[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fwiw both my dad and mil who are thin and fit have had knee/hip replacements so that part is not necessarily linked. But I have infinite compassion for my mom who was an obese toddler and always stayed obese. Society HATES heavy women. I am never going to feel that way about my mom. She is now on diabetes meds and lost some weight, but is still not active at all and I doubt she ever will be. Does it make me sad and has it been a big motivation in my life to stay fit and eat well? Yes, definitely. It's very hard to become active at that advanced age and starting much younger is important.[/quote] Agree. What frustrates me is that much of her situation could have been preventable. Now my Dad has to become her full-time helper to get her from point A to B which is sad.[/quote]
