Thank you June...and that pisses me off too.
Deciding to be healthy and lose weight isn't an effort to put anyone else down...it's an effort to have a longer, healthier (and hopefully happier as a result) life.
I hate sizist, "fat is ugly" messaging as much as anyone. I am, and always will be, on the larger size. It's just how I'm built. As a diabetic, with a history of heart disease....losing weight and getting healthy is to save my own life, to live to see my son grow up, to maybe (if I'm lucky enough) be able to snuggle with my grandbabies.
If someone has an issue with that...screw 'em.
