I see to no reason to be accepting of someone who does not want to work hard enough to become healthy. Unless you have a severe medical condition that resulted in you being obese, there is no excuse.

Now if I saw you in the gym working your ass off (pun not intended), or planning your meals in order to reach your goals, then I see no reason for someone to disrespect you. If you just sit and moan about how your body won't cooperate, don't expect people to be accepting.

I'm not asking (and I'm sure no one else is) that you have a perfect body, or that you be quick in getting it. That is of course unrealistic. But you cannot expect someone to accept the choices that made you obese, or the choices that keep you there.
