My thoughts on the matter are that heavy people are just like thin people - they want to look good. Photographers of the world: looking good does not mean looking thin. Don't assume that your clients are unhappy with their looks/weight.

That said, everyone benefits from standing straight, shoulders back, chin extended. Have fun with them.
Very well said. You'll find some people who are unhappy wiith ANY photo, but overall, large or small, they just want to look good.
