Yeah, I completely feel for people who are considered "overweight" and I get that life is rougher for them. I'm not trying to compare my situation to theirs. But thin people still have our own weight and health issues and we need to be able to talk about them without it turning into some kind of oppression olympics over whose weight issues take precedence.
In fact, as you well know, sometimes thin people have a very small margin of error, so when we get upset or excited over only a few pounds, people think we're vain. When the reality is that it only takes a few pounds for whatever our problem is to be noticeable.
