Can we please have a mature conversation about this?

Brought this topic up because I saw a picture today that really tipped me over to the side of believing that weight really is important when choosing who to cosplay.

The person I’m focusing on is the girl on the left. When I first saw this, I was incredibly confused because of how much of a missed opportunity this cosplay is. Her outfit is good. Her wig is good. Her skin is clear and her makeup is nice.

But she’s fat. She’s practically bulging out of the collar and I think it’s a real shame because all of the other parts of her composition are great. She knows how to dress, how to do makeup etc but all of her efforts are brought down by a physicality that frankly just does not match the character she’s dressed as in any way.

I really can’t put the question any other way than this: If you have the dedication to learn all the skills necessary to cosplay, why can’t you lose weight and take your cosplay from a 5 to a 10?

>> No.10257765

That being said it's still better that they're out and being social than cooped up and eating more.
I always figured that one of the best motivators for getting your weight under control is to be around people of a healthy weight.

I think character hair choice has a lot to do with it sometimes. Imo short hair like the girl in OP doesn't flatter her much but maybe if she cosplayed a girl character with a hairstyle that frames her face better it wouldn't be so jarring. Still would look better if she lost weight though.

To be honest, I think she looks adorable as Naofumi...

As you mentioned, the cosplay, wig, and makeup look nice so it turned out great.

Would it look nicer if she was thinner? Yes. But does she really need to be that invested in a cosplay? No, she doesn't.

I know some people really like to go all out and get fit for cosplay, but not everyone is like this.

Cosplay is a hobby, she isn't an actress that needs to be x shape to get the part.

You can have the dedication to learn all the necessary skills to cosplay, but you don't need to change your lifestyle for a hobby.

That’s pretty much epigenetics though. Being overexposed to food at a young age predisposes you to obesity partially because your gene expression has been altered. Of course, like you said, it’s also partially because of learned behaviours. If simplified, losing weight is predominantly still calories in calories out. But human behaviour is complex and it’s silly simplify. If your goal really is to help someone lose weight, you have to take into account that a messed up metabolism does indeed have an effect on their motivation to diet.

Anime characters are drawn ‘default’, kind of like how stickmen are. If you live in a western society, you probably see them as white. It’s not like pink hair is tied to any ethnicity. Sometimes, there are anime characters who are specifically pointed out to be a certain ethnicity though and are given extra attributes. If American, they tend to be blonde, blue eyed (and have huge noses and/or tits). If Arabic, dark skin, some sort of headscarf, gold jewellery. If Chinese, extra squinty eyed, qi pao, aru.

Effort in fitness is just as important in serious cosplay as effort in craftsmanship. Your body is just as much a prop as paint, foam, etc.

Casual cosplay is fine, doesn't really matter, but if you're really serious about a cosplay, you shouldn't expect to be taken seriously if your physique doesn't match that of the character at least somewhat. Being too lazy for the gym is no excuse if you're investing hundreds of dollars and/or hours into a cosplay.

Convince me otherwise.

You can see that she didn't adapt the cosplay design to her bodytype ( letting the wig's back longer and making the shoulders stronger ) I think it's very important to make your cosplay look good.

Can I ask a tangentially related question?
There's this girl in my cosplay friend group that is obscenely fat, yet she thinks she's a supermodel. This in itself isn't a problem, if she's happy with herself that doesn't effect me, but the problem is that she has this obsessive idea that guys are trying to "creep" on her or try to flirt with her or whatever when they are clearly not even close to interested in her. How do I break it to her that she's absolutely delusional and 99.9% of men are likely not attracted with her and likely would not "creep" on her like she thinks they do.
I don't think its healthy for her to continue on being this delusional but at the same time I think telling her the truth will do more harm then good.
What do?

Are you her friend? If no, no need to do anything. If yes, then you can put in your input. I.e. Oh I didn’t interpret his actions as flirting, what makes you say so?

source: am fat. was babysitter. had kids telling me how pretty i was constantly despite being fat and at best a 4/10.

if they like your face, then you're pretty.

I know it wasn't just these kids because I got asked to watch them while a friend was over, and told her to just drop em off.

They kept making fun of my friend/calling her ugly until I gave them a talking to and told them to go apologize. I was embarrassed, she was embarrassed. Not a good time.

The weird thing was I still think that friend is prettier than I am. She's smaller than me and has really pretty hazel eyes.

