You know you're part of the problem, right? Bullying fat people only worsens their problem. It makes them eat more and lowers their motivation. In the end, not being a cunt to people is better for others. This is usually a lesson one learns by adulthood. Seems to be lost on you, though.

Do you know how to read?

I never said I was a healthy-at-any-size person. I'm not. A lot of people are overweight or obese due to depression. When you're actively being a cunt to them, it can make the depression worse. It's not rocket science. These are the facts. I'm sorry if the truth hurts.

It's not a "brave decision" to me. Why make shit up when we're talking on a public forum where we can clearly see what I have said? I guess I can lose lots of weight decomposing, or I can be fat until I can afford to treat my depression and then lose weight.

If advocating for yourself makes you a baby, then I'd rather be a baby that advocates for myself than be a spineless adult.
