I just posted this on my Facebook page. My only comment was, would the person who wrote this email call Oprah a bad example? There is nothing wrong with being proud of who you are.

I have a crooked nose, so does this mean people should start telling me to get surgery? Why does obesity give people the green light to make comments and assumptions?

The news show did ask the guy to respond to her editorial, and he still showed his ignorance.

This is what I wrote on my facebook: WKBT's Jennifer Livingston addresses a bully who chastised her for not being a better role model for the community. In his unsolicited criticism Kenneth Krause noted, "Obesity is one of the worst choices a person can make." The man later released a statement suggesting Livingston "transform herself" over the next year. The man has no idea of her history or health, and yet he thinks it is OK to criticize her. Obesity isn't a choice; it can't always be fixed in a year. And just because someone is obese doesn't mean they aren't doing something about it even before you so rudely pointed out their obesity.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
