I had a big complicated WLS to ensure I would lose weight and never gain it back. For the last 12 years I have been normal weight, have a great job and people who care about me. I can see how others treat the obese and it make me shutter how cruel people are. In today's society, it is not acceptable to be a raciest or make fun of handicapped, mentally challenged, LGBT, or people who are different, but it is open season to discriminate on fat people.

Fat people are still people.
I could not agree more. Shall we discriminate against others for their lifestyle choices? Far be it from us beloved. Peace is achieved in no other way than Live and Let Live.
Thanks for this!
