Being A Fat Person.

Don't concern yourself with other people's opinion. I think everyone has his/her own insecurities. Your concern should be your health. Obesity predisposes to several diseases: cardiovascular, diabetes, and arthritis.

Oh rockvixen i would never be rude to you..I feel that a person should be happy and enjoy their life,if you are happy so am i...I do not feel like it is anyones business if you are fat, thin,med or whatever..you are a person and there is much more to us than a weight factor..I have some heavy women in my family and i never even think of their weight,i love them just the way they are...There is nothing wrong with being fat as long as you are happy with yourself and you are happy is all that matters..I think if people look at you because of your weight then they are very shallow people, and cannot see you as you are,they are looking for something to poke fun at and are not worth your friendship...People do the same thing to very thin people too, you are not alone dear...I accept people for who they are not what they look like..

I am 43 years old, 5'4: and over 200 pounds. I am a big woman and I like me. I think it is terrible when people stair at heavy people or make rude comments. This just shows that they are insecure with their looks so they have to make fun of you. I would like to know what gives people the right to say someone is over weight. Do you realize in the early 1900's people who were over three hundred were fat now in 2008 if you are over 150 pounds you are fat. There are so many people with eating disorders because they worry so much about their weight that they are not healthy. I also find that heavy people are happy people and out going as well. I find that thin people are more inside themselves. My brother called some woman fat in front of me and I hit him in the head. He did not understand why I did that. I told him what would you do if someone called me fat. He said I would beat them up. I then explained to him she has feelings just like I do. He felt very ashamed of himself for that remark and he apologized to her. I was very proud of him for actually telling her he was sorry. I am very secure in my life so all the names in the world will not hurt me. I am a good mother and a great person to be around and if you can not see that then it is your loose. I am sorry you have had to hear these words that hurt your feelings but remember the people doing this are very little people. I would never condone this kind of behavior. The other thing is people need to mind their own business and not worry about what others are doing.

Not meant as an insult, but why is it that now people are trying to justify being over weight? Don't get me wrong, I was probably over 300 lbs at my heaviest, I stopped getting on the scales at 290! and I'm only 5'3". However, I lost 150 lbs over a 1 year span, and have kept it off, for 4 years. That is the equivalent of loosing a person. Yes you can still wear the lastest fashions, however, enjoying the same things as a thin person? I would have to ask what you are refering too. As for your question, people should mind their own business, for some it is a medical problem, other's by choice as to what their weight is, so people shouldn't be made fun of or insulted because of what their weight is.

There is nothing wrong to be a fat person. I am skinny, and I also have a very good friend although she is fat. I can't see what's wrong with it.

I am lucky enough not to be too overweight but i am what is classed as something to grab hold of or a bit cuddly. So what, I am happy how I am. You sound like you are too. Remember the film Shallow Hal, beauty is within and if you comfortable thats beautiful

I think that if you feel good about yourself and are happy then the rest of the world makes no difference in order to make others around you happy you first must be happy I am not overly fat but not real thin either and I like to dress to my comfort and I get some bad comments but I just let them know I do not care what they think they are not me.I have to do what is right for me and you should do the same I understand the health issues but some people try for along time to lose weight with no results.I say if you are happy with yourself then you go girl,don't let the rest of the world bring you down.Have a great day.

I am a chubby girl too and though I am trying to lose weight, that doesn't mean that everyone who is overweight should. I mean if you are comfortable with who you are, then that's what matters. I am about 30-40 lbs from my ideal weight, but I've never had a problem with my blood pressure. There are some larger people who are actually healthier than skinny people. Oh and I wish people would realize that just because you are overweight, it doesn't necessarily mean that you eat more than skinny people. Some people just have a slower metabolism. I have seen my 100 lb sister in law eat twice as much as me. She just seems to not gain weight like I do.

