First I have gained "some" weight since treatment began. Through out my life I was always considered skinny. Oh you should eat some more, like I wanted to personally be that skinny. Yes I'm a little off topic but when I seen the comment about people commenting on your weight loss it bothered me. You wouldn't tell someone they are heavy, why is it okay to comment on the skinny person. Okay, rant down, Scott, sorry I used your post to rant. Best to all.

That was a good rant. You're right that outsiders don't have a right to comment on your body, whether it's heavy, light, tall, short, recovering from chemo, or in a wheelchair. It sucks to be objectified like that (as any woman can tell us).
