Becky talking about fasting

Was funny considering what a fat pig she is. I'm not against heavy people but she is so vile. She's brainwashing children to do things for "God" that she isn't doing herself. What a POS.

Um, no. I'm diabetic, and I can tell you that diabetes generally makes one lose weight. I've never heard of anybody getting fat because of diabetes. That's ridiculous.

You'll see obesity associated with Diabetes because Diabetes is often triggered by high sugar intake, and high consumption of sugar leads to obesity.

She's actually diabetic. That's what causes her weight issues.

Umm....No.

My husband is diabetic and he is rail-thin at 5'6" and 125 pounds. Thanks for playing.

Oh God. There's nothing more inconvenient than an old queen with a head cold!

Then I'm guessing your husband has type 1.

The person you replied to just got the direction of causality wrong, but the association between type 2 diabetes and obesity is very real. Obesity is a cause of type 2 diabetes, not the other way around.

No actually it is type 2; we confirmed it with his doctor. Type 1 is also known as juvenile diabetes because it usually starts in childhood; my husband's began when he was fifty-three. Type 2 is also called adult-onset diabetes, and he is not insulin-dependent, which most type 1 patients are.

You are ignoring the only person who made any sense here and that is Frenchtoastt ..... to say diabetes typically afflicts or causes people to be skinny is a ridiculous statement. Type II diabetes is the most common form, and it is caused by high blood sugar. This is typically the result of a diet high is sugars, which the body cannot metabolise well enough. When someone is consuming too much sugar, they tend to be overweight to obese.

So, the most common form of diabetes, type II, is many times caused by the intake of too much sugar in ones diet, which leads to obesity. And yes, there is a VERY GOOD chance that this Becky, who looks to easily be 300lbs, has diabetes (and most likely hasn't fasted a day in her life).
