This is the Weight and Healthcare newsletter. If you like what you are reading, please consider subscribing and/or sharing! You can also gift a subscription to a friend, family member, even a healthcare practitioner! Over the years of working with healthcare practices, I’ve developed an informal audit for practices to use to become more fat*-friendly.
I live in France, where health at every size is still mainly considered as a way to encourage people to stay at high weight... You know what I mean, France is THE country of beautiful and model sized women (irony)!
As my doctor doesn't know where to refer me for any diagnostic center or practitionner, I have to find out myself, and also, to find out if it is inclusive or not, whatever marginalized identity considered...once there, so too late.
I would like to find out someone like you in my country, and work together to change things.

Would a magazine on food and or nutrition be considered "diet culture" and why?
I love this. I usually work in food access/community kitchen spaces, and I’m going to work on applying these ideas there.
