   In case you missed the sentence before I said I don't ridicule overweight people. Many people do even if they dont say it, it is in the way they are looked at or treated. People can be very mean. I think it is ironic that someone clearly overweigh...

   One person a few pages ago said I should just quit. If it was really that easy dont you think I would? No I really like being ridiculed by people that have no idea what it is like to try to quit something you are addicted to. I would love to quit....
