I would have to say yes, but as with everything in life there are stipulations to that.  It has a lot to do with your body type and such also.  For instance I am 5'3 and weigh 180.  I am stalky.  I don't look fat but my doctor says I am obese.  The healthy weight according to my docotr for my size is 135.  So the best thing I can tell you is your doctor may not always be correct check around and do some research first, before you decide that you are fat and need to diet.

Mate, I was in India this time last year and the number of overweight people surprised me at first. Then I noticed how much sugar you guys consume. (Chai, chapattis, rotis, rice, etc.) The only people over there not putting on weight are the farmers and those in physical work. \nUnfortunately the west has brought its culture (Maccas and cola)and the desk jobs have greatly increased in India.\nForget Liposuction and the like, just get moving and cut back on those carbohydrates.

not everyone is, you probably just feel that way. I was skinny all my life till about 2 years ago, and it doesn't bother me. If it bothers other people i don't care, they are not involved in my life and know nothing about me. You shouldn't worry about what other people say.

Maybe it is because the people who are calling or thinking you are fat, are so insecure, that they would rather point out your faults, than allow anyone to see their faults. \n\nI am not fat, but I am not scrawny, I just dont believe in being a toothpick, and for this I was commented on my whole life by my sister, and now she is fatter than me. I should have seen that she was the one that had the complex, and that it was never me. I feel for my sister now, as she has no more comments on this topic. Although she still tries to think of herself as thin (she was on the verge of anorexia) but she knows she is not. So now she goes for other areas where she can break me down. \n\nI take it, and forget the comments, I know it is her that has a problem, and not me. Forget what people say about you, rather feel for them. As they are more than likely insecure. If you are happy with your weight and size, then you have no problem to worry about.

I would be unrealistic to say that it does not affect my professional life. To my knowledge it does not, but I am sure that I have been passed over for a promotion because of my weight. Socially it does not. I am actually working on a book about fat-friendly places in my city. I had a roomate in college who was heavier than me and she would always just stay home. I am different. I like to go out and have a good time with friends, of which I have PLENTY! I like to enjoy life! I enjoy dressing up and going to plays, the opera, etc. I even do full-figured modeling on the side. I've never had problems dating. I have a tremendous love for God, and He sees me through. I stay active. I walk, I swim, I dance. Being obese does not always mean being unhealthy. People who are obese have to have confidence in themselves. Ask questions. If you are afraid to go somewhere because you don't think you will fit in a chair, CALL AHEAD! Ask if there are chairs without arms! Do not let life pass you by from fear. Do not stop your life while you are dieting "until you reach your goal"! Live now!

Good point! Excessively obese people seem to be the ones striking against hunger. LOL!

i think that if you truly HATE somebody for being fat and try to hurt them physically then perhaps it should be considered a hate crime. Hate crimes are crimes provoked from hate and nothing else whether its the hate of somebody's race, religion, or anything else. However, i don't think that somebody calling you fat should be considered a hate crime. More likely just a rude individual who should keep their opinion to themself.  Maybe you are maybe you're not..and i think everyone who answered this with something about you being fat rather than answering the question should have just kept their answers out. In society, yes it is more acceptable to be thin, but "fat" is not necessarily a bad thing. Granted those who are obese should lose weight to be healthier, but a few extra pounds is in no way a crime.

who cares as long as your feeding your face. i don't pay much mind to it when i'm out with my kids. i don't let them know my disagreement concerning the illegals. i let them make their own minds up about other people.

NO. In fact, you're probably too skinny. You should NEVER think you're overweight because of what you see in the media/what other people say. You are YOURSELF and you should be comfortable with what you look like!

You're only fat if you think you're fat.  If you're happey the way you are now then don't do anything about it.  People should just live there lives happy and not cair what other people think about them.\n\nIf you don't like that answer go see a doctor and ask him what he thinks.

No honey. Sometimes i say that ... and it is just .. to ask. It doesn't make someone idiot. I'm not idiot, i can asure you that. Actually sometimes i say, does this make me look more fat ?, and in fact i'm  "not fat". It is just an expression, at least to me. Well, honestly i have no obsession about my weight.

I don't think that is true,perhaps because of the fat?\nDepends from person to person...

No - you know that too. \n\nWhy is that that people who aren't fat always have to ask this sort of thing... poor self image or something?
