People equate slimness with beauty, health, success, they don't want to associate or validate people with the 'wrong' shape/size/weight, they are embarrassed/ashamed by what they perceive as a failure in that person. That's not to say you can't celebrate or appreciate losing weight, but it's just my general experience/perception of how people treated me differently. Just generally warmer after losing weight.

My theory: They are more confident after losing the weight and people have more respect for them because we all know it’s not an easy journey.
As a fat who has also been previously fit, I would like to know the answer to this.😼 (I know, but I enjoy seeing what other people have to say)

Yes. Jackie Gleason was fatty fat and he had as much confidence in himself as anyone ever had.
