Sadly, that thin person has an overactive thyroid and can (and does) eat 10,000 calories a day. Those judging her don't see that.

Fat people eat 2000 calories a day, but have a piece of cheesecake after a Mother's Day dinner and the comments are, "I think she could have done without that slice of cheesecake. If I looked like that, I would only eat tuna fish!"

Sadly, that fat person isn't fat because of overeating, but because of an underactive thyroid, but those judging her don't see that.

I think you are missing the point.
