"I'm fat "cause I eat and I eat cause I"m fat - it's an endless cycle"  - to paraphrase Fat Bastard - It seems funny to most people but it many ways it's true - There's a real double standard with being big - In University I played on the Offensive Line and being large was celebrated - the bigger the better to most coaches - Hell look at the average NFL or CFL Lineman - they weigh well over 300lbs - but they are rightfully considered top level athletes - who can run 100 meter sprints in fractions of seconds slower than olympic atletes.  The point is no matter what you do and what you look like there will be some people who glorify it and some that will put you down.  It is just best to happy with yourself and as long as your close friends and family accept you for what you are then you have nothing to worry about.