Being overweight back then was a sign of wealth and thus was seen as desirable because it meant they could afford to eat in excess. The lower class were always thin and malnourished because there was no money for food. So yes 200 lb 'landwhales' back then would have made them loose their fucking minds in desire because it would mean that the woman was extremely wealthy. It was the flapper fashion movement and twiggy that really changed society's preference to 'skinny'. There were literally adverts in the victorian times and even some in the 40s and 50s selling things that's sole purpose was to gain weight for women to be more desirable. People were obsessed with Marilyn Monroe who wasn't plus sized by any means but she had more meat on her then the norm and people aspired to gain her shapeliness. The entire 'skinny is most desired' is a clever marketing ploy that really sells us a numerous amount of products, so hats off to them I must say. It really is a show of how this world is pretty much run by the marketing and fashion industry on a society that enjoys pitting everyone against one another and banking on our shame and dissatisfaction with ourselves.

It literally gives two arguments in the article that indicate it was not an indicator of beauty standards at the time. That it is a fertility statue with exaggerated features.

"Catherine McCoid and LeRoy McDermott hypothesize that the figurines may have been created as self-portraits by women. This theory stems from the correlation of the proportions of the statues to how the proportions of women's bodies would seem if they were looking down at themselves, which would have been the only way to view their bodies during this period. They speculate that the complete lack of facial features could be accounted for by the fact that sculptors did not own mirrors. This reasoning has been criticized by Michael S. Bisson, who notes that water pools and puddles would have been readily-available natural mirrors for Paleolithic humans"

No one takes glorified dress up conventions seriously. The likelihood is that someone's gonna have to really consider their health and well-being to lose weight rather than be pathetically hung up over convincing others they're actually a 2D character.

A convention's original purpose was for people to gather to express their interests and make new friends. If it happened that they were accurate, then that was cool. If they weren't, it wasn't a big deal.
Things are chill among mature con attendees who don't take themselves too seriously.

The only types of people losing sleep over not being able to accurately skinwalk a cartoon character are people who failed in their respective educations and careers, who now have the miserable task of either turning their hobby into a workhorse; or desperately clinging to relevancy by claiming to be king or queen of costhot mountain.

Finding yourself not obese, as if that's not the outcome for most people who've lived on earth, isn't an accomplishment. You're still a loser gatekeeping other losers.

Rubens is brought up a lot specifically because he had an unusual fixation on fatness due to the way rolls of fat and muscle allowed for more dramatic shadows and forms. Even his horses and other animals are rippling with fat.

Did all the fat go to your brain, too?
Waist to hip ratio, on average, is lower with a lower BMI.
High BMI is correlated with a high WHR due to increased relative fat deposits in the abdomen and decreased relative fat deposits in the buttocks.
In other words, thinner people tend to have a greater percentage difference between their waist and hips.

Yep. Just part of having girl body. Any weight fluctuations you roll the dice where the fat went/left from. Gain weight? First time round suddenly grow big fat hips. Loose weight? Suddenly boobs appear (same bust width but your waist is suddenly 3 inches smaller and you're now three cup letters bigger). Gain weight again? Suddenly become horrible barrel shape. Loose weight again? Say goodbye to boobs and become banana. Gain weight again? Oh you're a rectangular fridge now. Loose weight? Good knows, maybe you'll turn into a cloud shape.

Sometimes I think god was high or drunk when he made human girls. Dudes? Yeah, all straight lines and easy to sew for. Girls? Throw in a bunch genetic code and sqoushed out some silly putty, they come out all weird different body shapes and then companies make "standard size" sewing patterns that "fit most common bodies", which means they fit no body because nobody is "common" apparently, so everybody's walking around in clothes that don't fit them, we need changing rooms and an actual fashion industry to figure out what we can wear and look good in, and also fuck periods because they suck.

Do what makes you happy though, but if you're cosplaying a thin character unironically when you're very overweight just know some people will look at you and think certain ways. It's unavoidable. If that doesn't bother you and it makes you happy then great; keep doing what you do.

>asks for a mature discussion then proceeds to imply fat people just choose to be like that

The misunderstanding that fat folks could just easily decide not to be fat is an incredibly harmful one. There are genetic factors, metabolic factors, psychological factors, and no two people are exactly the same in these areas, meaning something that maybe comes very easily for you will be much more difficult for another person. You might enjoy working out, you might be able to change your weight very easily, you might naturally crave healthy foods or have a faster metabolism that makes you naturally thin. Another person may have factors that make those things very difficult, and forcing themselves to do them may actually be more harmful than good.

