Lipedema (the unnatural build up of fat in the lower half of the body) is typically not associated with diabetes. Edema (the build up of fluid in the feet and ankles) can be sometimes linked to diabetes, but can also be linked to heart/circulation issues as well.
Cushing's Disease could also be an issue for this person. It ties right in with metabolic imbalances related to dealing with glucose, insulin, etc.
Overly skinny or overly swollen legs both look unusual. They normally indicate some sort of health issues at play. Obviously, the person in this video is dealing with whole host of challenges.
I have many family members dealing with the metabolic issues shown here. They are working hard to overcome them. It's so disheartening to know they are judged harshly when they are fighting such a tough battle. And since it runs in my family, I have to be extra vigilant for my own health as well.
You're right that her symptoms are very noticeable.
In fairness, I likely wouldn't be judging this person if they weren't..well.. doing what they're doing in the video. The main people I end up judging based on looks are the 400+ pound land whales who come out of a gas station with like 3 24 packs of Bud Light, which actually takes a surprising amount of effort to eat enough food to reach.
I judge at times, too. Definitely not perfect, myself.
Finding compassion can be tough, especially when whatever is happening might be self-inflicted. Sometimes, there's an issue and it's made worse by personal choices. Compassion can be even harder then. I still try though.
Thanks for your thoughts.
