Time to weigh in on obesity

I think that what the lady was saying had some truth behind it however I did disagree with some of what she said. For example I agreed that fat people definitely should not be shunned especially if its because of a disorder or something else they can’t control. It would be awfully cruel of society to judge someone for being fat or even obese having said that, I do not think that saying it’s okay to be fat is necessarily the right message. There is nothing wrong with being fat and if you are comfortable with it then power to you but I do also think that society’s view of fat people isn’t going to change, certainly not any time soon. Not to mention there are definite health hazards to being fat. For these reasons I don’t think it makes sense to tell people it’s okay to be fat for their benefit and their loved one’s sake.
