I love this. You’re absolutely right, on all counts. And thank you for also including those of us who are overweight and trying to recover from eating disorders. I’m a recovering (mostly) non-purging bulimic who tried desperately to exercise away the binges with extreme running and eventually realized that my middle-aged hormones simply wouldn’t do it anymore. All those years finally caught up with me. So now I’m fat, and at the same time, eating regularly is REALLY important for me. But no one ever looks at the fat girl and says “oh, honey, you should eat”. It’s more like “well, you could stand to skip a few meals anyway”. So much stigma.
