Al Sharpton is now a fat shamer

He lost more than half his body weight — and now the Rev. Al Sharpton is a fat shamer!

The civil-rights leader and host of MSNBC’s “Politics Nation” regularly pokes fun at his fat followers and friends, The Smoking Gun reports after examining comments he’s made before his organization, the National Action Network.

“Every fine girl is two big Whoppers away from being obese,” he said after meeting an old high-school crush who had ballooned to almost 300 pounds.

At a May rally against Boko Haram outside the United Nations, Sharpton told his fellow protesters, “A lot of y’all ain’t doing nothing but going to lunch. And most of y’all don’t need no lunch. Y’all need to walk over to the UN and lose some weight anyhow.”

Sharpton, who once tipped the scales at 305 pounds, lost 30 pounds during a prison hunger strike in 2001, but began his real body transformation in 2009, ditching his infamous track suit for a more tailored look. He now weighs 138 — a drop of 167 pounds from his heaviest.

He owes the dramatic weight loss to a super strict diet that relies mostly on fruits and veggies.

“I gave up meat, I started watching my diet, I work out,” Sharpton said on the “Today” show in October 2013. He eats fish twice a week and doesn’t eat anything after 6 p.m.

“Since I lost weight, I talk about fat folk real bad,” Sharpton said at a meeting for a fashion show organized by his daughter, Ashley, in April. “I like keeping fat folk around me so I can just talk about them.”

While eating at famed Harlem soul-food restaurant Sylvia’s, Sharpton was disgusted when he watched a woman scarf down half a fried chicken, two sides and a dessert.

When she “had the nerve” to ask for Sweet’N Low, Sharpton couldn’t contain his anger.

“I just got mad,” Sharpton said. “So I couldn’t take it anymore and said, ‘Miss, lemme ask you something. All of that you took, what do you need Sweet’N Low? I mean, you just make yourself feel better? You might as well pour the whole bag of sugar in the cup.”

Sharpton did not respond to a request for comment about the cracks.
