#obesity #stigma

[Chris Thompson, MD @MetabolicEndo]

Lecture by @JNadglowskiOAC from the @ObesityAction coalition at @WCITDiabetes addressing stigma and discrimination around #obesity and how this bias is tolerated by the vast majority with real implications to health and few voices to help

[Philip Schauer, MD @PSchauerMD]

It was a shameful portrayal of obesity bias by chastising a police officer for having Bariatric Surgery to treat his obesity. I’m at a Congress @WCITDiabetes on weight stigma. It’s pervasive in our culture and we as a nation must move past this and all forms of prejudice.

[Ximena Ramos Salas @xramossalas]

@UConnRuddCenter Dr. Rebecca Puhl eloquently synthesized 18 years of her own weight stigma research and decades of international research in this area. Call to action is to take a serious approach to eliminating weight stigma. #WCITD19 #weightstigma #consensus

[Violeta Popov, MD PhD @PopovVioleta]

There is not only #stigma of #obesity But also stigma of treatment. Interesting data presented by Dr. Flint from @UniversityLeeds that TV shows like the Biggest Loser may increase maladaptive behaviours and stigma. @EndTheStigma @ObesityAction #WCITD19 @WCITDiabetes

[Ximena Ramos Salas @xramossalas]

Powerful presentation by @pattynece on her lived experience with weight stigma. Left me in tears but inspired to do something about this social injustice and oppression. #WCITD19 #weightstigma #consensus @ObesityCan @ObesityAction @EASOobesity @ObesitySociety @WorldObesity

[David Arterburn, MD, MPH @davearterburn]

Great sessions on obesity stigma and access to effective obesity treatment this week at #WCITD19 with world experts including @ConscienHealth and @JNadglowskiOAC
