330 pound FrancoFat writes Muh Oppreshuns memoir. Same old reee, different hog “To be fat in France is to be a loser,” Ms. Deydier said.  Ms. Deydier describes her reluctance to take trains or buses because of frequent derision from fellow passengers, the discomfort of being out of breath even after walking a short distance and the sense of having her eating habits watched hawkishly. Over a cup of coffee far from the high-fashion redoubts of the Avenue Montaigne, Ms. Deydier described walking into a bakery in her neighborhood in Paris late one morning and, having missed breakfast, ordering two croissants. Before she even had time to put away her change, she recalled, the woman behind her in line said to the attendant, “One will be enough for me, thank you.” You don’t need scientific studies to show that obesity impairs life. ‘Out of breath after a short walk’ (to the bus), social isolation to eat in private, missing days of work, chronic disease and being a whiny adult, are all undesirable. That’s why fat behavior is shamed.
