More Compassion, Less StigmaWe’ve received so many messed up messages about food, eating, and our bodies that we can internalize these messages in harmful ways. Instead of pathologizing and discriminating against diverse bodies, let’s appreciate all the colors of the body rainbow. Let’s nourish ourselves with more compassion and less stigma. Eating to self-soothe is a perfectly valid coping mechanism. Eating for pleasure is perfectly valid too. Food and pleasure are too often weaponized against fat bodies. Having emotions while eating is simply being human. Fat phobia impacts all bodies. We have inherent value regardless of our body's shape, size and abilities.
