Yeah, I have a plus sized friend and when people say bad stuff about him he just picks them up and throws them off the side of the earth. And then eats some McDonalds.

I hear what y'all saying and I agree.
I know that she's in risk of health problem, but I believe she needs to hear it from her friends; in a calm way, rather than pushing her into something she's not ready to.

Reading that and the visual I got with it made me chuckle.

So did your friend throw the salesperson off of the side of the earth?

My health care premiums go up because more obese people mean more insurance claims because they're seeing doctors and in the hospital more often.
My plane tickets have gone up in price because the average weight of a plane has gone up 10% in the last 15 years because of more people being obese and a heavier plane means more gas consumption and higher ticket prices.
My taxes goes up because I have to support people being obese on government health programs.

... just to list a couple

Im sure you affect just as many people in a similar sense if you're going that far into detail. An anorexic person affects you just as much in that sense.

No, my healthy living effects no one by nearly the same amount. There have been studies, news articles, announcements from companies, etc... talking about how the obesity epidemic is increasing prices and premiums on things across the board and indirectly costing the US millions every year.

And yes, I agree that Anorexia affects me in some way too and I am against it too, but it doesn't have nearly the impact that obesity is having.

Isn't it funny when fat people get on the bus and the whole thing goes down because of the weight?

Sorry but I dont believe fat peoples lifestyles have a largely bigger impact on you than skinny people, clumsy people, ugly people or whatever.
