Reviewing the thread I wonder if people are getting my point.

Again there seems to be a social issue that prevents us talking about weight in a meaningful way.

33girl yes there healthy people that are way overweight. Just as overly thin people are likewise healthy. Healthy means not visibly ill.

Excess thinness affects cholestrol levels, bone density and other things.

But we can't seem to discuss the long term health risks that are associated with being overweight. It tops the list of all most every major category of things-that-will-kill-us-faster.

So again, why is it so hard to have a dialogue about the issue? Isn't that failing our friends?
