It is so disturbing that a person would take it upon them-self to turn their bigotry into broad generalizations, and present it as fact - promoting hate - but more importantly promoting myths that do nothing but cause harm. How is it productive to misrepresent reality? There are real problems associated with poor eating and lack of exercise. To take bits of truth and spin them for self aggrandizement is immoral. If the director supports her, why take these outrageous comments out of the film?

Shaming people isn't going to help people progress into weight loss. Most if not all obese people especially women know how to lose weight and keep it off it is just that they use food as a coping mechanism. Society keeps shaming them by denying them jobs, bullying them, raising prices on healthy foods and so on. I never once did I see Meme offer at least ONE solution. Really Meme? You don't have at least one solution? I have a truck full. I will fill you in on my results in due time.

It is truly a pity that fat women usurp the term curvy to describe themselves to bail out of having to lose weight.Women who are blessed with an ultra feminine frame look their curviest when at a healthy weight..The appearance of these obese women is an insult to the term "curvy" and honestly, if that's what curvy is, I want to be anything but curvy. Real curvy women: Sophia Loren, Scarlett Johaneson, Beyonce, Kim Kardashian, Marilyn Monroe, 2/3 of American women don't resemble them in any way.

@beki4peace sweetie,thats a load of BS.I am 5'8'.In 6 years I put on 30 pounds from consuming excess calories and not working it off and lost my figure.I lost 12 and am working on more.Regardless of height,fitness is a commitment.What she is talking about is the fact that some women take the liberty of getting fat and out of shape,WHEN IT CAN CLEARLY BE AVOIDED,and taking for granted that the poor man married them and assuming he should be hot for her no matter how gross she looks.

I agree with her concerns regarding health and I applaud her for having a healthy lifestyle. I just wish she would get off her judgemental soap box and actually present solutions to the problems rather than shame people. I bet she has a faster metabolism than someone who is 5' 0". Tall people always have a faster metabolism and can carry more weight than a short person. Does she have food allergies? History of illness? Ever taken antibiotics? Has she ever been obese?
