Mark's Daily Apple Thursday, July 28, 2022 11:00 AM Hey folks. Board-Certified Health Coach — and Primal Health Coach Institute's Coaching Director — Erin Power is here to answer your questions about weight loss, diet culture, and health at different sizes. If you're wondering how these fit into a Primal approach to eating and lifestyle, read on! Have a question you'd like to ask our health coaches? Leave it below in the comments or over in the Mark's Daily Apple Facebook group. Tamara asked: "Can you settle a debate between my sister and me? I am so sick of diet culture and fat shaming. Yes, I'm a large-sized woman by some standards, but I feel fine and am otherwise healthy. My sister insists that can't be the case and keeps telling me to lose weight or go to the doctor. This infuriates me and makes me feel like crap about myself. Please weigh in: Can you be overweight and still be healthy?" I have immense empathy for anyone struggling with fat shaming or the painful, harmful effects of mainstream diet culture. I'm so sorry you've experiencing this, Tamara. Shaming, stigmatizing, or stereotyping someone about their body size or other aspects of physical appearance is never okay. It's also the exact opposite of what usually encourages a meaningful and productive approach to achieving health and wellness. Having this come from a sister or other family member is especially rough. Family dynamics tend to be long practiced, deeply triggering, and difficult to shift. Plus, it's just not as easy to walk away from a relationship when it's with a family member. It's never comfortable to be in relationship with someone who oversteps boundaries and comments on or criticizes your body or weight. Many people unfortunately experience such treatment from family members, partners, friends, colleagues, or even strangers on the Internet. Again, this is never okay. Good for you for recognizing that and seeking backup. Before we get to your question, I do want to encourage you to let your sister know how her words are affecting you. Rather than point out what she's "doing wrong," you might calmly and honestly explain that while she may mean well, her commentary is painful, leaves you feeling bad about yourself... or whatever wording rings most true to you. Approach this as setting a boundary, rather than as lodging a complaint, which could cause her to become defensive and shut down. It's incredibly important for you to speak what it was that bothered you, why, and how you wish to communicate about this topic moving forward (if at all). Let her know that if you want her advice in the future, you will specifically ask. Otherwise, request that she kindly refrain from bringing up your body weight. Now onto your question… Health at Any Size? It's really important for me to disclose that while there are many experts on this topic (and while the anti-diet approach is one that is growing increasingly interesting to me as a coach), I am not a leading expert in … Continue reading "Ask a Health Coach: Can You Be Overweight and Healthy?"
