This is so depressing, the poor girl. She's likely been fat-shamed her whole life and is now being reverse-fat-shamed. She can't win.

Notice how the article is written such that the author gets to body snark without actually body snarking?
I'm so glad someone said this. So spot on.
"She's also an outlier in that at 5'4" and 105 lbs, her height-weight combination put her slightly below the threshold doctors who use the BMI scale would consider "healthy." She's also below what Weight Watchers would consider healthy for her height."

My grandparents are all dead. Maybe you should check your grandparent privilege.
I don't much about Jillian Michaels personally or what she shills (other than that she seems to yell a lot as her main motivational technique) but can we please get rid of the idea of this "makes a living off of women hating their bodies"?

I had to Google that: for a brief, wonderful moment, I thought Cuccinelli had tried, inexplicably, to pick a fight with the director of Heat and Manhunter. You'd lose, Cooch. He'd sic Crockett and Tubbs on you.
That reporter sounds like an asshole to me.
My first (idiotic) reaction was, "WHAT HAVE THEY BEEN FEEDING HER?!?!?!"
