The way we talk about bodies matters.
Weight stigma can be present in medical care, media, conversations about food, and everyday comments about weight or appearance. These messages can leave people feeling ashamed, judged, or unsafe asking for the support they deserve.
This Weight Stigma Awareness Week, we’re continuing to challenge the idea that you can determine someone’s health, habits, or worth by looking at their body.
Every body deserves care rooted in dignity, compassion, and respect 💚 Weight Stigma Awareness Week