I was a skinny, active kid and then I got fat the instant I hit puberty. I've had stretchmarks on my boobs and hips since I was 12, I put on weight so fast. I was physically active, in sports, had a normal relationship with food, but I still got fat. When I was in my early twenties I decided I really wanted to get thinner, and I exercised hard every day for a year, dieted, and all that happened was I put on muscle and got thicker.

This is the body I have and I've accepted I'm not going to have another one. Accepting that and still allowing myself to indulge in the things I enjoy isn't "being lazy" or "promoting an unhealthy lifestyle." It's accepting that there will be things I won't be able to change about myself without making unhealthy choices. I'm not going to develop an eating disorder just so other people will think I'm acceptable to look at.

"Just eat less" is an unhealthy behavior.

It's not "developing an eating disorder" to eat less if the current amount you are eating is too much. If anything, right now you have an eating disorder.

>> No.10265029

>>10265024
You're assuming that because a person is fat that they are eating too much/have an eating disorder and I've just explained why that's a simplistic and wrongheaded viewpoint. Calories describe units of energy, not nutrition, vitamins etc, and they don't take into account someone's other dietary requirements. Starving yourself can actually trigger your body to store more fat.

But you won't listen because you're likely someone who thinks fat folks are just deciding to be fat and turn into uncontrollable animals around food.

>You're assuming that because a person is fat that they are eating too much

It's not an assumption, it is objective reality. If you are fat, you are eating more than your body needs so it stores the excess calories as fat. If you are eating too many calories while not getting enough vitamins and minerals, your dietary choices are to blame.

You need to count calories. Losing weight doesn't happen in the gym. It happens in the kitchen. An overwhelming majority of people who don't count calories yet say they're dieting grossly underestimate how much they're eating.

If you were counting calories and not losing weight then it could be a thyroid issue. Otherwise if you're happy the way you are then that's great too.

>Total energy expenditure and resting metabolic rate in the subjects with diet resistance (group 1) were within 5 percent of the predicted values for body composition, and there was no significant difference between groups 1 and 2 in the thermic effects of food and exercise.
>Low energy expenditure was thus excluded as a mechanism of self-reported diet resistance.
>In contrast, the subjects in group 1 underreported their actual food intake by an average (+/- SD) of 47 +/- 16 percent and overreported their physical activity by 51 +/- 75 percent.
>Although the subjects in group 1 had no distinct psychopathologic characteristics, they perceived a genetic cause for their obesity, used thyroid medication at a high frequency, and described their eating behavior as relatively normal (all P < 0.05 as compared with group 2).

>CONCLUSIONS:
>The failure of some obese subjects to lose weight while eating a diet they report as low in calories is due to an energy intake substantially higher than reported and an overestimation of physical activity, not to an abnormality in thermogenesis.

Perhaps you legitimately have a thyroid condition then and need treatment. That being said after you get treatment you can probably drop the weight
Also it's not an eating disorder if you know when to stop, and exercises in mental self control and abstinence are healthy.
>t. fasted for two weeks
That being said I'm a guy so you may have some additional difficulty doing that courtesy of your hormones. You also can't completely cut carbs because of that. All the same you can still portion restrict or do OMAD.

Losing weight or fighting an addiction is physically not too hard (except for the potential withdrawals with things like caffeine or harder drugs), but with weight loss there is the issue of food addiction being mentally really difficult to get over just like lots of other addictions. Maintaining weight is easy as fuck but losing is super hard for people with legit food addictions that have to consume a little of their drug daily to survive but stop themselves from over indulging. If it was easy to do fewer people would be obese. Being fat is easy so a good chunk of people in places that make it easy to get fat stay fat.

"In another study, Mattson and colleagues explored the effects of intermittent and continuous energy restriction on weight loss and various biomarkers (for conditions including breast cancer, diabetes and cardiovascular disease) among young overweight woman [...]. They found that intermittent restriction was as effective as continuous restriction for improving weight loss, insulin sensitivity and other health biomarkers.

