This shit makes me so angry -_- Especially being a fat social worker myself! Though I am not 300 or more lbs, I am also only 5ft. I remember once hearing folks on the internet describe a hypothetical fat person when making the distinction between ok fat and gross fat, using the example of a woman who was 5ft and 200lbs as gross fat. A woman that fat, it was proposed, would no longer even have definable arms and legs, she would be basically just a ball of fat at that immense a weight. I've now passed 200. And shockingly I do still have definable arms and legs.
