You're implying that losing weight makes you a better person, whether you meant to or not. Losing weight does not "improve" you, it simply makes your image more acceptable to society.After becoming a vegetarian last year I went from weighing 220 pounds, 6 feet 3 inches ( 99.7903 kg, 1.905 meters ) to being 140 pounds, 6 feet 4 inches ( 63.5029 kg, 1.9304 meters ).
I love the way I've managed to improve myself! (the Parcour hasn't hurt either)

Personally, I don't care about how I look. Vanity is the value I find most annoying in many people.
The "community" isn't always right, and in those cases, no person should allow things to be smooth. Some of the greatest tragedies in the world may have been prevented if reasonable people had fought against the status quo.There's tonnes of reasons to lose weight, acceptance from society is just one. And life will go a lot smoother if you're able to make peace with the way your community thinks.
That doesn't really work. If you did have a clone who was physically fitter than you, then he would be stronger, faster, have more stamina etc. I'm not saying that people should be judged on their appearance, far from it, but being in shape does make you a 'better'* person, purely from a biological standpoint anyway. I mean honestly, if you were given the option to instantly hit your physical peak for nothing, are you telling me you'd turn it down? I know I wouldn't, and it's nothing to do with society.What I take issue with is that losing weight is an improvement. If I had a clone that was more physically fit than me, I refuse to believe that just being in shape makes him better than me. That's nonsense; a person should not be defined by their appearance.
I like the way I look. I'm slim and I have a fast metabolism, so I can enjoy the bad food and keep my low weight. My hair is nice, but I do wish my eyes were a more interesting color than brown. Blue or green would be great. Or purple.
The only problem right now is my face, I've got too many pimples, probably because of a nasty habit I've got. :(
