Thin people get the "but she doesn't look as healthy as she could" schtick too. She actually looks fine to me, but that's beside the point. I just don't think you can make an assumption about people based on their size. Anyway, they don't have any responsibility to you to look "healthy". I'm not even qualified to get into the ableism of it all. Statistics do not describe individuals!!!