Mattson has also researched the protective benefits of fasting to neurons. If you don’t eat for 10–16 hours, your body will go to its fat stores for energy, and fatty acids called ketones will be released into the bloodstream. This has been shown to protect memory and learning functionality, says Mattson, as well as slow disease processes in the brain."
[...]
"“Caloric restriction, undernutrition without malnutrition, is the only experimental approach consistently shown to prolong survival in animal models,” Freedland and colleagues stated in a study on the effects of intermittent fasting on prostate cancer growth in mice [...]. In the study, mice fasted twice a week for 24 hours, but were otherwise permitted to eat at liberty. During nonfasting days, the mice overate. Overall, they did not lose weight, counteracting whatever benefits they might have seen from fasting. Intermittent fasting with compensatory overeating “did not improve mouse survival nor did it delay prostrate tumor growth,” the study concluded.

To improve health, the goal should be to lose weight by reducing the total amount of calories consumed, suggests Freedland, rather than focusing on when those calories are consumed. “If you [don’t] eat two days a week, and limit what you eat the other five days, you will lose weight. It’s one approach to losing weight,” he says. “I’m not sure it works any better than cutting down slightly seven days a week.”"

Not everyone cosplays professionally or for competitions. I know its a really usual concept for you unnecessarily competitive bitches to understand since youre too busy constantly comparing yourselves to others, but a lot of cosplayers at cons dress up purely for fun. Like a majority of the cosplayers at cons do casual cosplay or dress up not expecting their picture to be taken. They dress up for the same reason people dress up for halloween despite not having the body type: for fun.
People can take the time to learn all the necessary skills for cosplay and not lose any weight because its just a hobby.

Lol cherry pick ive seen momo kun in person she isnt thick or reallly curvy she is fat with a flabby ass. Its hilarioys how non white have takin the word thick and changed it to fat women when us blacks used the word was mesnt to describe girls shaped like video vixens and the body shape kim k and all these instagram models try to fake using plastic surgery. Momo stomach is literally spilling over her gut, she has had had lipo annd wears waists trainers/shape wear. Lol withput all that bitch is fat as fuck only lame ass weebs boost this ugly plain bitch up. I swear cosplay is safe haven for ugly average looking white women who would never get sny attention from men in a real world context.

This. Sure, OP's pic would be better if she wasn't fat, but she's not doing this as professional or competitive thing. Lots of people have fun with cosplay without setting out to be the very best of all time and the most perfect 1:1 representation of the character possible.

Because it takes 1-2 years to lose significant amounts of weight. Dieting/exercising/cooking/shopping become a part time job on top of whatever else you have to do. And chances are, the moment you fall off the stringent diet/exercise plan, you’re going to fucking balloon. So that’s if you get sick, if you get hurt, or if you work some extra overtime, you’re pissing away all that time and effort.

No one wants to invest 10-15 hours a week for two years to look slightly nicer in their hobby, which is dressing up like cartoon characters. That’s stupid.

I personally don't like cosplaying a character if my weight is bad, as it feels like I'm doing a disservice to the character and also I don't want to look like shit in public.

Cospay has actually helped me come to terms with how bad my weight is now and is motivating me to try and lose it.

About 5 years ago my thyroid went all shit and I put on a ton of weight super quick. Then it just became easy to pile it on and I've been eating more and more crap etc etc.

There's a load of cosplays I wanna make now I can sew and craft better but I don't wanna be overweight while wearing them.

So there's some positivity for the thread I guess?

Also jealous of women who can put on weight but it doesn't go straight to their arms. My arms look huge, red and gross right now and I'm always confused seeing girls with skinny faces and arms yet they're HUGE everywhere else. Like, wtf.

Its considered OK to genderbend a character. We frequently see chibi versions of a character. If it becomes a thing to depict thicc versions of a character, Id be OK with that.

Artistically, a thicc version would be more successful with characatured armor and accessories. But bad cosplay is still better than no cosplay.

If you think being fat especially as fat as these cosplayersd you anons have posted is healthy in any manner....You must be ants on head retarded. These people are SICK and will DIE from heart disease before 40. You are not only promoting their lifestyle, you ENCOURAGE IT! It would be like telling a schizo to listen to the voices that they hear! it's okay to listen to the voices in your head anon! You should do whatever they say no matter what.
I never say this usually, but kill your selves. Because all you're doing is encouraging others to ruin their lives even further

The whole fat acceptance thing is being used as a crutch for some of these cows and to me when I see fat cosplayers all I can think is lack of self control and no real consciousness of what they ACTUALLY look like as a blobulous form that waddles around cons.
