If it's not caused by a medical condition, then what else can cause it? The fat fairy?

Good, you acknowledge that it can be something other than the 6 Big Macs for lunch....

Please don't say "fat fairy" again....reminds me too much of something Roger Ebert said during his beef (no pun intended) with Vince Gallo.

And yet some on here don't think it's so obvious, so it merits saying and even repeating.

Of course I do. The ADA protects those people though. This thread really couldn't apply to them at all.

Will abstain from fait fairy comments.

Haha, the fat fairy. That's fantastic. I'll have to use that sometime if I get a chance.

I also thought that obesity caused by disability was protected by the Act. Anyone know for sure?
