We should all be happy with oursevles. That's a major part to being happy in life. Who cares if you're 300 pounds? You're probably beautiful on the inside, and if people can't see that then they're not worth talking to anyway. Sure maybe loosing some weight is healthy for us and a boost to our self esteem, but we should still respect ourselves. Otherwise, why are we tryin to loose the weight????

Yeah. My girlfriend says I'm sweet too. I didnt mean to offend anyone by the way. You just gotta love yourself for you who are, not what you are.

EXACTLY!! if your not happy now, then so what if you lose 50lbs? You wont ever be happy cuz youre not confinent! You ned to love yourself, every nook and cranny, every bone and(sorry!) roll! If not, then when your skinny, youll always find something wrong with yourself! BE happy and healthy!

All Eddie is trying saying is that we shouldn't lose weight to make other people like us. We should loose it to be healthy. I dont think he meant to say that it doesnt matter if we are 300 pounds, but what he meant was that even if we lost the weight, it might now change our self esteem. Maybe that makes this post sound better for poor Eddie? And really guys... dont trample people who might have said something wrong but meant well.

trying not to say bad words right now... HELLO!!!!! if your 300 pounds there's a chance you might not make it to the age 30. let's see even though we're beautiful on the inside, people think we're ugly on the outside and that's what we think... we go on diets to get healthier... have you heard of diebetes???heart disease...CANCER???? we all have a reason to be here. to look better...feel better, and all that kind of stuff...i'm not happy the way i am but some people think they're just fine the way they are.

We don't live in a perfect world. People will make judgements. Being overweight is a disadvantage in the world...hello obesity discrimination. Plus, you shorten your life span! Its so unhealthy.
