Ah, but you see, if you were their friend, it SHOULD mean a fig to you.

I never used to care, but now, because of the unhealthy aspect of added weight, and the big scare, I feel concern for my overweight friends. I'm not going to preach at them (save for the healthy eating thread ) but I can't say that I don't care that they're overweight, because I DO - simply because I don't want their lives to be any shorter than necessary.

It's not my place to tell them to lose the weight, but I can care about them, and be as supportive as I can of anyone who is changing their lifestyle in a healthier direction.

Hugs to all,
Rob.
