Top Experts Weigh In"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you find yourself embracing the body positive movement while still longing to lose weight \u2013 and questioning if both can coexist together \u2013\u00a0you aren\u2019t alone. I\u2019ve seen this question come up in many conversations, and it\u2019s time to tackle it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the body positivity movement embraces forming positive relationships with one\u2019s body image while learning to love and embrace the skin you\u2019re in without any need to change to conform to a societal version of beauty, that\u2019s not entirely what we see depicted on social media.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Search #bodylove, #bodypositivity or something of the like, and you\u2019re bound to see a plethora of heterosexual, thin, Caucasian females in able bodies posing with a big grin and captioning how they love their perfectly imperfect bodies. If this sounds harsh, don\u2019t let me fool you; I myself may have an archived photo under that stereotype too.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, what we as a society need to recognize is that the body positivity movement didn\u2019t just happen overnight when more celebrities and influencers started embracing it. In fact, it began when the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/naafa.org\/history\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">fat rights movement<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of the late 1960s early 1970s began to emerge. The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/naafa.org\/history\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance (NAAFA)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the world\u2019s oldest organization working towards #EqualityAtEverySize regardless of one\u2019s weight or physique, began in 1969 when a man was upset with the way his \u201cfat wife was continuously treated.\u201d He, alongside numerous others, paved the way to form a movement that strives to provide a culture where \u201cfat people are free, celebrated, and liberated from every form of oppression.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Flash forward to today \u2013 while the message may have been lost amongst the sea of social media pictures, it\u2019s still very much needed.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to Cara Harbstreet, MS RD LD of <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.streetsmartnutrition.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Street Smart Nutrition<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and author of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Healthy Eating for Life: An Intuitive Eating Workbook to Stop Dieting Forever<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBody positivity<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">as it stands today is barely recognizable in comparison to its origins within the fat-positive and body liberation movements.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Given its deep history, it\u2019s important to have this perspective before thinking for yourself if one can one be body positive and still long for weight loss. And, truthfully, there\u2019s no right or wrong answer, according to experts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Harbstreet notes there is no clear-cut answer to this question. \u201cTo me, the answer is incredibly nuanced because of the way certain bodies continue to be centered and rewarded (thin, abled, youthful, predominately white, cisgender bodies) when they tout the messages of body positivity. For other people confronting weight stigma and body oppression, changing their personal physique may equate to safety, survival or higher societal status.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Echoing Harbstreet\u2019s thoughts, nationally renowned weight-loss and diabetes registered dietitian Lauren Harris-Pincus, MS, RDN, founder of <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/nutritionstarringyou.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NutritionStarringYOU.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and author of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/nutritionstarringyou.com\/protein-packed-breakfast-club\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Everything Easy Pre-Diabetes Cookbook<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, shares, \u201cNo one should be stigmatized for how they look or how much they weigh under any circumstances. But your body is your home and you need to make it a happy place to live. If that means you desire to lose weight, then you should go about it in a healthy way.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Harris-Pincus notes if you long to change your physique, your main objective should be to figure out why, and then learn how to approach your concerns in the healthiest, most sustainable way possible with the guidance of a trained healthcare professional.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Considering we live in a day and age where weight loss is a common point of concern, it\u2019s important to take note of what Harbstreet says. \u201cBody positivity can easily become \u2018toxic\u2019 when you start to think that if you don\u2019t feel 100% enamored with your body all the time, you must be doing it \u2018wrong.\u2019\u201d Instead, Harbstreet uses this point to openly discuss with her clients the realities of what it might take to change their bodies, what the risks and benefits are, and whether it aligns with their personal values.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since individualized nutrition is becoming a best practice of care (as it should; there\u2019s no one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition), it\u2019s important to work with each person and their own history to determine what is best for them, personally. Harris-Pincus shares that it\u2019s crucial to tailor plans for individuals that allow them to live their healthiest life within their limitations. \u201cI don\u2019t believe in restrictive diets that someone cannot follow long term. The scale is never the focus, and the journey to optimal health involves addressing far more than food and weight such as stress, sleep, physical activity and self-care.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we head into the new year, you can begin to be part of the solution to help destigmatize a culture that thrives off thinness while still addressing and meeting your own personal health goals.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For instance, while research is evolving in the body positivity space in regards to how social media depicts this movement, the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/abs\/pii\/S1740144521000437?via%3Dihub\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">current data shows<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that posting body-positive messages over a photo of an individual person, or demonstrating a photo with a person whose appearance diverges from the common \u201cideal\u201d referred to above is most impactful in moving the bar forward to really make waves in the body positive movement.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Harbstreet adds, \u201cOn an individual level, we can set and reinforce boundaries for healthcare and fitness settings and seek out weight-inclusive practitioners. Additionally, we can focus on creating and sustaining health-promoting behaviors \u2013 this includes habits that might look familiar such as eating for well-being and engaging in life-enhancing movement.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On a societal level, she shares, \u201cWe also need to decenter thinness, confront and combat weight stigma, and address anti-fatness as it shows up in policies, systems, and institutions. All the personal body positivity you can muster wouldn\u2019t change the fact that you would still be subjected to traumatic and stigmatizing experiences at the hands of a very fat-phobic society.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, while the answer may not be as clear as you want it to be, it\u2019s time to sit with yourself and have a very honest conversation about what your goals are. If it encompasses weight loss solely to meet a number on the scale or society\u2019s depiction of \u201chealth\u201d, that likely will not elicit change for the long haul. Instead, work with trained registered dietitians and other healthcare professionals to find the right plan that works for you and your goals. And yes, that may end up meaning you are fully comfortable in your own skin while working to meet those goals, too. Remember, they aren\u2019t mutually exclusive.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a culture where body positivity and embracing different sizes and shapes is really shining, can one be both body positive and still long to change their personal physique?
