How can public spaces be made more inclusive for fat people?

Check out our thoughts in this episode.

Remind people that thinness is not a state of grace, that people’s bodies change often, and that weight change is morally neutral, not a call for congratulations. We talk a bit about this in our episode on Beginnings and Endings.

How do I articulate the difference between thin people with ED and fat people with ED trying to access healthcare for recovery?

People often neglect that fat people can suffer from eating disorders.

If you are suffering from an eating disorder and need help, please visit the National Eating Disorder Association website.
