Thanks also for emphasizing that assumptions about fat/thin, healthy/unhealthy do a disservice to ALL people, fat and thin (mostly to fat people... but it does infuriate me that people who think they're really "cracking down" on lifestyle-related health issues actually neglect thin people's health by focusing so exclusively on obesity. Not that it is anyone else's business to police our health, but even if it were, fat scapegoating would still do nothing to improve public health IMO).
