It's the old stereotype, people who are overweight are weak, lazy and jolly. I'll tell ya I've never been friggin jolly in my life! When I was bigger I did try to live up to the jolly part but it's not in my personality. So much less pressure now, I can be my natural stoic self with a few blips of unintentional humor interspersed. I see MO people and I just want to tell them there is help, I don't think they are weak even if they are ordering two whoppers with fries and a coke.I worked harder at everything I did when I was MO, it hurt to move and was exhausting. It's no different than the high IQ student making straight A's doesn't work as hard as the mid to low IQ student that struggles as hard as they can to pull a C average. Who works harder? This is a disease, not a personality disorder. The general public don't understand or believe it. Obesity is the last remaining prejudice to not be identified as an issue by the general public.
