[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]You don't think she knows? [/b] You think nobody's ever made fun of her for having a fat mom, or the clothes you wear or how they fit you? You think she's never seen you hesitate before you sit down in a delicate-looking chair? You think she's never noticed you heave your body up from a sitting position?

This is all obvious. She doesn't need to be told.[/quote]

NP here and NO most people have no idea how hard it is to be a fat woman. And I am talking about actually morbidly obese.  Having been there yes, I have told my own DD that she should keep a healthy weight because being fat is just so physically hard and miserable.

Things you once did easily, you get winded and it just hurts and you just don't want to do it. I remember there was a point were just standing to do the dishes for 10 minutes hurt my knees and legs. There was a point where the steering wheel kind of dug into my stomach. I hated shopping with friends because I got tired so quickly. Going to eat, if there was a booth, nightmare because sometimes I couldn't get in the booth or my stomach spilled over on the table if the table couldn't be moved. I couldn't even buy regular bracelets and earrings in the store. The bracelets were too tight and my earlobs got fat - no I am not kidding - regular post earrings that I picked up at regular stores sometimes didn't fit, the posts were too short.  :(  It was all awful and terrible.[/quote]
