摘要：The present study in the field of phenomenology shows in biographical fragments of an obese in the city of Salvador, Bahia, a socio-cultural panoptic construction that mercilessly judges obesity, inscribing it as an experience of suffering, learning and therapeutic support for self-care. 'Obesity and the world' is how this human set is defined without subject / object duality. This dual breakdown takes place in the construction of belonging between one and the other, reciprocally. The world surrounds obesity and this constitutes itself as being-obese-being in a process of belonging in everyday life. It is, therefore, a temporary event in which the obese remains in its constitutive origin as a fattening subject, in a fattening society. Apparently, he expects nothing from the other who watches her, but resents. Normal and pathological are confused to veil or unveil obesity as a social symptom. It, the obese, is perceived in a reduction of public space caused by the stigma of the other. The obesity perceived by the look of the other invites the obese to break the impersonality and to turn to itself. In speculating there is no clear reflection, but a conflicting image in which are mixed senses as rejection and self-worth. The look that rejects it is the same one that distances itself and judge’s obesity. Thus, obese when turning against its image, obesity, experiences a unique learning of what can observe and is open with body therapies to experience the body in society.
