MessyOne,
On a certain level, I see where you're coming from. A little bit of stigma might do some good: people often complain about how it's "easier" to be fat than thin. But it is a really dangerous slope. Too dangerous. Your employers' control over what you do should end at the office door.

I guess I would be okay with it if it were directly from the insurance companies. I mean I wouldn't be jumping up and down with joy, but it's employers' involvement that bothers me most. No, I take that back: the whole thing bothers me. It's unfair and it's discriminatory.

Surely there's a better solution to our obesity problems than docking people's wages because they don't meet the government's criteria for what a healthy person is supposed to weigh.
