We're a dying breed We went with a group of people out to eat. There were around thirty people. The group is focused on a shared interest that has no connection with weight. Cars.  Out of the thirty people, all but my husband, myself, and another man and woman, were overweight to morbidly obese.  That works out to 87% fats.  The night was for camaraderie and to suggest activities for the year.  Anything that I suggested that had the least bit of "activity" involved was shut down. I'm not even talking about anything that approximated exercise.  One former female had gotten to the point where she could barely walk around and complained about her knees and legs. This caused her to have to mostly give up the activity we were there for. Instead of losing weight, she resigned herself to her new level of inactivity.  This is a car club. We go on car cruises. Instead of being able to drive a sports car, she bought a larger, more accommodating vehicle.  Every day I'm more and more disgusted by what's happening around us. I'm what normal was in 1950 for a woman. All women looked like me. I was nothing out of the ordinary. Now, I can go all day without seeing someone my size.  Similar experiences?
