thyroid problems don't make you overweight, laziness does. even if he lost his thyroid, as much as he hates obesity, I doubt he would allow himself to become overweight.
Where to start? Okay first, a person who has a Thyroid gland issue CAN BECOME FAT even if they eat like a vegan and only once a day. Believe it or not, many over weight individuals started gaining weight because their thyroid gave out or weakened. Many medications and processed foods have chemicals that effect the thyroid gland and when you overload it, well you gain weight. HOWEVER, you are also right as well. While thyroid gland issues cause you to gain weight many people don't help the situation. For instance, a 126 pound woman's thyroid gives out and all of a sudden she's gained 30 pounds despite no change in lifestyle, that can cause a "guess I might as well eat a cheeseburger since I'm going to get fat anyway" mentality. Thus making the situation worse.
Now there are some scientist who want to turn obesity into a more serious disease and affliction. Many people who where once healthy and in shape who slightly gained weight for whatever reason (lazyness, thyroid gland, injury, or whatever) thought processes changed. For instance take the trainer Jillian Michaels she's all, "GET SOME! NEVER GET FAT!" Person, yet if she got sick or hurt and got fat by no choice of her own we would love to think that she'd still be "GET SOME, LOSE THIS WEIGHT!". Yet scientists say former healthy individuals who became fat actually became more depressed then people who grew up being fat and a hard time finding the motivation to lose the weight.
WHY? Because the former healthy person often feels defeated and like they're worthless for even allowing themselves to ever get that way. They know how it felt to be healthy and now they have to change everything to try to get back that way.
When you're healthy it is easy to stay healthy because you are just keeping everything the same. However, being fat and trying to get healthy is truly a challenge because you are fighting and clawing your way back. It requires a very VERY STRONG will. Even many formally healthy people have issues with it, for instance many retired or former Military men and women.
So is it wrong to despise fat people, absolutely NOT. We where never designed to be such heavy slobs. However, we should at least give fat people a chance to show us which kind of person they are.
Are they someone who is fat due to injury, sickness, or no control of their own like being pregnant or just given birth. Or are they a lazy disgusting slob that can't say no to McDonald's 5 times a day.
One is a person who is deserving of her understanding and patience and even help if they ask. The other is not somebody it can really be trusted because if they can't control themselves enough to say no to a cheeseburger then how can you know that they have enough control in their life to be your friend.
Sorry for the long post.
you know thyroid problems have no relation to stress/emotion levels, right? and if being fat isn't intentional (ie has a legitimate medical cause.. basically only a thyroid problem would qualify) then its not wrong. thats exactly what the question says.
Is it normal to really dislike fat people?

Try not to direct too much emotion at this, you might end up with a thyroid problem someday. Karma really is a bitch.
