200 Pound Beauty was amazing but not what I expected. Like others, I really did enjoy this drama. But, like many others, I had a lot of criticsm. 200 Pound Beauty promotes such a negative message especially to younger girls that may be experiencing these same feelings Hanna had. This entire "Get Surgery, be skinny and pretty and no fat and ugly" is such a bad thing to promote. Don't get me wrong, getting surgery for YOU is completely different from getting surgery to solely fit into what society deems as acceptable. I would not be having this criticism if Hanna got surgery for HER and not in order to fit into a standard and to get a guy to like her (a guy who obviously liked her before she had the surgery). However, I did enjoy how this drama shed light on the rampant fatphobia that is prevalent within most societies and how simple 'teasing; could cause someone to hate themselves to the point they would want to undergo such drastic changes.
