This #ObesityCareWeek, let's unite to challenge the stigma and push for compassionate, evidence-based care for those living with obesity. Obesity is not a choice but a chronic disease influenced by a complex interplay of genetics, environment, and social factors. It's time we recognize the importance of addressing obesity with the same urgency and empathy we afford other chronic diseases. By signing the pledge, we acknowledge the five undeniable principles of obesity care: acknowledging obesity as a chronic disease, understanding its complex biology, recognizing its early impact on health, advocating for effective treatments, and fighting weight bias, stigma, and discrimination. Let's pledge to create a society that respects and understands the complexities of obesity, values science-based care, and supports everyone's journey towards better health. Join me in making a difference. #EndWeightBias #HealthForAll #ScienceBasedCare For more information and to take action, visit https://lnkd.in/ecuHjyVs.

#ObesityCareWeek is a week dedicated to changing the way we think and care about obesity! "Unlike most other diseases, obesity is one that continues to be stigmatized, and in many cases, those impacted struggle to receive adequate care. Obesity Care Week aims to raise awareness, educate, and advocate for people living with obesity and provides us the opportunity to create lasting change." Let's join hands in raising awareness and support for those affected by obesity. This week, let's strive to foster understanding, empathy, and access to comprehensive care for individuals living with obesity. Together, we can break down stigma and promote a culture of inclusivity and support. ?? Find out more and sign the pledge at www.obesitycareweek.org #ObesityCareWeek #EndWeightBias #HealthAtEverySize

Check this out and join the efforts that the EveryBODY Covered campaign is doing to ensure that everybody has access to evidence-based obesity care options! Comprehensive obesity care should be covered just as care for other chronic diseases is covered—it’s only fair. Comprehensive obesity care is needed to help people lose excess weight and reduce the potential risk of other chronic diseases. They are working to: - Dispel myths about obesity—recognizing obesity is a chronic disease—and sharing information about its impact on women throughout their lives - Empower women of diverse backgrounds?to use their voices to share their journeys and advocate for coverage - Urge employers and elected officials to ensure coverage?for the full range of evidence-based obesity care and treatment The EveryBODY Covered campaign is led by the Alliance for Women's Health & Prevention
