12. whoah there... why are you attacking me?
As someone who was pretty big growing up, lost a lot of weight (because I could not afford a car and rode my bike everywhere I had to go, and could not afford to eat processed food very often), and is now in the middle somewhere, I have NEVER made fun of someone for their weight or coerced them, and I agree that the food industry sucks - as a vegetarian/near-vegan I know it's been hard as hell until recently to get an honest food label - some companies are starting to get better about it though.

It took years for me to lose weight and to feel healthier - and I did it because I wanted to. Sure some people made fun of me, but they also made fun of me for wearing glasses or my teeth or any number of reasons. Screw them.

i will assume you are just being angry, but it sure came across as attacking me even if you didn't mean to.
