Someone I went to school with is like that, they post the Pro body positivity and healthy at any size bullshit all the time. I lost 36kg counting calories and ran into them out one night just after I'd reached the lightest I've ever been. I was pretty happy about it but didn't want to bring it up because there was already a weird tension since I was always the fat kid and now the roles had kind of reversed, I didn't even mention my weight but sure enough there was a post after the weekend about not "bragging about your weightloss" because it affects other people's self worth.
She was a nice person but definitely had some serious self image issues that she tried to put on other people.
I had odd reactions from the hippie type folks I was friends with in college when I started lifting. "Careful you don't hurt yourself." "I prefer to exercise more naturally" Even had an ex girlfriend (who's gained a lot of weight since we dated) flip out on me a few months ago on Facebook when we were chatting and I mentioned some stuff about fitness
