This idiotic woman has much bigger (no pun intended) problems than her weight. The email was a private communication, which she chose to go public with, in her liberal, self-centered attempt to justify her own choices. That was NOT “cyber-bullying” and her use of that over and erroneously used buzz-phrase makes me wild. People are entitled to their opinions, and just because you don’t like them, or they “hurt your feelings” does NOT make them bullies. Rather than parents teaching their children “to be kind” they should teach them this: “A fool, convinced against his will, is of the same opinion still.” In order words, don’t cast pearls before swine.

She may be fat BUT AT LEAST SHE'S HOLDING DOWN A JOB! And, she's pretty, too.

Many of the critics of women's looks are ugly, fatazz men that smell like dead horses; like many of the crazy trolls that hang out on the WOAI website. Look in the mirror and realize that you would not want to be honestly critiqued because afterwards you'd want to go jump off a cliff. Cheers Homer, have another Keystone!

Yeah, I was heavy too at one time and heard all the remarks, especially from my Dr.. That was before I found out I was on a medication that caused weight gain, truely. When I got off of it I lost the 60lbs I had put on in two months. Don't take Celexa unless you need to gain weight.

people who drink too much get all kinda grief.as well as people who smoke too much or do too many drugs.but overeaters seem to get a pass.bad habits are bad habits and if you point them out you are not a "hater"

I love that she stood up for herself. Its sad that people rather spend their energy hating instead of loving. We're living in a sad world.
