THE TYRA BANKS SHOW?

THERE ARE WOMEN ON THE SHOW THAT ARE TAKING A STAND FOR BEING OVERWEIGHT.  DOING MODELLING , WEBSITE AND OTHER THINGS( I CAME IN ON THE MIDDLE.   SOME WOMEN THAT ARE SKINNY A DOWNGRADING THEM.  I THINK FOR 1 THING BEING OVERWEIGHT WASNT HEALTHY FOR ME. BUT ON THE OTHER HAND I THINK IT IS GOOD TO HAVE A GOOD ATTITUDE  AND CONFIDENCE ABOUT YOUR WEIGHT. I DON'T AGREE WITH THEM POSING NUDE, BUT HOW DO YOU FEEL?

My decision to have gastric bypass was based on health issues.  I don''t think that discrimination of any kind if right and that people should be judged by their character.  However, I know that I am more positively treated and perceived after weight loss.  I am also aware that "skinny" is not healthy either.  I do wish we could create an atmosphere where all people and all body types were equally respected and admired.  If we are to be biased toward a group, let it be those that harm others intentionally.  Being too skinny or too overweight are equally unheatlhy places to be and both are symptoms of eating and/or health disorders, which can have very bad affects and effects on ones health and overall functioning.

Well said skydancer... I totally agree...
