These people are idiots.  They can LOSE WEIGHT. As a 5'6", 5'7" with boots, man, I wish there was something I could do to make myself 6'2". These fatties spend their lives REEEEEing about something that is well within their power to change.  Pants never fit me. I need to tailor any suits to fit me (because even short men are balloons these days so I need to wear 'slim fit' everything even though I'm normal sized).
