There are a lot of shallow people in this world who judge others on looks, including the medical profession, with their nutty designation that body size is a "disease." The AMA is full of shit.

These people don't give a shit about others' body size which invariably is sexist because almost all of it is directed at women. They think they feel superior, or, if they were formerly "heavy," they act like a bunch of dry drunks trying to shove their evangelism down others' throats.

They don't even realize their attitude is based on bigotry.
