I went to Six Flags New England and at the water park I saw a very large mother and her twice as large daughter (both adults) the daughter had that look that you know she has trouble breathing, sleeping just existing. . .I am filled with guilt. . .I want to be able to tell people I see in obvious pain. . .it's not you it's the carbs. . .but how? I would love to craft a note that I could give people. . .but man I would have been insulted. . .but is it right to not share life saving information. . .and for people the size I am feeling obliged to help size is a life and death issue.

"Hi, First I would like to appoligise. If anyone had given me what I have handed you I would have been insulted and crushed. Please know I have no desire to sell you anything or am in no way trying to insult or hurt you. I too have been a big person (274) and I have lost alot of weigh low carbing (so far _) (I follow the Atkins plan but there are alot of low carb way of life's out there) The advantages of the low carb lifestyle are beyond compare. It will give you your life back. It causes you to not be hungry all the time. If you get nothing from this note please take this, it is not you. . .it's the carbohydrates. There is a wonderful resource on the net it is a forum for low carbing (it is free, I am not the founder and in no way associated with it other than a poster on the forum as 'redawn')

What do you all think? My dh's opinion is the will reach out when they need it. He has a point. But it doesn't help the guilt feeling that you see someone drowning and you have a life line and don't throw it to them?
