The challenges of being over weight
With so many people in the world being overweight it is surprising that there is still a stigma attached to the them, for example.
When a overweight person enters a store that doesn't carry plus-size there are people who look at them as if I have forgotten how they look. They don't stop to consider they might be shopping for someone else.
People can be rude and make statements about HUGE people in front of them, clear their throat and then reiterate HUGE before continuing on in their story.
They tend to be taken less seriously than thinner people as if weight affects their intelligence level.
Mean people, can mock and criticize them for their weight issues.
The entertainment industry telling them anything above a certain size is not worthwhile.
In certain public situations people look horrified if seated next to them as they might be squashed and it makes them uncomfortable.
Some people have a constant battle to lose weight, you only have to look at the contestants in the Biggest Loser shows, but once again is the show to help people lose weight or is it to provide entertainment, somehow I think it is the latter, and it would be better to provide a show which explained the reasoning behind the training and restrictive diets rather than a competition.
