I'm an ex-fat, you'd think I'd be sympathetic to hams trying to lose weight. I'm not sympathetic to them at all. I look back to my former self and I cringe. I was a horrible person.. I was a useless, fat, ugly, annoying piece of shit. Losing weight was just one of my self-improvement techniques.  If you're fat, you don't need "motivation" or "encouragement" to become human again. It needs to come from within you. I'm not against fatties losing weight, but they really shouldn't have been there in the first place.Being a human weight is not something you should get praised for, it's a basic expectation.
