[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m ‘fat’ at a size 14 on my 5’3” frame and it never occurred to me to tell my DC that living as a fat woman is hard. In fact it isn’t. I’m active in my community and highly regarded, I have a good career and I do exercise and stay active. I can count on one hand the times that people have been rude to me about my weight, and that’s really more about them than it is about me. [/quote] Yes, I'm having a hard time figuring out just what is being discussed here. My mom has been "fat" for most of her adult life (she's 5'1" and wears size 14-16), and things seem great for her. I've never once been embarrassed by her weight (or anything about her) and nothing about her weight seems particularly difficult. I know she wishes she were thinner, but she doesn't seem to harp on it or let her weight stop her from doing whatever she wants. But I'm sure it could be different for someone who is morbidly obese. Is that what's being discussed?[/quote]
