Relation Whit Food and Whit Our Bodies


My comment posted in Guardian on 30 June 2011 3:32PM

Almost all people don’t have a ridiculous relationship with their body because almost everyone at every age likes to be normal weight. The fact that people care about their outward appearance can’t be interpreted as a ridiculous relation with their own bodies.
A ridiculous relationship with food is caused by the fear of obesity.
Anorexia and others eating disorders are caused by the fear of obesity.
1. Anorexia does not always lead to thinness.
2. Anorexia will cause thinness or extreme thinness only in people who are already slightly underweight, at a normal weight, and those who are slightly overweight.
3. Anorexia and other eating disorders are common among obese people.
Anorexia and other eating disorders are ignored by the media, medical researchers and everyone else involved in the prevention and treatment of obesity, and that fact shows how ridiculed the approach to the problems of obesity and anorexia, and other eating disorders have become.
Particularly anorexia and other eating disorders are prevalent among children. All of the time, or at least most of the time, overweight and obese children feel guilty about eating and are ashamed of their bodies.
For adults, it is comfortable to talk about the problems of anorexia in underweight and extremely underweight children, but it is not comfortable to talk about the problem of anorexia among overweight, obese and severely obese children.
Adults affected with obesity or by the fear of obesity can’t have sympathy for children’s problems of obesity or eating disorders in children. The problem is that almost all the world’s adult population is affected by obesity and/or fear of obesity. The problem is further exuberated by the fact that the world-leading medical and nutritional experts, in one way or another, promote anorexia as a solution for obesity and type 2 diabetes.
Another problem is that medical doctors aren’t affected by obesity. There are many other obstacles to the rational discussion about the cause and solution for obesity and the solution for eating disorders. The problem is that people are so afraid of obesity that they are unable to engage in a productive discussion about the cause and solution for obesity and eating disorders.

The Myth of the “Health at Every Size” Ideology

Does “Health at Every Size” (HAES) mean: “Health at Every Level of Obesity”, Health at Normal Weight and Health at Every Level of Underweight.


It seems to me that the slogan “Health at every size” is misleading. I think that the real meaning of “HAES” can’t be: “Health at every level of obesity”, Health at normal weight and Health at every level of underweight.


Obesity, particularly severe obesity, is a serious medical condition along with being underweight and severely underweight.


I can’t imagine how people affected with severe obesity can be healthy, and I also can’t imagine how people that are severely underweight can be healthy while maintaining this weight
