I don't, and neither did that sub. Fat people often came to the sub asking to be insulted as motivation to improve their health. I love all people. I hate being unhealthy, and want to encourage others to be healthy for their own good and for their families.

That is definitely not what /r/fatpeoplehate was about.

It was filled with stories about how disgusting fat people are. There wasn't anything motivational about it.

/r/fatlogic is more like what you describe.

I remember fatlogic! I liked that one and I didn't even need to lose weight, I had other things I wanted motivational help for but it seemed so nice. Found it when looking for fitness advice.

/r/fatlogic is actually the reason I lost 70 pounds. I had no idea about calories in/calories out.

I think fph got banned for some really privacy violating screensnaps of people's private social media pages, family photos, including their faces etc. They were very personal attacks on private citizens, which were out of order.
