Even if your weight isn't due to anything traumatic, it's hard to lose it. And heavy people are aware they're heavy, and many of them are trying to lose it, without much success. My mom struggled for years with her weight before successfully shedding her excess pounds. She's hardly stick-thin now, but she's healthy and comfortable.

If appearance is your concern for your chapter, be up front about it. Chapters range all over from wanting girls who are neat and clean to wanting beauty queens. But if health is your concern, it's not just the heavy girls. I know that in college I was at a "healthy" weight but it was all fat, no muscle. Not healthy! Health can be addressed as a chapter or by a small group of women. Start walking together, for example, or make a pact to do exercise tapes together. But nothing is going to happen unless the individuals participating want something to happen, and they are supporting each other rather than criticizing each other.
