Health should include respecting a variety of bodies.

I have met people who were both fatter and fitter than me before. They were usually bigger boned and had more weight on their body but it wasn't necessarily affecting their organs that much. 

I do think I have some problems and I need to heal my organs, however. I have problems because I have PCOS. But not every bigger body has the same health issues.

Also, you shouldn't pressure all people to lose weight very fast. That's a way for women to get painful gallbladder problems; they get them more than men do.

Anyways, it's time to be more calm about this pretty soon.
