That's what I do. Fortunately, on some of the other sites, "The Boot" for example, at least omit them from my page. Not sure if this happens to other viewers when I report it. I, too, get tired of seeing all this self-promotion/spam.

Fair point--I saw an episode just last week that involved a young woman who was not, to borrow the show's phrase, "sample size" and some of the challenges to getting a good fit for her. Why not just continue with the formula that brides are brides and that they are all coming into the boutique with issues of some sort?

You're kidding right? You know how people think and feel and move? Being overweight can be indeed dangerous yet so is ignorance. Are you blonde?

Lynnfisher: You are very very wrong in all you have said! Where do you get your ideas from? Oh yeah, those perky $6.00 fashion Mags and movies, media of the superficial kind. There is way more to life than a size number on your pants. I don't imagine there is a lot of difference between how a woman feels becuse of size, maybe brain matter.

.......im pretty sure fat people can turn steering wheels just fine...unless they're morbidly obese and cant drive at all.

Honestly.. your an idiot!! Im about 5'7 and 220.. I do not over eat and I go to the gym everyday.. stop commenting on something you know nothing about... One of my friends is actually on this show and she is also not a BEAST that has trouble driving.. and for the record.. we both get out fat asses out of bed and go to work everyday and pay our own medical insurance!!! AND IM ONE OF THE HAPPIEST PEOPLE YOU WILL EVER MEET, TILL I READ GARBAGE LIKE THIS.. Knowing my friend is one of the people you are talking about!! If this is what you do with your free time.. Id like to cast you in a show and call it.. I sit home and write negative things about people cause I have nothing better to do with my life.. Or LOSER for short!!

can you say "idiot?" ok, now go look in the mirror and say it...yea, that's right. good girl..first thing you said that made any sense.

Lynn you sound like a retarded person, i see more skinny people drop dead from all kinds of sickness.. Having curves does not mean fat.. Real woman have curves, you people think a woman at 100 lbs is normal. I'm a curvy, educated, happy and healthy woman who is in love with a man who finds me beautiful because i find myself beautiful. Stop your ignorance and accept the people the way they are and don't judge every body because you have seen a few obese people and think all of them feel the same.

Lynn,

How wonderful for you that you are SO perfect and SO qualified to diagnose all the problems that overweight people have! So you watch what you eat, well good goody for you! Exactly what makes YOU such an expert on overweight people? Just because someone's overweight dosen't give you the right to ridicue them and decide they are not as worthy as employees who are thin. Seems like you are just another thin person who is completely intolerant to those who are overweight, not to mention unempathetic! People like you are the reason why there is discrimination, I'll bet you would be the one who would decide not to hire somebody who has less than a perfect weight too...I really think you need to think before you speak and come off sounding like a bitch!

Hey Lynne Fischer....I read your comment....I almost busted my sides laughing....I couldn't help but comment on your comment...and here it is...ready...EAT ME!

Seeing something like this doesn't translate to me that it's okay to be fat. It just highlights the difficulties of finding something decent to wear when you're above the norm. I think you and others are reading too much into things. Anyway, there are lovely women at all sizes so let's dress them up!

As to the rest of what you've written which is quite full of generalizations and out of line. I, as an overweight person, work hard and miss no more work than my skinny or average sized coworkers (in fact I miss less work and need to make a conscious effort to book time off). I also have not had cause to see my doctor fortunately any more than for my regular checkups and the occasional cold. I'm not by far the only person like this so none of us are burdening the system. The true burden on the medical system comes from other sources that are too complicated to address in this forum. I would also remind you that like other people fat people pay for insurance, taxes, etc. and are entitled to the benefits they've earned!

Also, I have found that there's an equal distribution of unhappy, sad and often quite disagreeable people among all sizes. It's only because fat people "stand out" so to speak that you notice. Need I mention Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears, the Olsen sisters, etc. among the well-known people? All normal to very slender (and I believe one diagnosed as anorexic) and yet all have had openly unhappy, difficult periods in their lives.

Live healthily and keep your judgmental attitude to yourself lest one day you are judged by your standards.

you tell it like it is!!!
