Thank you. I actually do have a health reason and when I was on the meds to "fix" it, weight melted off me. Unfortunately, it turns out I can't tolerate the only meds used to treat my problem. Lucky me, eh? The only other "cure" is a drastic surgery I just don't want to have yet.

I understand the whole politically correct thing. In fact, I think PC is a huge waste of time and I just want to scream at the craziness of most of it. I don't consider this a PC issue. PC is calling fat people "pleasantly plump" or "stocky" or "fuller figured"... I prefer "under tall" and "metabolically challenged" . Its not a PC issue when you get people harassing you about your figure. Its about respect for human dignity. It truly is sad that we have to create laws like this. You're right, we shouldn't NEED anything like this. People should treat others the right way without the government telling them they ought to. Unfortunately some people need guidelines to follow.

Maybe if we all went back to basics.... I seem to remember a good book that mentioned something about doing unto others as you would have done onto you. More people need to take that concept to heart and live with it every day.
