They Wanted To Kick Me Off The Plane Because Of My Excess Weight: I Had To Put Those Heartless People In Their Place \ud83d\ude22\ud83d\ude22<\/p>\n
I Am 63 Years Old, And I Have Spent My Whole Life Learning To Love And Accept Myself As I Am. An Illness Disrupted My Metabolism, And The Weight Gain Was Not My Choice. But People Don\u2019t Always Want To Understand That.<\/p>\n

That Day, I Was Flying As Usual. I Had Bought My Ticket In Advance And Chosen A Window Seat So I Wouldn\u2019t Disturb Anyone. I Sat Down, Fastened My Seatbelt Carefully, Put My Bag Under The Seat, And Got Ready For The Flight.<\/p>\n
But A Few Minutes Later, A Young Woman About 25 Years Old Appeared Next To Me \u2014 Beautiful, Well-Groomed, Wearing A Stylish Suit. She Looked At Me And Immediately Made A Face.<\/p>\n
Oh Great,\u201d She Said Loudly, Not Even Trying To Be Polite. \u201cAnother Fat Woman Taking Up Half The Seat. I\u2019m Not Flying Like This!\u201d<\/p>\n
I Felt A Sharp Pain Inside. But At First, I Stayed Silent. The Young Woman Continued:<\/p>\n
\u201cFat People Should Stay At Home And Not Fly,\u201d She Snapped At Me. \u201cDo You Ever Think About Others?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
