From an engineering point of view it makes really good sense because the better you can estimate a plane’s weight the better you can maximize efficiency blah blah blah. But these are humans not numbers, and it’s a bit rude…
Personally I think it’s a bit rude when someone is hanging over into my seat, pressed up against me and forcing me out into the aisle. I’d like to sit in 100% of my seat please.
I put some weight on over the pandemic and I do sympathise that losing weight is quite hard. But fuck if it got to the point I needed 1.5 seats, I’d either do something drastic about it (like the time I had 500 calories a day for a few months and dropped from 15 to 12.5 stone, sorry for the caveman units), or book two seats.
I will readily acknowledge that it was unsafe (I don’t think it’s a coincidence that’s when my heriditary hair loss kicked in). I was taking a vitamin supplement and using myFitnessPal to track calories, some days I only had 300 calories but most days I had 500-600.
For me, gradual weight loss seemed unattainable. I kept trying and failing. So I just said fuck it I’m going to do something drastic to lose the weight. Of course, having willpower and losing the weight gradually is the best way to do it.

Dude that’s a pretty insane diet. Seems pretty dangerous or you were way underestimating your calorie intake.

Nothing more to add. They can buy two seats.
If it’s rude they can buy 2 tickets for their fat ass and skip the requirements to be weighed
Humans not able to battle climate change, because they can’t admit their weight.
