Now let’s look at the statistics. How often do you and your horde complain about the bad health of the anorexic... or just leer?

We need more body shaming.

Fat people are physically repulsive and the sight of them ruins the appetite.

You know you’re fat when Japanese whalers with harpoons are following you.

Size 30!?! Yowza, she is HUMUNGOUS!!!!

The serious issue is that this woman is morbidly obese and she is going to DIE YOUNG if she doesn’t stop eating like a glutton.

This is not a “fat shaming” issue, it’s literally a matter of life and death.

==

A person with anorexia is an anorectic.

Some people get tubby far more easily than other people do,

That's definitely true. Similarly, I have have never had to do anything to stay at a normal weight. Does that in itself mean that a person who is very large has less willpower than me. No.

Plus most of the advice that is given about how to lose weight and keep it off is wrong.

I haven’t seen a TGIF in a long time. Not here in Marin, not in the parts of San Francisco I usually drive through.

Some restaurant managers get focused on maximizing their potential profits. This leads to presumptions of exactly how many tables can I physically place within X number of cubic feet? They start thinking the way Plane Companies do.
Sardine methods become the rule.

Like it’s the restaurant’s fault.

"Less doesn’t mean never, but some people have to be advice nannies."

Let me rephrase it then: If you can't fit at the table, don't eat out!

Sad to see the replies here. I have battled weight my entire adult life and it was never about being a glutton. Finally I realized it was what I was eating, not how much. I am now down to acceptable weight range but it’s a daily battle to maintain it. I have to constantly monitor what I eat and I can never or only rarely have things I used to love such as pasta, pizza, ice cream, pies, and pancakes. It’s a battle every day. I know firsthand what others have to go through with regard to being fat. It’s not as simple as calories in, calories out.

Evidently it’s not quite daunting enough.

“For people who identify as large, plus-size or fat...”

The author missed a couple of classifications: obese, grossly obese.

The booth doesn't care what you identify as.

It is wrong to remark about someones weight. Remember walk a mile in their shoes. There but for the grace of God go I.

Calories consumed, calories expended. That is all.

Should anyone find an exception to the first law of thermodynamics... well then, that’s different.
