I'll agree that you don't have to be thin to be healthy, and there are certainly some 'pudgy' people that I know that are quite healthy, they just happen to be over the average weight for their height. Indeed, being overly thin is probably just as dangerous to one's health as being morbidly obese.
That said, there really is an obesity epidemic, and for people described as "humongous", I can't imagine there's anything healthy about that.
In all seriousness, I agree. ...felt terrible when I was overweight! It's hard on the knees, hard on blood cells, organs,...
It's easy to love my friends and family who are fat, but I do wish they would get into the habit of moving around more to play (tai chi, walks, etc.), get plenty of sleep to facilitate that, eat more varied things,...
But at the same time, I believe that we are a nation of hypersensitive people, and that prevents the flow of good and caring information. We all have our weaknesses, and it's time for a come-back in humor and discussion about those.
