Just saw the following article and wondered how the current War on obesity is going to offset this one and make the children understand that these is a difference between "obese" and being in the Olympics . A little confusing to say the least.

When she squats, which she can do with 525 pounds on her shoulders, she looks almost wholly like an egg. “I get a lot of Creepy McCreepersons interested in me because I’m so big it’s not normal, it’s like a fetish,” she [said] one day in the gym. “And I don’t like to sit outside. Not because I don’t like to be outside, but usually there are plastic chairs. Once you break a couple plastic chairs, you’re afraid of them all.”

Olympian or not, if you sit in a plastic chair and it breaks, your fat obese.

I think it is awesome. She has a good body image because she can at least joke about it and she doesn't have skinnybitchitis where she feels like she has to puke herself to death to stay skinny.

If only the Government would get out of the game ~ that is the major problem and our elected officials are the biggest enablers ....

I agree. I don't care if someone else is fat as long as they are happy.

All Paterno Apologists who kept chirping over the years that he was the greatest of all time and ran the cleanest program of all the power confrences can suck it.

It's called bulimia and it's a psychological disorder.

And with the current focus on food and obesity coming out of Washington D.C. we can only expect much more of it coming down the pike. Especially with the expansion of all the free food programs to fill your plate with over and over again. Traveling around this City lately I have noticed the same people following the 'feeding troughs' from Park to Park. Kind of like Lemmings , only they aren't jumping off the bridge as they cross it (usually in an S.U.V.) which they always park a half a block away. Damn these food deserts , they must be stopped...
