check out my new posted topic AHHHHRRRGGGGGG! I have always had a bit of a problem with the fat is beautiful thing. . .even when I was bigger. . .I mean how much is too much. . .there was a guy 800+ pounds on TV today. . .and a boy of 7 who weighs more than me. But then there is the other side saying. . .well that Atkins is bad for you. . .so people think they are healthier with what they are doing. Meanwhile they are eatting crap and lots of it. On the one hand I think they pack people too tightly into airplanes for even regularly sized people. So to make people have to buy two seats or ask for a seat belt extension (I once held my seat belt closed so the stewardess did not see it would not buckle. . .now that can't be safe either) is wrong. But by not addressing the real issue. . .the size of America will continue to be a weighty issue. redawn
