Does everyone think overweight people are gross????

Question

it's so easy for everyone to voice there opions and believe so firmly that things are the way they say they are.i have tried many times to loose weight. everytime i try i loose a few pounds then gain the weight i lost back. its depressing being overweight, because people talk about overweight people as though we are of another species. they make jokes and think we are gross. that alone depresses me. why can't people realize that it is not right to be so rude and mean to other people because of their weight. the rolls can be reversed you know. back to the question do all people think that overweight people are gross?

Answer 1

No!! I think that is something shallow people think, People that can't look beyond a person's exterior. Thin, fat, tall, short... everyone is beautiful in their own way... And what maters most is what is on the interior that counts!! People who have nothing better to do with their time such as talk bad about, make jokes about or say that larger people are gross oviously have issues of their own to deal with, and are insicure about them selves, and have be little some one else by calling them names to make them selves feel better about their own sad pathetic lives!! I'm not large, but believe that everyone deserves a fair lot in life, and should not be made to feel insecure about them selves because they are bigger then some other people... Hey sometimes BIGGER IS BETTER!! Don't let shallow people bring you down, because you are a better person then they are. Take care, and God bless.

Answer 2

Not everyone does. Now you'll get some flack from some some cruel people here. I wonder how they would feel if their mother, sister, best friend had a weight problem? Not nearly so cruel and thoughtless at all.
I hope that before you ever try another diet or weight loss plan again, you will learn to appreciate and love yourself. Make up those pretty eyes, Shampoo and condition your hair til it just shines with health, wear colors that flatter you. Straighten up your shoulders, keep your head high, look people right in the eye and smile. Screw'em! When you get comfortable with that you might find some folks are smiling back. Then give yourself a bit of time and try to find a weight plan that works for you. But first, accept your self, you are worth it . Good luck, annieBee

No, many "overweight" people look fine. The overweight term is given to people according to some chart - and alot of people look better with some meat on their bones!! Now, the reason why most obese people are like that is because they have other health problems. I would never think an overweight person is gross.

Answer 4

I am overweight I do not think I am gross at all. I am clean, I make sure I look my best everyday. It is very hard to lose wieght I just lost 23 lbs but it took me 5 months but thank god it is staying off. If you wear clothes that fit your body and you clean yourself up and make sure your hair looks nice and you have make up on no one should concider an overweight person gross. To be honest when I was thin I thought how in the heck can a person get so big and let themselves go and now I am one of them. I have seen thin pretty girls walk in a room with no confidence and I have seen pretty big girls walk in the room and they end up meeting someone from the opposite sex. It is all in the way you carry yourself.

Answer 5

No, we don't all think overweight people are gross. It is unhealthy, though. Speak to your doctor about your difficulty and ask for a referral to a registered dietician and a physical therapist. The first one can help you learn how better to eat properly and the second can help you devise an exercise and weight loss program suited to your own particular needs. Don't expect miracles; it will take time and effort on your part - but it can be done.

Answer 6

I don't think so. I will say that it does bother me to see anyone too slim or too over weight....Either one is unhealthy. 9 times out of ten there is a medical or genetic reason for either one. As long as you take pride in your inner and outer self and do your best to be in your best health that is all that matters. Don't get depressed, set goals. If you are staying active and trying to eat healthier, maybe it is just written in the books for you to be full figured. Just remember everyone has flaws, if they are making fun of you, then they have issues of their own and need to try to make themselves feel better about whatever it is they don't like about them. Keep your head up, don't let others get to you.

Answer 7

I don't think overwieght people are gross. I think some people are just cruel. God made us in his image and we are all shaped and sized differently and that is SO okay. I have some weight issues going on right now cause of a condition I have, so now I kow how it feels and it's not cause of eating like everyone thinks. Some people are just like that and nothing is wrong with it.

Answer 8

ya know if i see an overweight person walkin or workin out i feel like saying congradulations to them for tryin to save their lives but when u see a big girl say stupid things like " i am big n i dont care who likes it" that means she is just to lazy to care or do anything about being fat. i mean most men get a belly when they get older n been married for awhile and that dont bug me but i think women shouldnt let them selves go.. i use to be bone thin then got on anti depressents n gained 50 lbs i didnt get fat just thick n i stopped taken them n in the past month i lost 2 inches (now in a size 6-8) which isnt big at all but i mean if i can do it anyone can.. i know i aint big and all but i went from jessica simpson thin to lil kim thick n now i wanna get thin again

Answer 9

I am anorexic and I have to say, though I won't let myself even be close to one, I do not find them gross. I find it really disturbing that people judge body image. Everyone should leave everyone alone and there would be less people like me in the world. My life is hell.

Answer 10

hey, i dont think that overweight ppl are gross at kall whatsoever.
i have lots of of that are thin and overweight. my friends that i hang out with right now are feeling the same way as you are, all i tell her is that who cares about how much you weigh its if you are healthy and inside that counts the most, she say that she jealous of me cause im way thinner than she is and i still say who cares for her she had three healthy kids too and i keep on talkin about it with her every once in while when she brings it up.
if ppl ends up being mean and start to say sh*t and the way that you are they ahave problems themselves and ppl around them are the same way to them and that how and why ppl say stuff about overweight, that makes them feel better about themselves.
