    Dear Twitter, I know that I'm fat. I see it every day in the mirror, and I feel it when I play sports or settle into an airplane seat. It's not my favorite feature. But it's your favorite feature. I read about it a lot here. 1/2

        I'm going to do something about it. Not for you, but for me - and for my family. I'd like you to do something in return: stop turning your disagreements with people into personal invective. And maybe cheer me along as I drop some pounds. I'll post updates.

        Jon, you're wonderful! Twitter is full of bitter trolls - ignore them. I suggest changing your notifications to only see what verified people say. Xo

        No one should mock your weight - that’s just uncalled for & rude. The HRC/Oprah speech comparative was just as wrong & rude. The constant smears & jabs are unfair - especially for a woman who no longer holds a political office.

        Dude. So unnecessary. Don’t respond to nonsense like that. It’s completely out of bounds.

        Dear Johnathan Allen, We know Hillary didn't win the election. We see it every day when we see Trump on TV, and feel it when he embarrasses our nation or undoes any progress we've made. But it's your favorite topic. You write about it a lot.

        Fat shaming sucks. How about we stop bashing her & focus on the horrible POTUS we got now!? I still don't understand why you brought Hillary up when talking about Oprah ANYWAYS! This type of bs is what makes NBC look like shit to the majority of Democrats(Hillary supporters)🌊🌊

        "You are fat" is seriously what you took from all the response to your crappy article? Quite a way to make it all about you.

        I dropped 30 lbs over the last 9 months. Loved listening to political audio books and biographies on the treadmill...including Shattered. So thanks for the help! Best of luck!
