Weight Stigma Is Not A Weight Loss Strategy

A recent article in Medscape which claimed that a "self talk overhaul may help patients achieve weight loss" was fury catnip for Louise, who followed the trail and found herself knee deep in a truly unhinged research paper. Weight loss researchers are now adding what they call 'weight stigma' training to their weight loss programs and the results are nothing short of mind boggling. Spoiler alert: weight stigma is NOT a weight loss tip! Data resistant weight loss researchers are desperately trying to protect their failing paradigm, and we're now in a bizarre new world where an experiment on weight bias is itself riddled with weight bias and will in fact worsen weight bias. None of these researchers can see the forest for the trees. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
