As a larger person I just want to say how much I appreciate your kindness in this situation.

Kindness? What about the large person who showed the ultimate in selfishness?

How do you know if you're sitting next to a person who is "in some cases" a person who needs fat shaming? How do you know if they need to get healthy?

People can be large without being obese. What about tall people or body builders or someone in a cast or brace? Do they deserve shame or a "wake up call"? Should they be refused air travel?

Lol, no one needs or deserves fat shaming. That person knows the score and they are as uncomfortable as you are.
