@KurboHealth If MFP has been shown in studies to create disordered eating in adults, what do you expect Kurbo to do for growing children? @ww_us #wakeupweightwatchers

[Kirsten Ackerman, RD @theintuitive_rd]

Growing bodies DO NOT need weight loss.

Implying they do sets the stage for lifelong eating disorders, disordered eating and body image issues.

A WEIGHT LOSS APP *IS NOT* HOW WE SUPPORT OUR CHILDREN.

@weightwatchers is well aware that they are more successful at weight cycling than weight loss. The idea that they are solving a problem they help to create by teaching kids to diet would be laughable if it weren’t so upsetting. #wakeupweightwatchers

[Anna Sweeney MS, RD, LDN, CEDS-S @DietitianAnna]

Beliefs about body and food that are developed during childhood and adolescence do not disappear as humans age. @KurboHealth training doesn’t stop when the app is deleted. This is about lifelong struggle with food and body. @ww_us #wakeupweightwatchers

@ajrober2 @TIME Learning about nutrition is not the same as telling a child they should have weight loss goals.

@ajrober2 @TIME Let me know how before and after photos of a seven-year-old child is promoting good health?

WHY ARE THERE BEFORE & AFTER PHOTOS OF CHILDREN?! HOW DOES THAT PROMOTE HEALTH?! That is extremely harmful! Especially when a child will continue growing, meaning weight increase too! This is wrong on so many levels! Predatory, even.

Kurbo has got to go!
I was a WW at the age of 12. I know the effects of dieting as a child. Leave the kids alone! We want to prevent eating disorders and negative body image, not create it!

Forever 21 x ATKINS BARS Extremely disappointed.
A harmful message to people with eating disorders, disordered eating, and/or negative body image issues.

People are shopping for clothing, not diet culture.
