IHOPs are notorious for their narrow booths.
Most IHOPS are in a small dining area to begin with. They tend to jam a lot of tables a booths into this small space.
Maybe they think we the customer sees this as ‘cozy’.
I see it as too close to other diners.
Close enough to hear them smacking their pork saugages.

Put down the groceries, girl. The time to get a handle on your weight is when you’re only a few pounds overweight, not when you 300 or 400 pounds.

Lose some weight Fatso! Fat slobs like you cause problems for people other than you. I do not believe in “fat acceptance.” I believe that sloth and gluttony are two of the seven deadly sins. Obese people should be charged by the pound when being seated in theatres, restaurants, and airplanes.
To: RightGeek
For people who identify as large, plus-size or fat The term we're looking for, kids, is "morbidly obese".

Why couldn't the booth identify as a table?

Shes a woman with a problem Yes. Thank you. And she very definitiely has a problem. It won't be solved by making bigger chairs, or telling her she's OK the way she is. This isn't "tubby" ... this is extremely unhealthy.

Are there any TGIF’s anywhere anymore?
Only went to one once. Years ago. The food was adequate. As any chain restaurant food is.
But the tables! They were inches apart.
I hate being able to (forced to) listen to conversations from other tables. Especially tables 2 and 3 tables from mine.
I never went back.

Knew there would be rude and hateful nasty remarks from nearly all of FR.

Whatever the case, someone as heavy as she is, is at much higher risk of numerous health problems.
There are various ways of losing weight. Not all work for everyone, but she really should be encouraged to look into it, for her own personal health.
To: forgotten man
She can lose weight. You, will never lose your ugliness.
