​

But as Latifah and Pinkett Smith go on to discuss, much about obesity and
BMI is based on problematic racial and societal biases

​

I mean she's not morbidly obese but she gotta be honest with herself and realize she's big bodied

and it ain't gonna hurt to trim that down if she wants to extend that longevity

society might cater to overweightedness and lie to you by telling you big is beautiful but your health won't

Queen Latifah is obese. BMI isn’t accurate if you’re actually muscular. We can clearly see she’s not. A lot of women are delusional. There’s 5’6 180+ lb women out here claiming BMI isn’t accurate and they’re not fat because they go to the gym twice a week for 30 minutes.

Not as bad as I was expecting

36% body fat is fukking sick though

A whole third of your essence is fatty tissues. @CouldntBeMeTho

 

[Absolut]

But yeah Queen Latifah knows she is not in shape. shyt she has never been in shape as far as I know lol. That's the whole reason why I cant watch that Equalizer show she's on.

Them titties still there

Why are Africans not fat if they are supposed to be fat since it’s “normal”???

The trainer responds

UPDATE Tuesday, June 7 6:30 P.M.: Jeanette Jenkins, a trainer and health coach who says she worked with Queen Latifah, tells Glamour in a statement: “I did not measure Queen Latifah’s BMI. I do not use BMI charts. Those charts are based on your height to weight ratio, and they do not provide enough information. I measured her body fat percentage using two methods: bioelectrical impedance and with calipers. Body fat percentage is not the same as BMI. I then told her that she was over 36% body fat, which is in the obese category and the amount of body fat she carried at that time put a stress on her heart and increased her risk of heart disease. These are scientific facts backed by research from the CDC. Heart disease is the number one killer worldwide and when you are in the overweight or obese category for body fat percentage you increase your risk of heart attack, stroke, diabetes, and the list goes on. The clips on the Red Table Talk do not reflect the truth of the actual fitness assessment I conducted.”

This her?

Good for her. Fatifah trying to mess up her reputation

BMI is a stupid indicator (anybody who lifts will fall into overweight even if perfectly healthy), but if what the trainer say is true, she's twisting what really happened to make it more confortable for her.

 

[Orbital-Fetus]

Them faces Willow be making

like she gotta suck the fat outta QL's anus after the show...

 

[Antwon Mitchell]

I've never really considered Queen Latifah to be fat but more just a big and tall woman. She's never looked fat at all throughout her career.

BMI's just like many other medical health charts and indicators were made specifically with White ppl in mind.

Cacs determined what's considered to be a healthy BMI and weight based off their own genetics and physical attributes so Black people along with everybody else (non-white) had no choice but to fall in line to their standard since historically in America majority of health specialists and doctors have been White plus the lack of Black medical specialist and our own medical sources (hospitals, health analysis, etc, etc).

She made some good points.
