.
Exactly! And some of those people even the people here in the comments need to make other people feel bad in order to feel good about themselves
She's beautiful
Ya and then she was hospitalized!
Overw3ight is dangerous
She is right about everyone trying to fill the void with something. But that doesnt change the fact that extreme obesety is an illness, just like any other addiction. And while it is not ok to stigmatise this people, it is certanly not helpfull to glorify them for their body either.
*obesity
Pls point out where she glorified it, where she said how wonderful it is. Time stamp
Does she have a condition that makes it hard for her to loose weight?
Loosing weight takes a lot of mental discipline and I know how hard it can be
Laziness
She said her grandmother made lunch for her all the time...i think she ate her grandmother too....
Thats right. She loves food more than she loves her own personal well-being and body. Its unhealthy to be so big.
@@tanukimario7184 jerk
I have to ask why is this show asking about her weight
All this b.....s.... about how much people love her? You would not love her so much if she sat on your dining suite chair and broke it. Gosh why can't people be so honest.
Oh my gosh
❤❤❤
So she can actually lose weight. I thought she had a condition that would make her gain weight.
There is no such thing as a condition that keeps you 425 pounds. Other than food. Its a myth that super big people say
Google Lipedema
Yeah, but this is too big but I think it's great that she doesn't hold back when it comes fashion and dressing well for her size. That's a huge plus and says alot about her character because she obviously knows she's massively overweight, I don't think she's that stupid to not actually know that, but she doesn't hide it behind hideous clothes. She just probably has a discipline problem since carbs/sugar is highly addictive after a while. I've heard it can be just as addictive as heroin for some people so fat-shaming won't do anything obviously, but better understanding will.
I agree she is beautiful. But, let's get real here about her weight. She is morbidly obese and has even gotten bigger since the first season of "This is Us". She can barely walk or stand and most of her scenes in the last season have her sitting down while others are standing.

I think that weight doesn't matter but I see why people think otherwhise
“I know me!”
It’s not ok ...... it’s a life or death health risk and she could get personal chef and trainer and have surgery and get her health back
Justification for this weight is so sad.
Rest in piece chair
I just read an article about her feelings regarding her weight. She thinks she is healthy. 🤦 Lord help that ignorant woman and all of those who follow, before it's too late for them.
I hate her success makes some people and i think herself as well think it is OK to be unhealthy. Morbid obesity is not funny in the end. Ask Ralphie May... oh wait, he is dead. She needs help soon before another great talent is lost. And no I'm not putting her down people. Look up what morbid obesity means. She's there. Her organs are under extremely high stress and can't function like they should. Her heart for one being it is having to pump harder to get the blood to circulate properly.
I know right!! It’s so bad. I’m fighting a crazy hormonal imbalance and I can’t stop gaining weight no matter what. I’ve been thin my whole life. Being overweight is awful awful awful. I can feel my body giving out. 😫😫😫 like I don’t even get how she has the energy to do things!!
Meghan is just smoking hot and about 45 years old
She weights at. Least 180 kg common now i hope she looses the weight she is gorgeous tough
You cannot be confident or happy when you are the size of the Hidenburg. Sorry.
You can't, but others can. And when you grow and mature a bit, you'll understand that what you are not confident about is mutually exclusive to what others are unconfident about.
EYEoftheneedle here’s the great thing about getting older: you aren’t concerned with what others think of you.
Not worried about it. And you shouldn't be so worried about me, either, darling.
Cheryl Smith or as ugly as your mug
It is not okay to be the size of two fat people put together. Heck, even two skinny people put together is too much. Besides, Shamelessness is nothing to be proud of. Obesity is obscene and that’s all there is to it. Like it or not. It is the truth
I bet if she was dangerously thin people would try and help her but people allow her to be confidently obese and its okay in their eyes🙄smh
She is great actress but she is obese...I know what it is to deal with wait...I have been on diet from age 8 .... she should stop denial ..she is too big , she has hard time to get up or she can’t even hug herself... if she doesn’t want die she should stop eating herself to death ...I know it’s hard and it’s a struggle but everyone can do it!
Hello Mariola, how are you doing today?
nice voice but terrible weight, keep out of food please
Listen. I remember how Gabby Sidibe was raked over the coals after she won the Oscar. Chrissy is much bigger than Gabby and now she says she's plus sized?? Uh Uh!!
Uh, Gabby didn't win the Oscar. She was only nominated. But both she & Chrissy are disgustingly big.
Z😮😮
