Weight Watchers will meet at 7 pm.Please use the large double door at the side entrance.
Now there's a message to knock the self esteem of an overweight person.
Not only are they not good enough to use the front door but they need reminding they need large doorways! And this is broadcast to every passerby.
Now I'm sure there was no intent to hurt or put down, but it shows how words could be misconstrued. Fat people don't need any more assaults on their self esteem, even if they are intended.
The best way to toughen yourself against insensitivities such as this though is, apart from losing weight, to become more resilient. That is build your self esteem. You are worth it.

I like this post. I think it is very helpful to point out ways that we are being thoughtless in how we treat people who look different - it's a good reminder to be considerate of others feelings.
