Oh, I want to clarify. I did not mean that I wanted to go tell him he was obese, needed surgery, etc. That would be terrible, and was not what I was thinking at all. I don't think I'll say anything, but I felt a strong desire to share my experience with him, in hopes of giving him hope, or ... I don't know. But it was well intentioned and a desire to share with someone that there is a better life, and we all deserve to have that life.

I guess it's just too touchy a subject and my gut tells me that no matter how well intentioned I may be, it would come to no good.

Still, I am curious if anyone has told their story to a stranger. I don't usually feel this desire, and am surprised by it.
