    Hopefully this person finds the help they need, taking pics and spreading them around to make fun of them doesn’t help

      It’s not nice, but pretending they don’t have an issue also doesn’t help them.

      Some people literally can’t imagine themselves through the eyes of another, they need it spelt out to them in plain English.

      I’m not saying that this makes the post OK, but there is a middle ground to find. It’s not like this guy has been fat shamed for going to the gym, trying to fix himself.

      The guy is a legit freak of nature and that’s always going to open you up to stares and photographs, that sucks, but he wasn’t born that way nor did he simply wake up like that one day and it doesn’t suck as much as normalising such an unhealthy lifestyle.
