Wow, glad I am out of fandom now if that is the case, never thought anything about weight or heard anyone in particular talking about weight except either rapid gains or loses.
I remember that we did need to make sure that any T-Shirts were Large and above because the number of people who would actually fit a smaller size were few and far between, but I never heard anyone talking about weight.
SF fandom by it's nature is either sitting in front of a TV or movie screen or reading, not generally likened to extreme exercise, so it would tend to gather more of the overweight or larger person. But hey, we used to go to parks and through frisbees and go camping and walks along the beach and parties and lot's of things.
The only time I remember anyone discussing weight waqs the obscenly overweight Americans who needed wheelchairs to get around in.....
