Fat Acceptance raises concerns among health care professionals

Seems that Doctors and Researchers are again attackingFat Acceptance. Some of them just seem not to be able to let FatAcceptance exist in any fashion.

 

Here is a Radio clip and article from a Public Radio Station in Philadelphia:

Fat Acceptance raises concerns among health care professionals


Theonly positive statements in the artice came from one professional whosaid that she does not use weight and numbers as a benchmark for herclients, the rest of the professionals were anti-fat.


What I do notunderstand is that professionals talk about the growing obesityepidemic, yet they attack people who are already fat, shouldn't they befocusing on people 180 lbs and under? I have been over 200 lbs sinceJunior High, being plus size is not a recent "epidemic" for me. Be sure to look at the comment section for thought from the fat-o-phobicpublic. All I can say is that if you are fat you should be some howsupporting Fat Acceptance.
