Same here, Teri. I have struggled with my weight and have been called nasty names over the years because of it: thunder thighs, blubber butt, you name it. People can be so cruel. I get eally irritated with people who judge others simply because they don't fall into the *beautiful people* category. And people can be so judgmental about it. There was an Oprah show the other day about obese women and they interviewed people on the street about what they think when they see an obese person. I couldn't believe the things they said, from making comments about what they should and shouldn't eat to attacking their characters simply because of their weight. Unless they know why the person is obese (and it shouldn't matter anyway), then they shouldn't say anything.
