Can you think of anything positive about being overweight?

I have been through some bad life experiences involving other people that weren’t related to my weight.
Anyway when I lost weight it made me feel better. It just made me think of I accidentally run into one of these people who made my life miserable in the future they would less likely to recognize me.

Several: you're harder to dislodge, you get more money when you donate plasma, you (assuming you have a goodly amount of body fat and it's not just muscle) float far better, you can more easily take a punch, you retain heat better (not so great when it's hot out, admittedly), you can immobilize people by sitting on them... the list goes on and on.

Better splash when cannonball-jumping off a diving board into a pool.

You KNOW... there's a cult TV movie from 1973 all about this very subject. Luckily, it's free to watch on YouTube. You should watch. I loved it in 1973 and still find it hilarious 51 years later.
