#Lipidema is an often overlooked consequence of #obesity. Treatment includes nutritional management and #GLP1 medications. Skin feels granular, leathery instead of soft and uniform. It can be painful as it is associated with inflammation. #ScottsdaleWeightLoss#medicalweightloss
@Oprah Thank you for sharing your struggles when you stopped #glp1 meds. #obesity is a chronic disease. Fortunately treatable but sadly not curable. Like high cholesterol and high blood pressure, meds may need to be taken for life.
@PeterAttiaMD I loved #outlive. Respectfully, please use people first language. One isn't "obese." They have obesity. One isn't diabetes, they have diabetes. It's all about having a disease, but obesity is not an identity. https://t.co/bmb7HXUOsk
Hey @drsanjaygupta please use people first language when referring to the disease of #obesity. Less stigmatizing to say someone “has obesity,” rather than they “are #obese” on @CNN today . They “have #diabetes” vs they “are diabetes.” It’s a #disease, not an identity. #CNN
