What a fantastically written post! I have been a yo-yo dieter my entire life, each new heavily restricted diet fueled by an acute episode of extreme self-hatred.
This post is the perfect response to those who believe that fat shaming (themselves or others) is justifiable because to be anything but cruel is enabling….when in fact, it actually makes the problem much worse.
I am excited to have just discovered your blig and look forward to following it.

Amber, you have an incredible ability to analyse and synthesise profound ideas and communicate them to others.

I have been learning and growing in self-compassion thanks to therapy and also, to large degree, your own work here and at ETF. I appreciate your steady challenges. Thank you as always.

I must have missed the part where the author asked for opinions on her body from random people on the internet….

Yes! I absolutely love how you called out that “self acceptance translates to complacency in some people’s minds,” this was something that really rocked my world when I finally realized it wasn’t true!

I wrote a post about it a while back too, http://www.theemilyjean.com/it-is-what-it-is/

Thank you so much speaking up about this (as always), and I’m glad you can come at it from such a sound, scientific background. I know that really helps some people feel more confident in the concept too. I’ll be hanging on to this post to share with my coaching clients! Thank you Amber!!
