Transcript:
The tiny slider. The teeny hot dog. The beansy cupcake. The itsy-bitsy 100-calorie packs of chips, cookies, crackers, candy and ice cream. From a whole new world of innocent, irresistible mini-foods, a whole new body image: Cathy: It isn't "obesity"! It's "obese-ini"!

Well, you’re not supposed to eat 30 of them at a time, Cathy!

Better yet than ‘diet and exercise’ - just eat real food and do some real activities.

Poor Cathy, even it entered in to her body in small parts, loosing them will show her a whole new meaning of littleness.
worse than obese-ini is the slim-iniing

Because a lot of a good thing has to be better, right? Right? (rolling my eyes)

She could give it her level best shot at eating well and exercising, and still be chubs – just a healthier chubs…that’s just the way some people’s bodies are.
The greatest thing of all would be for her to to live a healthy life, learn that her life is infinitely more than what she sees in a mirror, and let go of a foolish, unrealistic body image. (It wouldn’t be much of a comic strip then, of course. As somebody once said, humor is tragedy with a happy ending.)

Seriously, lighten up folks. If you ever fought a weight problem, those 100 calorie packs sounded too good to be true. I’m with Cathy – smaller should be better! I’ll miss you Cathy. it’s been a great relationship!
