I personally don't struggle with my weight, but whether I do or not is enitrely irrelevant. Body shaming is a big problem, and such conversations need to be kept between a medical provider and the patient. Someone's weight should not be up for discussion on a public platform.

Also, I do think it is good for people to love and accept themselves, no matter what their weight. In fact, in most cases this is the first step toward resolving health problems and addictions, which is something I am experienced with. When I felt ashamed of my addiction, I was caught in a circle of guilt from which I would never have become sober. It wasn't until I learned to accept myself where I was at that made it possible for me to heal.

But I'm not applying my experience to everyone else. This may vary by individual, which is why it is paramount that these discussions happen on an individual basis between the patient and provider.

For the vast majority of overweight people it is a symptom of their poor lifestyle and not an actual medical condition.

It is? This sounds more like a moral judgment based on nothing but perception and the way fat people os portray in media and exactly wat the fat acceptance movement try to fight against.

Could you please translate that to freedom units so that people can understand it?
