Why is everyone so obsessed with her being skinny? Sure it's a goal of hers but honestly this story would be interesting even if she never lost it. There is a ton of progress happening- she is making so many connections, setting up training to be stronger, establishing a place within the family....she just isn't losing any weight. Which to be honest isn't a quick thing. It has always annoyed me that losing weight is so fast and so focused on in manga like these, and I'm not even fat. Let fat girls have a few chapters of a hero who looks like them y'all will live. If I was fat and reading this I would be depressed af. Everybody just cares about the mc's weight, meanwhile the plot is super interesting. I like that she isn't making her life about being thin- historically there were boatloads of wealthy and powerful and fat women who did cool shit- check out Catherine the Great. Also from the perspective of someone who works out a lot, I have seen very few people successfully keep weight off and stay fit by obsessing over it and rushing. If you try to make too extreme of a diet you will just end up yo-yo-ing. Much smarter to commit to eating better long term and sticking to a exercise routine, even if you lose the weight slower, and eat some cookies along the way. Its about sustainable long term habits. So few people are actually going to go their whole life being able to literally never indulge or slip up. 🙄
