My wife cares about peoples in weight in so far as its an indicator of whether they take care of themselves, but mostly about it's curiosity and perhaps a little bit of "Oh maybe that's why people treat him/her that way". In a partner or potential partner it ranks pretty low for my wife, but fitter people do feel better to hug and be physical with apparently.

My wife cares about my weight as mostly a health issue not so much an attractiveness issue, but I think once you've been with someone long enough even sighted people feel that way.

She cares about her own weight because she cares a great deal about her appearance. She can't see what she looks like so she's extra careful to look good and dress well at all times.

That's just one person perspective though. Blind and vision impaired folks come from all walks of life.

I care about my weight is far is anyone else there is a whole host of reasons why someone could be overweight so I tend not to judge or say oh they just don’t care about them selves. But I think that’s true for both Blind and cited

I pretty much obsess about it, which isn't particularly good either. I'd say some blind people do care, others do to a point, and others don't at all. Which is probably a reflection of the population overall. Many blind people are overweight in my experience but there are so, so many reasons for that. Lack of access to sports and fitness, economic instability which makes it difficult to eat healthily, multiple health conditions etc.

Tldr it's complicated.

Yes just like a sighted person would

I would guess it depends on the individual. I know some people who don't care much about their physical appears, and others who care a great deal.

Diabetes is also a major cause of vision loss, and many people with diabetes also have to watch their weight and exercise to keep their blood sugars down.

I care about my weight because I want to be healthy and for that reason I care about other people’s weight. If they are obese, that is a signal to me that they don’t care about themselves.

Why not? are all blindies suppose to be fat? Haha! I care about weight not in terms of attractivness but America is one of the most overweight nations, so in terms of health. If I hear anyone is 300 pounds alarm bells are going to go off! No one needs to be 300 pounds if you look at the bmi scales. I looked at a 5;6 sort of your average and the heaviest is 154. A lot of people are in the 200s. Which is overweight unless you’re maybe 7 foot but I am unsure anyone should really be over 200. I mean 154 is heavy. There’s a lower number which is the lowest you can weigh and the highest the most and 154 is almost border kind of fat. My father about 5:4 ways maybe 120 not very much, and he’s fine, you don’t see bones. I am about 8 pounds over but considerably not bad. I am at least maintaining. No one would call me fat though. But I was at 110 at the least. Your goal weight is somewhere in between the numbers.

This isn’t really a blindness-related question. Just as any group of people, blind individuals have their own preferences, so some people will consider weight a factor in a given situation.
