Losing weight isn't as easy as eating less or changing your diet. Something you may not know, your blood type has a little to do with it. Research it. Hormones have something to do with it. Research it.
Telling people to simply "lose weight" is simply preposterous.

When it finally hits the fan it is great to be fit but it is also great to have some fat stored up. You don't see the bears complaining.

True, but you will see a lot of fat people complaining.
When their bodies start to burn the fat, it will release toxins into their blood and they will start to feel very sick. A lot of them will feel like they're dying because they haven't eaten. Ever seen the contestants on The Biggest Loser in their first week?
Good thing is, it only lasts a few days though. After that, they will have a huge advantage.

So, I suggest you lose the weight.
Eskimos do OK
fat is a survival trait in that environment
fat, when not due to sick food, is the body's reaction to a starvation period..the body socks away the fat when there is food so as to be prepared for the next starvation period
