 Big Fat Blog: The Fat Acceptance Weblog
Way, way too few and far between: Michael Berman has written a book called Living Large that looks at what it's like to be a fat man. ABC News has a brief article on Berman, and the Washington Post has a more complete one.
It's the story of a man who has struggled with a food addiction during his life, and is now largely at a point of acceptance.

 The 900 Club
Human beings have been getting remarkably fat since prehistoric times (to judge by such artifacts as the celebrated Venus of Willendorf), and accurate weighing is mostly a twentieth-century phenomenon, so the heaviest man or woman ever must always remain a matter of conjecture.
Welch achieved notoriety as a frequent guest on the Jerry Springer Show, first in his role as a female impersonator, and later (as his weight climbed to more than 800 lbs) as the fat man in Springer's TV sideshow.
In fact, Hebranko actually lost at least 50 lbs to a panniculectomy, and had additional fat tissue surgically removed from his arms, chest, and legs; he also suffered from severe edema, and had lost a great deal of water weight.

 Trans Fats 101 - Feature Story - University of Maryland Medicine
No human body has any need for these man-made fats.
Many manufacturers started including trans fats in their processed foods about 20 years ago to prolong their products' shelf life, but public health experts warn that these kinds of fats clog arteries and cause obesity.
Trans fats pose a higher risk of heart disease than saturated fats, which were once believed to be the worst kind of fats.

Spreading the tests across a period of time helps ensure that significant changes in your percent body fat are due to exercise and diet, rather than human error in body measurement.
It is usually quite accurate-- so if a man got 17 percent from this test, he could expect his true percent body fat to be anywhere between 15 and 19 percent.
You can test your body fat by many different methods, but we have developed a method that is both very accurate and convenient.

 CNN - Salon review: 'Fat! So?' - January 5, 1998
Are you getting fat?' 'I met a handsome fat man the other day.' 'Gee, I wish I could be fat like her.'" Learning to love fat is easier said than done, though, and it takes tremendous courage to remain impervious to the vicious loathing of an entire culture.
This 270-pound world traveler, aviator, Ivy League graduate and journalist is the Abbie Hoffman of fat power, a movement that seems all the more courageous for its utter lack of hipster cachet.
That may be the biggest problem with "Fat!So?" -- it's so ahead of its time that Wann's positivity can seem like wishful thinking.

 Hugo Schwyzer: Big Fat Blog
The reason that fat got identified as a feminist issue is that women are judged for it way more than men, which pretty much disproves the fat-phobic argument that they are interested in health, because it's far healthier to be a fat woman than a fat man.
Feminism and fat acceptance are obviously natural allies, since it's impossible to imagine a member of one movement ever criticizing the other movement.
But I remember some TV special about fat kids (we've all seen these in some shape or form) where a mother of a grossly overweight toddler said in self-righteous tones, "My baby is BEAUTIFUL just the way she is!" The implication was that there was no need to do anything about the child's weight.

 Transfat.htm
A man made substance which researchers suggest may be as bad for your health as saturated fat.
Although not much research has been done on the effects of trans fat in relation to health concerns, research has correlated trans fat intake with heart disease, diabetes, cancer, low birth weight, obesity, and immune dysfunction.
As the degree of hydrogenation increases, the proportion of polyunsaturates decreases, monounsaturates and trans fatty acids increase, and saturated fats increase slightly.

It's this "feeder" fantasy that many say has banished fat preference in people's minds to a bizarre fetish.
In the San Francisco Bay area, for example, there are so many fat-acceptance activist interests that network meetings are necessary to prevent events from overlapping.
Yet surveys show that fat people are underemployed and less likely to receive promotions than thin people, regardless of their job performance.

In man, pure deficiency of EFA has been studied mostly in persons fed intravenously.
Vegetable fats have been recommended for better health since the mid-1960s when we were asked to replace butter with margarine, and lard with corn and safflower oil in order to lower our cholesterol and reduce our risk of dying of heart disease.
By the mid-1970s researchers had discovered margarine raises cholesterol even more than butter, and even though vegetable oils might reduce our risk of heart disease they would greatly increase our risk of cancer, and make us fat.

A woman who is 20 years old with 9% body fat will be (a boy with a breast) anorexic and a man of the same age with 25% body fat will be overweight.

 Synesthesia.doc
Synesthesia is a Greek word meaning “together and perception” and is defined by Richard Cytowic in his book The Man Who Tasted Shapes as “the involuntary physical experience of a cross-modal association”.
She describes B as “a fat, ugly female named Betty” and grey-green V as “little men who have curly mustaches and wear ugly sweater vests”.
While some synesthetes tastes shape or feeling, such as chicken is has a “pointy” taste, while others hear and see colors, all, when describing their history with the trait, say they have always had it and were surprised when they found that not everybody else does.

Whatever JK Rowling may think, fat people are usually nicer than thin people, largely because they have to be.
