Even though I know I probably shouldn’t be the sort of people I’m jealous or those with extremely high metabolism who are able to eat what they want and not gain any weight.
Also, I actually have it as headcanon that Pinkie Pie has high metabolism which is why I believe she’s able to eat so many sweets, desserts, exc and not gain any weight. Admittedly her high level of activity could also play a part in her not being over weight despite eating a whole cake.

Cholesterol levels, in particular, are highly dependent on your genes. I myself am overweight and don’t eat nearly as healthy as I should, and my cholesterol levels are exemplary. Whereas I know some people who are both thinner, better fit, and who eat better than I do, who have to take medication for high cholesterol. It can be very variable.

Personally, I think Celestia should portray her sister as a raging, hormonal PMS monster.
“This tea is lukewarm! And what areth thou snickering at, henchpony? Doest thou take me for thine jester? Is it mine charge to entertain thee? Doest thou take me for a fool!?”

I’m a bit chubby, but everyone recognizes that I’m healthy, and I don’t buy this “skinny=healthy” bullcrap. Surprisingly, I was never bullied for being “fat” or something like it.
@Beau Skunky
Oh yeah, I have a female friend who, going by BMI, is quite overweight. The thing is, she’s built like a fucking tank, does ten-mile runs almost daily, and so on. Sure, she’s pretty chubby, but beneath that fat there’s a hell of a lot of hard muscle.
@CleverTwist
To be fair, there are some chubbier people (not “morbidly obese” people, mind you) who are perfectly healthy, and some actually have more muscle, and less cholesterol then thinner people. So actually a li’l chub’ is ok for some people. It’s when there’s too much it’s a problem.
In fact, women are supposed to have a li’l more fat on their body then men.
The opposite extreme that “you have to be skinny/anorexic to be attractive” that the media presents is actually just as bad, and some women are literally starving themselves to death, because of that. So being too skinny isn’t much better really, and they’re killing themselves with that too.
It really is special snowflake syndrome. The idea that “I’m so unique and special, everyone must acknowledge how unique and special I am even if they don’t see it.”
Yeah, but not in a good way. People with weight problems are killing themselves with their lifestyle choices, and all we do is go “woah, glad I’m not like that.” And I’m not talking about the ones with medical conditions that cause weight gain/loss, I mean the food addicts. The ones who don’t know how to put down the fucking fork but then go “why am I so fat and unattractive?”
It’s the bullshit spread around by the cancerous Fat Acceptance crowd and their equally cancerous slogan like “healthy at any size” that give way to people becoming like that woman on the show. 600 pounds, dying, living off government support because she can’t work or take care of herself. People that become massive, amorphous piles of human filth that are nothing but burdens on themselves, their families and society.

No it does not, but you really shouldn’t watch trash-tv. That stuff is for the grade-A couch potatoes, who watch 36 hours worth of trash-tv in a day.
Oh yeah. The story of a life-threatenly obese woman getting wheeled around for TV because her mental and physical health are in such poor disarray makes for high caliber entertainment…
