But women that struggle with their body image can have a problem with the word. For people that have been overweight for most or all of their lives, we have lived a life filled with ridicule. We hear someone laughing near us, we often assume a joke was made at our expense. When talking to us, we figure your thoughts are filled with judgement directed towards us.

So anyway, women that try to avoid the word fat are often trying to reclaim some of that self-esteem by avoiding the negativity associated with the word.

I'm sure there's something important here, but all I keep thinking is, man he is huge.

J/K I have no idea what you look like, only what you report.

Incidentally I see that vicariously through my neighbors.  Mother and son (father died).  He's in his early 30's and he's morbidly obese 450-500.  Mom is maybe 5'0 and probably 300.  I'll go out to dinner or to a movie with him from time to time, and you can see the double takes.  But it's probably hard not to look a second time.  and this is a guy who can't eat chocolate and has an extremely low sodium intake due to Menieres.
