Weight bias and stigma is ever present. Many of my pediatric patients living with obesity are subject to bullying all the time - not only outside the home but I can also happen inside the home. Take a moment and read this book!

Today is World Obesity Day! It’s a day to recognize and bring awareness to Obesity and clarify what it is and what it is not:

It IS: a chronic, multifactorial, and often relapsing disease.

It is NOT: a lack of willpower, the patient’s fault (or parent’s fault in the case of childhood obesity), a choice, or laziness.

Childhood obesity is rising and as many as 85% of youth with obesity will have obesity as adults.

Now is the time to treat the disease and dispel myths and conquer biases that exist in the world.

I hear it often that making better choices requires so much time and effort. You either choose convenience or healthy options.

Do you have 4 minutes?

I used frozen berries to cut time (and cost!).

What are some of your time saving hacks?

I encourage families to not talk about foods in a negative way- so there are no junk foods or unhealthy foods or bad foods.

There’s just food.

All foods are good but we can make them better and also make some best choices.

I went through this exercise with my kids and had them decide what they wanted to do to up level their “good” food, which today was box mac & cheese.

How have you up leveled some good foods this week?
