What’s the best way to promote healthy body image in children and teens? -Stop commenting on their weight -Stop equating weight with health -Stop reinforcing fat phobic ideals -Encourage intuitive eating -Encourage body acceptance at every size #WakeUpWeightWatchers

Reminded this afternoon THINKseries that eating disorders come in all shapes and sizes. We must never judge a person on their exterior as this will never tell the complete story! #EDAW2018

Please read this by @fransaysnew in Huff Post about your loved one being in hospital for mental illness. It’s so honest. And inspiring. x.com/fransaysnew/st…

Wonderful article written by Raquel Reichard 🇵🇷 highlights the point this petition is about perfectly however it was written in 2015 and nothing about the media portrayal of eating disorders has changed. Help change that now #morethananimage #eatingdisorders mic.com/articles/11117…

It makes me so sad to see this, #eatingdisorders present in all shapes and sizes, using images of emaciated models just fuels the stigma that you have to look a certain way to be “ill” and can act as a dangerous trigger for thoes suffering.

ED's don't just impact the individual, but all of those around them. I wrote this for those who continue to fight alongside sufferers, even when things are tough and confusing. A message to the loved ones of an eating disorder sufferer… #eatingdisorders jadehelenablog.wordpress.com/2018/02/22/a-m…

Eating disorders can be as devastating for adults as children, but there are currently no waiting time targets for adults needing specialist treatment. Sign our petition calling on the government to introduce these standards for all ages: campaigning.beateatingdisorders.org.uk/page/17428/pet… #girlsontheedge

Research by Beat shows that in #Wales, on average, three years pass between the symptoms of an #eatingdisorder emerging and treatment starting. Ask your Assembly Member to support faster access to treatment now! campaigning.beateatingdisorders.org.uk/page/20502/act…

It’s Eating Disorders Awareness Week! 34% of UK adults were unable to name any signs or symptoms of eating disorders. This lack of awareness leads to a three-and-a-half year gap between symptoms emerging and treatment being sought. beateatingdisorders.org.uk/news-research/… #WhyWait #EDAW2018
