Kindness and Encouragement

As someone whose weight has fluctuated up and down over the years I find it surprising that normally nice people think it's funny to subtley make fun of overweight people. 
(I've seen some fat joke photo posts lately on facebook that would have been discouraging and hurtful to those struggling with this issue posted by "nice" friends of mine!) 
We've got to love and accept people where they are at and if they want to overcome a bad habit whether it be smoking, alcoholism or overeating encouragement goes a long way!
I know people don't intend to be mean; I guess we all need to watch our mouths at times! If His Kindness leads us to repentance then our kindness will go a long way to helping others get the victory!
