Though I don't believe anyone should be mocked or bullied because of their weight, I don't believe obesity should be something to be encouraged. On a weekly basis I deal with people who are suffering from alements directly caused by there weight. Sadly I regulary have to work with a boy of 16 who is nearly 30 stone who condition means he is unable to walk or merely sleep lying down. His condition is purely down to his parents allowing him to eat far too much and him not doing any physical activity.
