So Now I’m ‘Skinny’ by Comparison?

One of the most appalling things that happened to me as a result of becoming obese was getting desensitized to being overweight and having most people not recognize normal weight merely because so many people in my area, the whole state really, are morbidly obese. At my heaviest I was close to 240 pounds and people just called me chubby. That’s morbid obesity weight. Now at 172ish pounds, folks are telling me I don’t need to lose more weight. I’m only 5ft. 6 inches, so still very overweight!! But it looks ‘skinny’ compared to all the huge people around. I am not skinny and I am not trying to get skinny. I do not want to be thin. I just want to be at a normal, healthy weight.
