That's a tough one, I'd personally say don't say anything you don't mean. People who are bigger know that they are big so it's better not to shower them with dishonesty i. e "no you're not" as it can come accross as patronising. Instead try to get them to see the good in themselves that aren't centered around their appearance.
But be careful not to fall into the trap of continuously validating a person who is unconsolable. I don't know if you've ever met anyone who chronically berates themselves, it doesn't matter what you say to them you can never reassure them and that's when you take a huge step back.
I just try to build a better understanding of a person as a whole to determine whether it's will be useful or to say anything but if you're a sure it's best not to say anything.
I know pandemic and all but this is not great i waited for a long time and then they just wanna kick me?

Hello,
People here do care, however this isn't a thread to expect replies on. Have you thought about starting a new thread to express how you are feeling? I'm sure people would respond there!
