So then you're not losing weight for cosplay reasons, you're losing weight because it's what you personally want to do with your body.

I don't think that's the distinction OP was making.

I read it as, it doesn't matter whether it's for cosplay or any other personal reason, OP is tired of people telling them "it's okay to be fat" as though they're secretly(?) doing it because they care about others' opinions instead of for themselves

I think my point is - if you say you're losing weight for cosplay reasons, of course people are going to say you don't need to lose weight for cosplay reasons, because it is true that you don't need to lose weight for cosplay reasons.

But OP didn't say "they need to lose weight for cosplay reasons," they said they want to.

Then other people are going like "you don't need to" and they're going "who said it's a need? It's what I want to do"

Where's the assumption that OP feels pressured or desperate except in those people's heads?

Huh? You make it sound like these are two mutually exclusive things. OP wants to lose weight because they personally want to use their body to cosplay, but not as a fat version of a character.

DA - exactly. People can have all sorts of reasons for wanting to lose weight and draw on all sorts of motivations and inspirations to do so. Their personal reasoning is not invalid just because it's not "necessary" to be skinny to cosplay.
