What is too fat and what is not? And who sets the standards for unhealthy overweight?

For actress Sophia Thomalla, this limit is pretty obvious. Against the celebrity magazine Closer she said now: "60 kilos - perfectly fine, 70 kilos also completely fine. But then everything that goes over it, from a certain height, I say then: watch out!"

Related to Sophia Thomallas words on the model Ashley Graham, who was the first plus-size model on a cover of Sports Illustrated to see. "A 90-pound woman on a Sports Illustrated is just as dangerous to me as someone who says, Uh, you have to weigh 50 kilos to be perfect."

This is how Ashley Graham looks with well over 70 kilos and dress size 44.

Thomalla, who has trimmed to a small size 34, is obviously much closer to the 50 kilos than 70 or even 90 kilos. A slap in the face for very, very, many German women, because many women carry around 70 kilos and more - no matter what their height. Shall we feel bad now and take care, Mrs. Thomalla?

To feel good, to be fit, to be thin, to be healthy : The pressure is also increasing for women who may only be struggling with a few kilos. It's not about being "just" skinny anymore. We all have to be as fit as possible. Exercise every day, detox as much as possible and enjoy little. What woman can do that permanently? It is obvious that such statements by Sophia Thomalla also help to make women who are in a normal weight range feel bad.

Sophia Thomalla herself obviously does not scratch the 70 kilo mark. And that shows them quite clearly and again and again in small, tight dresses and erotic magazines.

What we wish for, Mrs. Thomalla: Every woman is to be seen as an individual. One can not generalize that a woman who weighs over 70 kilograms at a certain height, is immediately unhappy, unhealthy or too fat . And that's exactly what we would want from a seemingly strong woman like you. Because if you take too much care, you will eventually miss it.
