I am going through this now, so jealousy is hardly on my mind.
When you lose weight as you are older, it often shows in your face, not always in a flattering way.
Awhile back I mentioned myself, Leah, and Heidi from philosophy. Fat is a great filler, and loss of it can make your face look older than before. It isn't criticism, it is fact.
I do remember Leah some years ago as slender, then she had surgery (hysterectomy maybe) and gained weight. Now she is in the process of losing weight. I would feel uncomfortable (if I were her) with certain comments. Might make me ask myself if I really looked bad before!
It is said that the older you are, the more careful you have to be not to be too thin or it makes you look gaunt and older.

Overweight people are so jealous when someone like Leah loses lots of weight.... just like when Patti the host from several years ago got very thin Poor Patti was relentlessly picked on and bullies for becoming so slender.
.... I am sure it is the overweight people on this board who say how leah is TOO THIN... FACE LOOKS OLD. Leah looks just fine... so much better with the lost pounds. She does not look sick LOL!
I don't think she was picked on "for becoming so slender." She was picked on because her personality changed after losing the weight. She became another person and it was not a better person, in my opinion. The weight loss was great but her attitude and egotistical displays were not flattering at all.

She never seemed too thin or gaunt to me. I can't say the same for Leah. I have to agree with the OP. She is (or appears to be) too thin. And, no, I'm not overweight or jealous or even concerned for her health.
@Citrine1 I agree with your entire paragraph, except the last sentence. I am concerned about Leah's health. Have been for several months.

All these people should mind their own business and leave Leah alone

@qbetzforreal So many people thought he was talking about getting high. But he wrote that song from The Book of Acts in the Bible.

I think Leah looks younger in her new slim body. I do think she needs a new hairdo because she is has a small face and all of that hair doesn't do it justice. But it is her choice: her body, her hair, etc.
I need to lose 20 pounds and if I could get my behind smaller I don't care if my face also thins out!

Sorry ladies but I feel we are all body shaming when commenting how "wonderful" a woman looks after a significant weight loss. Just how did that person look before?? Leah has always been beautiful in my book.
