[quote=Anonymous]I don't know what it is, but a lot of my coworkers seem nasty towards me or constantly give me churlish attitudes over simple things.  I am not a talkative person and am quite introverted. I mind my own business 99.9% of the time and simply go about doing my work.  The only thing I can think of is that they're angry at the fact that I'm very fit.  You can absolutely tell. When I wear a short sleeved shirt you can see all of my vascularity, and for lack for better terms - my shredded arms. I am very trim and have nice shapely legs and a sculpted derriere because I do tons of leg workouts. My body fat % is below 13%.

Is it just a thing this day in age to discriminate against fit people given that the majority of adults and coworkers are now overweight or obese?  Half of it too could be the negative mindset and low self-esteem many people have that has reuslted in their obesity in the first place, which they try to dump onto other people around them.

Fit shaming at work  feels like it is getting more and more out of hand as the population gets more overweight. [/quote]
