So the anti-fat bias is unfortunately alive and well, and it's in healthcare. And it just, oh my gosh, the medical fat phobia that creates even bigger problems and gatekeeping in terms of getting care. It's a very, very big issue. Huge. Yeah.

And someone says, I don't want to be treated that way. So I'm going to conform as if we can mold our body like it's clay. And that's the shocking part to a lot of people.

Because I eat this way. You know, it's like the day I don't remember when this was because now it's happened so much. It's a sad norm that you go to have a meal with family and friends and someone's apologizing for what they're eating or they're explaining. You don't need to explain to anyone why you're eating or why you're not eating.

And one of the ways I ask about this is, you know, if you're feeling an injury coming on, can you take a break? If you're feeling sick, can you take a break?
