I don't think she was that heavy, but the weight was really causing her problems walking, getting up the stairs from the parking lot and then 1 flight up to her office. That sort of thing.
Repulsively ugly or morbidly obese people aren't typically seen occupying the corner office of large companies.
True, but she did literally occupy a corner office. She had been thin, but not emaciated a few years before I first met her, but by the time she made VP she was well on her way up. In fact she beat out a "Joe Gland" kind of guy for that VP slot. He quit the organization shortly after. Never liked him anyway, but I never had much interaction with her. The next lower manager in my chain is also a woman, and a bit on the chunky side herself, but not as much so as yours truly. The guy under her is one of those disgusting thin (actually skinny)people who eat like horses, and are not known to do any extra exercise either.
If she started her time at your workplace really skinny and then got to the point that she needed intervention surgery due to morbid obesity, I'd wager her problem was caused by something other than too many calories at lunchtime. That would be a terrible situation with which to contend. Hope she recovers well enough.
