Along with potentially serious health problems, obesity also carries with it the burden of being the last acceptable form of discrimination in today’s society. Because of this, Obesity Action Coalition (OAC) is calling on Amazon Inc., Apple Inc., Google Inc. and the Microsoft Corporation to take the following actions:
Remove all applications perpetuating fat-shaming
Modify application review guidelines to exclude the approval of any application perpetuating weight bias, stigma or fat-shaming
Fat-shaming apps have the potential to continue the cycle of weight-based bullying in our Nation. Add your voice to removing fat-shaming apps: Apps such as, “Fatify,” “Fatbooth,” “Fat You” and others greatly perpetuate fat-shaming and weight bias in today’s society.
Children are the primary users of these types of apps, and the apps are teaching children that the disease of obesity is a funny cosmetic issue, which we know is not true.
A letter by OAC President/CEO Joe Nadglowski and OAC Chairman Ted Kyle, RPh, MBA, appeared in the Sunday New York Times! Read the full letter about why obesity is an important health issue and that fat shaming can actually make it worse: http://mobile.nytimes.com/2014/06/29/opinion/is-obesity-ok.html?_r=0
Approximately 30 percent of girls with excess weight and 24 percent of boys with excess weight report being teased by peers at school. These apps have the potential to further exacerbate weight-based bullying and fat-shaming – especially in children.

Dear ÁmateAhora friends, how disheartening to have read a recent post.
As you move forward in life you may need to change your circle of friends. Everyone around you isn’t interested in seeing you improve.
It is disheartening to perceive disengagement, ill will, or indifference of your success within your circle of friends. I agree whether rivalry or not; intuitive or a fact. Being an advocate for collaboration vs competition. Works! Being in communication and servicing each other for a greater good moves you and your circle of friends forward, collectively. While working in silos are prevalent in a world of “a me and me alone” attitude, handling win-lose negotiations, ineffective communication, stagnating lead talent, taking high risks, and compromising your team. All may end in long term headaches and a depleting life.
Success comes with grace and ease when joining forces with the best while consistently nurturing each other by acknowledging your friends, fellow colleagues, team mates, partners grand contribution! Moving each other collectively. I agree let us choose to infinitely expand our circle of explosively brilliant and generous friends.
Cheers ÁmateAhora friends! Here’s to a life of grace and ease!
