Fat-Affirming Dietician w/ PhD in Body Positive Medicine 🔬 Author of “Snacks Over Scales” and “Health with Every Happy Meal” 📚 Feminist/Ally 🏳️🌈 She/Her 💕
I stopped by for a light dinner on my way home from work and half the people in here aren’t even wearing masks. Some people just don’t care about protecting their health. Smh 😷
I’m a POS and I’m proud!
As a proud Person of Size, I will never stop standing up to all the fat phobia on this app, no matter how much I want to sit down.
To all the fat phobes who keep asking if I’m a “satire” account, the answer is no. I’m way too busy trying to end fat phobia, which is a hefty task on its own, so also running a satire account would be biting off much more than I can chew.

Maybe you should stop taking about politics and start talking about the elephant in the room: Fatphobia. That’s what I’m doing, and my plus-sided audience keeps growing larger everyday.
I’m glad to see so many plus-sized people are inspired by my fat activism here on Twitter. Becoming a fat was a big step on my goal towards ending fat phobia, and like most big steps, it was a step I did not take lightly.
The man taking my order at Arby’s just told me I look hot. When I asked to speak to his manager (because I’m currently on a sex strike and I don’t appreciate being hit on) he handed me some napkins because apparently I was sweating.
I’m busy fighting against systemic fat phobia, not running a “parody” account. I don’t have time to run a parody account. I already have enough on my plate.
Men being “stronger” is a myth. I once asked my boyfriend in college to give me a piggy back ride, and he couldn’t even do it because I was too “heavy” for him. His fragile ego was so crushed he broke up with me the next day.
It’s been 3 months since I started my sex strike to end fatphobia and I’ve realized I don’t need to chase a man to be happy unless he’s driving the ice cream truck.
It’s ok to be Fat.
It’s ok to be Ample.
It’s ok to be Thick.
It’s ok to be Stout.
It’s ok to be Obese.
We love and accept everyone in the FATSO community and we’ll always embrace you with wide open arms.
Biscuit used to have a lot of health problems before I switched her to a fat-affirming veterinarian. Now she gets a clean bill of health and a cookie every visit. That’s the power of body positive medicine.
I’m having a little pasta and red wine alone with myself tonight. Sometimes it’s fun to pretend I’m on a date, but then I remember I’m still on a sex strike, so I better not get too tipsy and have sex with anyone
Men being “stronger” is a myth. Back in college I asked my boyfriend to give me a piggy back ride and he couldn’t even do it because I was too “heavy” for him. His fragile ego felt so crushed he broke up with me the next day.
A lot of bad things happened on Jeffrey Epstein’s Island, but the worst thing has to be the blatant fatphobia plus-sized victims faced by not even being allowed on the island.
Doctors have long known that we must stop gendering babies at birth because it causes irreparable harm later in life, yet they refuse to acknowledge the harm caused by weighing babies at birth. A lifetime of internalized fatphobia starts in the delivery room.
I’ll never forget the first time a boy rejected me because he said he’s not a “chubby chaser”. That was the first time I ever heard that phrase which to this day I still don’t understand because I don’t even like to run.
As a plus-sized woman, dealing with all the fatphobia on this app is a constant struggle. Sometimes I feel so weighed down by all the negativity, I have trouble lifting myself out of bed in the morning.
After another long day standing up to the fatphobes in my mentions, I figured I deserved light snack on my way home from work. I can’t wait to finally relax and kick my feet up until dinner.
I think I drank too much wine because I just drunk dialed Ryan from work. He must of heard about my sex strike though because when I told him it was a booty call, he hung up immediately. It’s good to know he respects my strike.
If I had a cookie for every time someone was fat phobic towards me, I’d have diabetes. Which just goes to show how damaging fat phobia can be to your health.
I’m so tired of white men chuckling at my fat activism and writing it off as “satire”. This guy wouldn’t know good satire if it hit him in his Dilbert looking face
@ScottAdamsSays
Fatphobic doctors say eating too much food is bad for your health, but the data says otherwise. Studies have shown that people who eat “too much” food almost always outlive people who don’t eat any food at all.
Not having sex was easy back when no one wanted to have sex with me, but now that no one is ALLOWED to have sex with me, it’s a lot harder for me to say no.
I’m sick and tired of all the fat phobia in the medical profession. I’m especially sick and tired of all the fatphobic “doctors” who say the reason I’m always sick and tired is because I’m “obese”.
It’s 2023 and women are still being sexually harassed in the workplace. I’m so glad I don’t work in a place like that. None of the men in my office have ever tried to sexually harass me.
My coworkers surprised me with cupcakes at the office today to celebrate my 25k new Twitter followers. What a lovely surprise! I just hope they brought enough for everyone and not just for me.
Republicans love saying “Do your own research” when it comes to vaccines, but the MOMENT a doctor says “obesity is unhealthy”... all of a sudden it’s “trust the medical experts!”
In my practice, we never use the words “thin” or “skinny” when referring to non plus-sized women. They are “women without size”. This more size-inclusive language helps to decenter “thinness” as a baseline metric of good health for those wishing to live a diet-divergent lifestyle
More proof systemic fat phobia is everywhere, even at our favorite restaurants. I shouldn’t need to have a 2nd table for my side items if McDonalds just had appropriate plus-sized tables for their guests. But instead they’d rather be fatphobic.
My Professor at BYU Dr. Hun Gree and University President Philip Witherspoon gave me my PhD. Perhaps you’ve heard of them because they’re two of the biggest names in the growing field of Body Positive Medicine.

Anyone posting triggering images like the one shown below will be BLOCKED.
My page is intended as a safe space for fat-affirming diet and health advice. Anyone pushing diet misinformation (propaganda) about non-fat-affirming “healthy” foods are NOT WELCOME HERE.
If fatphobic hate speech made fat people stop being fat, then racist hate speech would make black people stop being black.
NEWSFLASH: It doesn’t work like that!
Skinny women always think my medical credentials are one big joke, but where’s your PhD Mikhaila? That’s right, you don’t have one. And if you did, you’d probably lose it in that messy room your dad always tells you to clean up.
This woman claims I’m doing my advocacy wrong and I should “educate” myself on the topic of Intersectionality. I literally have a PhD in Intersectional Body Positive Medicine. I’d love to see her PhD.
After I eat my dinner, I like to kick my feet up and relax so I can think about my day as a fat activist and also what I want for dessert. I do all my best thinking after dinner, and I usually have a lot to digest on.
