We have a special episode today which is for the loved ones of fat folks who are worried about their health or want them to lose weight. I am going to be talking directly to the people who deeply care about a fat person and may say or think something like “I don’t quite understand why they don’t eat in a certain way, or stick to a diet when they know it could have negative impacts on their health.” If you know someone who could benefit from hearing about weight science, and the impacts that living in a fat body has on fat individuals with personal stories then tune in and share. TW: mention of The “o words” and weight in pounds, I also read advice columns from people wanting their spouse to lose weight and that can be hard to hear.
