The fat acceptance movement I have no problem with. Shaming people for their appearance is a terrible thing and is also counterproductive.

However, it seems that the FA movement has morphed mostly into the fat celebration movement and the fat denial movement.

This I don’t understand.

By fat denial, I mean that most of the movement now seems to be intent on disseminating the notion that fat, health and quality of life are in no way related, when the evidence shows a pretty clear relation.

I’ve been fat, and I’ve been skinny.

Trust me here — skinny is way better.
