I definitely get treated differently.

This happened the last time I lost over 100# too and probably contributed to me regaining my lost weight. It was very aggravating to be treated better simply because I was a smaller size. People would offer me seats on the bus or train and hold doors open for me, etc. Heck, I NEEDED the seat when I was 300# NOT when I was in the 170s. Now these were people who didn't know jack diddly about me or my attitude, so it definitely wasn't that I was acting nicer or more friendly.

I always knew thin people got treated better but, being confronted with it on a daily basis was hard to take. At least I'm prepared for it this time and I'm 17 yrs. older, so hopefully I can handle it better now.