I'm not fat or something but i'm not thin eather. There's nothing wrong with fat people.When you feel good with your body and you're happy than there's no problem.Only others make it a problem well so what there problem. Hey maybe this is a nice song.It's from Mika and the title is Big girls you're beautiful. So when someone looks at you just sing out loud or think big girls you're beautiful.

To start- God loves us ALL and looks at our heart, NOT our waistlines. The Bible states (in case you never read it) that bodily exercise propheteth NOTHING. My son is obese (he's 11) and I and my daughter are quite the opposite. I'm 48 and am about a size 8 or 10. The big thing here is understanding that when you have an insecure or unhappy person it doesn't matter if you are TOO BIG or TOO SMALL or your hair isn't what they like....they will insult whatever is in front of them at the time. I pray for people like this- what a waste! The only issue with being BIG, as my son is, is IF there is a health issue involved- I mean truly, where it may be affecting your heart, sugar, breathing, etc...then we don't need a neon light to go off to let us know to try to make changes. As far as this SAD superficial world we all live in- I don't get it. If we were all the same it would be SO BORING! How you carry yourself, the clothes that you choose for your weight level, a persons hygiene, - these are what makes for your first impression and your presentation of yourself - oh, AND a POSITIVE ATTITUDE! If you like who you are and are comfortable with this - why waste another single second of your precious time over someone that has nothing better to do but display themself as an adolescent, irritated, miserable human being! And would you really want a person like this to be around you if you were tiny? I would NOT. So be yourself, be happy with yourself and next time you hear or see inappropriateness SMILE, SPIN, SNAP and say OH YEAH THAT'S RIGHT- I'm beautiful! GOD BLESS.

I certainly have a few pounds I could use to shed, but I only want to because of health reasons. I have several friends who are considered obese and it doesn't bother me and they always take me shopping because they know I will be honest and not critical. I think people who are overweight are usually the nicest people and make the best friends because they are not given everything and focus more on their personalities. Moo-ing is totally rude, let's see them drop their pants so we can judge them on something they can't change.

It's how you handle yourself that matters. How you feel about yourself is more important than how others see you. If you are comfy about your weight and you think it doesn't hinder you from doing the activities you want to do, then that's fine.

Im friends with a bigger person and he always gets made fun of so i know how it feels i have been overweight like once

I really dont think that size is an issue when it comes to people. We humans have all different kinds of taste, some like being fat and somelike being skinny. Beauty is not measured on how big or how small u are!!but beauty is measured on whats within meaning whats in your heart. I if u a all right and feel sexy/comfortable in your current size/weight, why the heck!!! keep at it and be happy Do whateva u wanna do dont worry about what others are talking about. the key is enjoying yourself YOU GO GAL!!!!!!!!!!!!

im not so fat,but we still sexy he he he, leave our body as is it because who know because you want to be sexy then you have already anorexia ha ha ha joke. fat is more sexy so donrt be shy im with you my friend.

I aint over weight but I know what you mean its your business to be what you want to be Ive seen skinny girls that looked nastier than heavier girls. Its just more cushion for the pushin LOL JK. I think you can be just as sexy.

some of the most beautiful elegant women are overweight.they are fashionable,have lovely hairdo's,and they carrry themselves with confidence.i am a large lady and i look after myself and proud of it.if people have the time to get to know these aliens as you say ,the would find the most lovliest men and women around.cheers sue

You should not worry what others say, who cares, if your happy with yourself than thats all that matters.Some People are so obcessed with physical appearance that they tend to forget what really matters, and thats whats on the inside. The only thing one should worry about with there weight is the health issues that can come along with it. One should not worry about what ignorant people have to say. People can be cruel they have so many insecurities themselves that they have to put others down just to make themselves feel better so don;t get caught up on what the mean people have to say.

This is America, we choose how we want to live our lives, for the most part. No one should discriminate about people being overweight. Its very wrong to do so. Most my big girls friends are the best friends I have! Live on Rock!

big girls are awesome
