That's an interesting story, I think (and a sad one, of course), and I'm sure that we all have something of the same thing. I've gotten to the point where I'm surprised when people don't recoil and treat me normally -- which I have to say happens more than the opposite. When I'm introduced to someone I've only talked with on the phone. I expect at least a wince, if not something more pronounced. I very rarely get it. Yet about 70 pounds ago, when I thought I looked at least halfway decent, I can remember many comments -- all from strangers, hairdressers, salespeople, etc. -- that I found quite hurtful.

It's a good question. I hope there are more answers
