And it ain't easy. I was lucky. I had a very, very supportive family. I could go on and on about this all day..lol..I have so much to say, but I'll spare you all
But you said something that most fat people dont:

"but those who have been on the fat side of the fence, knows what it's like to go through losing all that weight. And it ain't easy."

you did something about it- the ones that dont are cutting their life short along with a laundry list of other complications their body will give them. Is it fair to leave a family short a loved one because they failed to do one thing- be healthy. You dont have to look like a BB or a supermodel, but one should never look like Jaba the hut either.
