Are they saying fat people are whales?

So, I’m a little chubby. I won’t say obese though. After having my son, I went down to 89lbs when I was normally around 125lbs. I was way too skinny and had other problems.

Turns out I had a hyperthyroid (aka: Graves Disease). I had radio-active iodine twice to kill the thyroid. Now I have Hypothyroidism. So I went from skinny to fat just like that. Of course, now I have to take medicine to replace my dead thyroid for the rest of my life. By the way Hypothyroidism can cause obesity, joint pain, infertility and heart disease. I worked with a woman who was losing her hair because of the disease.

Sure, I could probably lose some weight if I exercised and watched my calorie intake. But I am too worn out after working all day then taking care of things at home.

When I lost all my weight I had to put up with lots of comments like, “You’re too skinny. Or “You’re so skinny you could hide behind that light pole.” Now, being chubby I just get snickers or “When are you due?” Of course, as I’ve gotten older no one asks me that last question anymore! So fat or skinny you still get comments or snickers.

And fat people are discriminated against. Just read this article:
