    This article makes me upset!! I am  size 18, 200 lbs (almost exactly like Marliyn Monroe!!!) and have been labeled overweight by South Carolina's Department of Health. That pisses me off, but that's what ticks me off about this article! Because of my "weight problem", I was horribly lectured for 35 minutes and was given many papers telling me that I was fat and what to do to make me better, like I was a sick diseased cripple. Notably, at the bottom of those papers was the surgeon general's little waring label things saying that this was an approved document for my health. Now, sorry but it's true, I refuse to take weight "fixing" solutions from someone who "suffers" from the same thing!! I am not trying to be ugly. It's the truth. Thank you for the opportunity to share opinions!
