First off, obesity …
First off, obesity is relative. Everyones body is different, heights are different, etc etc. My uncle eats nothing but crisps, literally, nothing but crisps and chocolate, and he’s a pencil. I you not.
I see nothing wrong with Allison either in her past or present images. Her past images have a LITTLE bit of a chin, but otherwise I have no problem with her. I dont see her as obese, I just see her as a bigger girl. Which you do get.

you cant lose weight by taking pills and such, you have to combine those pills with diet and sport, jog,put a few sweatshirts on you and an ipod, and run, everyday, you’ll see that everyday you will have more power to run. i watched some show, some dude was on a surgery which took off 5 kilos. but hey, by having diet and running everyday,you loose 5 kilos in a week!!!!

Listen honey theres no such thing as a “normal” weight! it all depends on your build n bone structure, even some doctors are now saying that the BMI is inacurate as it doesnt take into acount different frame types! As long as you eat healthy stuff n look after yourself u can be any size…usually your skin tells u if u aint eating good enough…if it breaks out n itches alot then try cutting out some junk n munch of fruit instead….u still get sugar but its natural ones so better for u
