Your mother has #obesity Your father has obesity. Your child has obesity. You have #dieted your entire life and you have obesity. When will society listen to the medical evidence... and stop blaming the victim and start treating the problems of this disease?

Good morning! Quick reminder from us: #weight is not in any way connected with your worth, beauty, intelligence, capability, personal hygiene ... the list goes on. Enough of the false assumptions. Enough of of the misinformation. Enough of the stigmatisation. #EndWeightStigma

Excellent image in sean wharton presentation at #6COS šŸ‡ØšŸ‡¦ showing why failing to keep weight off after weight loss is NOT character or discipline, but pure biology. Have you ever dieted and then regained the weight back? Not your fault! Biology. #obesity #svmed #vĆ„rdpol

Wow The Telegraph - nice job with the Tanya Gold click bait. I look like that @nike mannequin, and I’ve done a 10k, a half, & a marathon this year. And there’s another 10k & a half coming up. If you think obese women can’t run you’ve clearly been living under a rock.

Learn About Taking Action! Obesity is a complex disease and is also often misunderstood and stigmatized which is why we need our OAC community members to help take action on issues that matter to them. Learn more about #OACAction: obesityaction.org/action-center/… #YWM2019
