These ‘Don’t Weigh Me’ Cards Are Game-Changing for Doctors Appointments

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.sel...h-me-cards/amp

For many people, regardless of size, stepping on the scale at the doctor’s office can be a triggering, harmful experience. “Please don’t weigh me” cards may offer a solution.

The cards, which are gaining a ton of attention online, were created by More-love.org, an online resource created to help parents raise “kids who are free from body hate, disordered eating, and eating disorders.” They’re a subtle way to send a strong message to medical staff: “Please don’t weigh me unless it’s (really) medically necessary. If you really need my weight, please tell me why so that I can give you my informed consent,” the cards read.

Being weighed, particularly in front of someone else, is rarely a pleasant experience thanks to a culture of relentless weight stigma and unrealistic body expectations. But beyond being uncomfortable, it can also be harmful, particularly for those dealing with disordered eating, eating disorders, and body image issues. “Because we live in a fatphobic society, being weighed and talking about weight causes feelings of stress and shame,” More-love.org reads. “Many people feel anxiety about seeing the doctor, and will avoid going to the doctor in order to avoid the scale.”


Is this how far we have fallen as a society?

Fatphobic? No, we all don't want to die before we've lived a long, happy life. Being a fattie makes both of those a rarity.
Yeah Buddyyy! Light weight! Light weight baby!!!!

And when they catch the Cov, it won't be the obesity that killed them, but the Rona? According to our leftist posters?

Can’t imagine living a life where someone tries to speak with me and I have to hand them a business card with my feelings instead of just having a conversation with someone.

This is a great idea. When issued they should send the info to your health insurance company so they can appropriately adjust your rates.

Shouldn't their rates be higher for being obese? Or does that only apply to the unvaccinated?

Ok wait, so you know you have a problem, but rather than be reminded of the problem in a setting where its their job to remind you of the problem, you dont want to be reminded of the problem?

recently went to the doctors and them weighing me made the nurse notice I was down 17 lbs since my last visit so that was nice to see, they only weigh in Kg guessing because they dont wanna ruin anyone's day

softies in this world hate the reality of being overweight

A doctor telling me I was a fat little high blood pressured kunt at 19 and needed to take better care of myself is a reason I'm posting this today.

I bet the same people who don’t want their weight checked, are the same people who don’t want their kids weight checked so they aren’t held accountable and look like terrible parents for raising little butterballs.

Lol at caring if somebody sees the number on the scale, when everybody already knows you look like chit
Entire NYPD should go on strike. You'll see then how quickly the mayor changes his tone.
