Freedom from Emotional Eating, Food & Weight Obsession

Fat Shaming for Sport & Views

As yet another mean-spirited fat shaming video (no doubt posted to get the vlogger attention) appears on YouTube, I found myself looking for uplifting articles and videos to help counter the hatred and cleanse my mind from such ignorance.  (I refuse to share links to videos containing poisonous drivel that spews every erroneous stereotype you’ve ever heard about people of size).

But it is with great pleasure that I share this YouTube video that was posted a few weeks ago and already has over 3 MILLION views. It brought me to tears! It’s an example of the creativity and good that’s happening to counter body stigma and hate. (As of ths writing, the fat shaming video only has 147,000 views–YES! That says something!)

WATCH THIS VIDEO INSTEAD!

Btw, the fat shaming vlogger disabled the comments below her video. Interesting! I’m guessing that’s because she didn’t like what people were saying about her and her stigma-filled rant!

About Ellen Shuman

Ellen on the phone

I have worked in the Wellness Field for 30 years. I created an Emotional Eating & Binge Eating Disorder Recovery Program way before most people knew BED was an eating disorder, NOT a “willpower” issue. Personally, I suffered for years before finding answers and the help I needed and deserved! I became a Coach in 1997 to help others who were still suffering as I had. I love being a Coach!
