    LOL,Ok, will edit. But see my point, its perfectly acceptable to tell a smoker how disgusting and smelly they are, but the word fatty is wrong?

    2 different addictions ( and I have had both-only got the fat one to give up LOL) But at the end of the day, same cure. Abstinence....

    I think the reason being is that being overweight doesn't always mean unhealthy life style or overeating.

    Thank you for editing it It's actually good to talk about these things though.
