I feel like I am treated differently becuz I am no longer a fat girl. Service seems to be better. People make eye contact with me. the men at work seem friendlier and etc...Sometimes I feel uncomfortable with it. Also I feel if you couldn't be nice to me when I was fat then don't start. The way people treat overweight people is ridiculous.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I think we've all been there. I was surprised at how many girls and women on campus meet my eyes and smile now. Yes, our society is prejudiced. It's not personal. It's just that fat people often choose to fade into the background to avoid being noticed. Society's just responding by letting them be invisible.

But that doesn't mean we can't treat them like humans.
