✨Community and connection for people in larger bodies living in a weight-centric world.✨

We're excited to be offering the Finding Fat Joy group again! This virtual group starts on 11/5 and will be co-facilitated by social worker, Samantha Millette and dietitian, Megan Gamerman who both have lived experience in fat bodies. 🧡

This is a virtual space for people living in fat bodies to find community and connection 😊

Adults of all gender identities are welcome to join us to share lived experiences. The peer support group creates space for people to share their challenges and support one another. We do not fixate on hating or changing the body. Rather, it’s a space to move through those experiences in community and ultimately make more space for joy. 💫

What past participants are saying…

“I’ve been in shared space with people who share other identities of mine but never in fat space. It was really profound to be able to talk about the highs and the lows with other people who really ’got it.’ It has helped me realize that fat is just another of my identities, it doesn’t have to be a site of grief.”

“Fat Joy made a great impact on me. I am more comfortable in my body. The sense of community in the group is unmatched. I felt very seen and connected.”

“I was very reluctant to become part of a support group. I didn’t know what to expect and I was pretty sure that my experience wasn’t relevant or relatable to others. It wasn’t that I thought I was special, it was that I was isolated and wallowing in my hurt and isolation. What I discovered over the summer was that with each session I was able to be more loving and accepting of myself.That my lived experience was echoed in the lives of the other participants and facilitators. I gained so much wisdom and strength from this experience and I am not as afraid to confront issues or attitudes that seek to make me see myself as less. I am not alone so I am not afraid.”

You can learn more about the group at our FREE informal information session on Wednesday, October 29th at 7pm. Details and link to register here - https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1760808408349?aff=oddtdtcreator

This is so well said. Discomfort and distress are not the same as danger. Evaluating the feelings and body sensations is not self-invalidation. Is self-awareness, self compassion and good learning!!

I could listen to Anna talk all day long. She’s hosting a Non-Fiction Nutrition workshop. Either a title that catchy you can’t afford to miss it!!!

I spent some serious time on this. AI generated the music but I went through 10-15 different songs before finding one that matched the spirit of my song. Lyrics are 95% me. I did a lot of editing and reworking on this - it feels like I made it. I can’t imagine what ownership professional musicians feel for their projects that require so much more work than I put into this little internet nugget.

I have some other songs done and plan to post some more!

Isolation is a common experience for neurodivergent individuals struggling with Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID). Most social activities, even those specifically for neurodivergent folks, involve food. Which is why we're offering this group.
