A. I'm not putting down fat people, especially since I count myself among them. B. People need to face reality. How many people subject themselves to bariatric surgery, risking their lives, and discover they actually lose weight when they eat small portions? They could have bypassed the surgery and just eaten small portions. C. The 900 lb. guy got your goat. I feel sorry for him, too, but mostly because no one loves him enough to bring him a bowl of cereal rather than a box. The bottom line is, you take responsibility for your own life. If you're comfortable heavy, that's fine. If you're not, change things. The topic of the original post had to do with the food police and that was what my original response was in reference to. The 900 lb. guy remark was snarky and I do apologize to the 8 people on the planet who suffer from a rare genetic disorder that causes them to gain weight uncontrollably. And one last thing. Wasn't your first response to me a nasty, personal attack on a stranger you had no way of knowing had a weight problem? You're later response is a tad "holier than thou," wouldn't you say?
