Size 14 is not fat either.

Heather is Obsessed with her figure. Really obsessed. And she bangs on about it all the time, whether it's when she's getting dressed (clothes seem to have shrunk) or failing to resist treats (the Krispy Kremes just call out to her). And, I have to say, it gets a little old. I know loads of girls are concerned about how they look, but that doesn't mean people want to read about it on every page. In fact the only saving grace regarding this is that Heather isn't a size 2 chica who asks 'Does my bum look big in this?' when she clearly knows it doesn't. Heather, however, does seem to spend her days trying to convince herself she's not overly large when, truth be told, she kinda is (NB: the title was originally for an American audience referring to their clothing sizes). What's most infuriating of all is that there is so much going on in Heather's life that you'd think she would realise how superficial some of her thoughts are. Sure, she may have chunky hips, but at least she's alive which is more than can be said for some of the students she's supposedly there to care for.
