The right to criticize an Olympian’s weight?

Does the public have the right to criticize an Olympian’s weight? Seems to me that the obvious answer is "no," but I thought I'd throw it out there for discussion:

Edit...Ok compared to a few years ago, there's a few extra pounds on her frame. Still, it's really absurd to make comments about her size.

If there's any criticism to be done how about starting here. 354 pounds isn't just a little bit big boned. Albeit in Mangold's case it's probably helping her.
