Mary Lambert Instagram – IT’S HERE. After about 200 hours of inputting data, cold calling, scouring every thread I could find, and all of your recommendations, the Weight Neutral Leads List is live. Link in bio!
Massive, massive thank you to @plusmommy @miaomalley @fatpositivefertility @yrfatfriend @barehlth @torystrokernutrition @feelgooddietitian — NONE of this would be possible without their participation, generosity, community sourcing, and labor. Please follow & support them!!!
This is not a Health At Every Size list, a fat friendly list, or even a true weight neutral provider list. It is a list of providers who didn’t fat shame or did not mention weight loss to one person, who may not even be read as fat. So please take these leads with a grain of salt; follow the folks I mentioned above who offer resources for medical advocacy, check out @ragenchastain’s HAES info, or @thefatdoctoruk’s project @noweighcampaign to guide you as you navigate these leads.
Furthermore, this resource does not address other forms of discrimination. A provider who is cool with not talking about weight loss can still be racist or transphobic or xenophobic. Healthcare is a capitalist, racist, and fatphobic institution that must be radically transformed if it ever wants to be the bastion of “health” it portends to be.
Healthcare for only white, thin, straight, and cis bodies is not healthcare; it’s violence.
And to providers: the need & demand for these crowdsourced documents should serve as wake-up call that weight-centric care is harming your patients.
Notes: If you would like to add someone or are a weight neutral practitioner yourself, there is a link to a google form on the spreadsheet. I cross check and verify anyone submitted and maintain this spreadsheet by myself, so I appreciate your patience if the name you submit doesn’t show up right away!
Also make sure you take a look at all the pages! The second page is full of OBGYNs, endocrinologists, and RDs, and the third page has some international folks to check out if you are abroad! | Posted on 10/Jun/2022 04:41:04
