In “You Just Need to Lose Weight,” Aubrey Gordon equips readers with the facts and figures to reframe myths about fatness in order to dismantle the anti-fat bias ingrained in how we think about and treat fat people. Yet, these myths are as readily debunked as they are pervasive.
Fat acceptance “glorifies obesity.” The BMI is an objective measure of size and health. We’re in the midst of an obesity epidemic. Losing weight is easy-calories in, calories out. The pushback that shows up in conversations about fat justice takes exceedingly predicable form. The co-host of Maintenance Phase and creator of Your Fat Friend equips you with the facts to debunk common anti-fat myths and with tools to take action for fat justice.
