Professional "athletes" are way overweight, have you ever looked at the NFL linemen?
Many skinny people smoke, drink & do drugs
We accept these people far better than an overweight person. I struggle terrrible with my weight, I don't overeat. I am post meno & hypo thyroid and living on 800- 1200 calories a day forever is not that much fun. With that said, many people just don't care about their weight, at least I care and I don't take up 2 seats on an airplane ( my biggest pet peeve), I have had to set by people who have taken up half of my seat, NOT FUN, they should have to buy 2 seats.

We need to have Laws that don't allow manufacturers to "add" whatever the he!! they want to our food, including hormones and HFCS, sugar, salt, etc. Whay would I want sugar in my canned tomatoes? there is a multitude of factors that contribute to our overweight society, including lack of activity
