Don't leave fat people out of your DEI goals: With talks of weight loss challenges popular at the start of the year, creating a space for plus-size workers to feel welcome has just as much to do with inclusion as any other group.

As a fat person, I hate the first few weeks of January with a fiery passion.

Following every holiday season, there’s seemingly no escape from the weight loss industrial complex. Social media is inundated with weight loss ads, people are constantly posting fitness goals, and gyms are in your face talking about “beach bods.” The entire world embraces the disordered eating I worked so hard to escape while gleefully saying, “Your body shouldn’t exist.” To be honest, the world does a good job of that year-round but really cranks it up a notch this time of year.

Best of luck.

I already get the thyroid checked as it has been low for years... also, been taking the probiotics as well.

That’s great! Best of luck and patience with changing your food life—slowly, for permanence!
