Does that really happen? I guess that probably does happen, but all of the Fat Pride people I've met seem so non-judgmental.

I've never seen it in person, but I've heard people who'd formerly felt part of Fat Pride complain of it.

May just be something in the minds of the people who are trying very hard to eat healthy and work out and still gaining pounds.

As well intentioned as an event geared towards giving up clothing that doesn't fit anymore on the basis that one should just give up trying to lose weight, it's hard not to resent that kind of discourse when you have no intention of staying at your weight.
