it's your basic "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em mentality"
if this (bs) is true, we've given up in a sense.
i'm 5'7" 130 lbs, size 4-6 and quite possibly OUT of style once again.
I'M OUT and I'M GLAD.

On the other extreme...
Firemen forklift 50-stone woman (50 stone = 700lbs)
Firefighters in Hungary had to remove a window and take down part of a wall to take a 50-stone woman to hospital.
They spent five hours dismantling the home in Budapest before they could create a hole large enough for her, reports news agency MTI.
They then strapped a hospital bed to a forklift and raised it to the window.
A total of 13 firemen were needed to roll the woman, who has not been named, onto the bed.
She was successfully transferred to a hospital to undergo a weight-loss programme. (She must have felt the need to do something when she went over 500 lbs)

So we don't care how we look, fine. Do people not see that this just can't be healthy. Bugs me.
