Agreed, I absolutely hate it. No question. I didn't think there was anything wrong with the navigation at the top. The fact it's now on the left and so incredibly IN YOUR FACE is specifically annoying. I don't need to stare at my profile and certainly don't need all these obtrusive drop downs. It's not even like they're all over there either, there are still navigation options at the top. Worse yet, I can' minimize the hide the menu and now I have to stare at my f-ing face on EVERY page?

100% absolutely terrible update. Makes me not want to come back here. There wasn't anything wrong with the old navigation bar at the top. And like fatiluvr says, the forums are almost impossible to use now. It's so large and gaudy. Why are the previews so big? Why are there any previews on the main forum page at all? I'm really struggling to understand these changes are supposed to make my experience here better.

Thanks for the effort, but I hate it.

As I have gone past 500 lbs I find normal straight fronted chairs uncomfortable. This is mainly due to the weight of my belly pushing the fat on the underneath my legs into the front edge of the chair.

I was seated on the corner edge of my bed like a saddle I guess and wow that was comfortable. With my legs open to the left and right my belly could sag down onto the front corner of the bed and be supported with out pushing on my legs.

In away it’s a square seat with no back that sit on the corners, you could design in a back. Now to find some.

See image in my pics.

I can't help but wonder if there will come a day when fat people are forced to take such drugs.

Never going happen. The sad truth is that fat people that don't want to be fat are way too easy to make money off with gimmicks and false promises for anyone to want to get rid of all fat people.

What kind of dystopian novels have you been reading lately? We don't do that for any other medical condition. So why would we do this for obesity?

There are so many amazing medications variety of things. However, we do not force people to take these medications as a blanket thing to do. Why? Because it would be unwise.

Often, whatever medical condition a person has can be resolved with lifestyle changes. However, if that doesn't work, then the doctor may supplement other things as well. Sometimes, it's medication. Sometimes it's something else. However, since not all patients are created equally, they may not be candidates for specific treatments for a variety of reasons. Adding to that, you can refuse the treatment.

This doesn't even consider the economic, legal, and ethical reasons why no one is going to force every fat person to take medication and lose weight. Yet, Y'all are worrying over nothing.

Over the past two years, people have been fired and so on for refusing to take Covid vaccine. I myself took it, but there you go -- people being forced to take a particular drug.

Munchies:
Are you comparing obesity to a global pandemic? Because that's what that sounds like.
