Unfortunately, the general public does discriminate against obese individuals – we don’t enjoy seeing them. How many TV shows or movies have you seen with fat people making love or living a ‘quality life’? There is something about being obese that is equated with gluttony, no self-control, poor hygiene and general unattractiveness. I too had a major weight problem in high school and college. I was miserable, and though I knew I should love and accept myself as I was, I couldn’t. I felt that everything I ate, the way I walked, the clothes I wore, even my interaction with the opposite sex, was being scrutinized. People, for the most part, are very harsh critics. You either decide that you don’t care, or you make changes to be satisfied with who you are.
