[quote=Anonymous]Seems to me that overall, people are fatter than they used to be. There are even overweight mannikins now -- saw one in Target. Normal weight people are so rare that chubby people are telling them that they are too thin and need to gain weight. (Guess how I know!) I've heard people say that their doctor told them it was good to carry extra weight in case they got ill, so it would take longer for their illness to make them underweight. Hopefully that's not common, because so many illnesses are caused or exacerbated by overweight or sedentary living. Meanwhile, I'll try to ignore the fear mongers and won't tell people that they re too fat and need to lose a few pounds. That's a non-no, but apparently, the opposite is completely acceptable these days. [/quote]
