this is very true, my sister used to be very thin naturally, but she'd constantly be getting nasty comments, the one which horrified me the most was when she was walking to the bathroom in a restaurant and someone said as she passed 'she's probably going to throw it all up now'

I think with so many people being overweight, it has become more accepted, and saying rude things about fat people is seen as more nasty than comments about thin people, as you said!

I really try not to make comments about either fat or thin people, but if I know they can't hear me... well I'll be honest. I might think something nasty that is weight based if i don't like something else about them - like their personality or whatever. I wouldn't do that within their hearing though, I really do try not to say things that would hurt peoples feelings as a general rule. A little rude thinking is ok occasionally though, right?
