That NYT article isn't remotely scientific. It's a long wail about how mean human bodies are to people who want to fit a societally approved model of beauty. Nowhere is it mentioned that a lot of recent studies refute the thin=always healthy and fat=always unhealthy model. Since it has now been fairly conclusively proved that the only way for a fat person to be a thin person is to adopt the psychological and eating habits typical of someone with a serious eating disorder, perhaps it might have been more helpful of the writer to look at the Health At Every Size movement (HAES).
