In response to the AMA announcement that they recommend classifying obesity as a “disease” - People are taking to Twitter and the #IAmNotADisease tag to tell their stories and refute the bullshit.
There is also a petition against the decision.
“The vote of the A.M.A. House of Delegates went against the conclusions of the association’s Council on Science and Public Health, which had studied the issue over the last year. The council said that obesity should not be considered a disease mainly because the measure usually used to define obesity, the body mass index, is simplistic and flawed.”
“Without a single, clear, authoritative, and widely accepted definition of disease, it is difficult to determine conclusively whether or not obesity is a medical disease state,” the council told the AMA’s policy-making House of Delegates. “Similarly, a sensitive and clinically practical diagnostic indicator of obesity remains elusive.”
So let’s get this straight - the AMA council on Science and Public Health is AGAINST the classification of obesity as a “disease” (hey, look! proof! warning for headless fatties!) - but you know, fuck that, BECAUSE OF REASONS THAT HAVE EVERYTHING TO DO WITH MONEY AND CORRUPTION THAT STARTS IN AMERICAN DOCTORS OFFICES.
In case you didn’t know - along with this announcement comes the release of two new diet products, being pushed in conjunction with the media push surrounding the AMA’s “opinion”.
“Two new obesity drugs — Qsymia from Vivus, and Belviq from Arena Pharmaceuticals and Eisai — have entered the market in the last year. Qsymia has not sold well for a variety of reasons, including poor reimbursement and distribution restrictions imposed because of concerns that the drug can cause birth defects. Those restrictions are now being relaxed. Belviq went on sale only about a week ago, so it is too early to tell how it is doing.”
WLS and diet products are big business and pharmaceutical companies looking to MAKE MONEY - which the AMA is feeding directly into, and has been for a long time.
The pressure has been turned up. The fatty political movements will feel the blow, as will the nature of our society, which is fragile enough as it is when we are in a state of feeling constant shame about our bodies and health.
But fuck all if you think we’re about to be silent about it.

The AMA is being really, spectacularly shitty, and has decided now that obesity is a disease. I’m crying about it.
I’m not crying because some big kid on the playground told me I’m fat. I’m not crying because this “disease” makes me look fat. I’m crying because my body is not a disease. I am not a disease. I am a different shape and size. That’s it. And I always have been, even after an elective, invasive, totally medically unnecessary surgery to make my stomach smaller. People applauding the decision are thrilled that more diet pills (you know those things, generally terrible for you) can be developed and flood the market. They rejoice in the fact that insurance will cover things like my surgery and even higher risk surgeries similar to mine.
Never mind that I dieted all through my teens and I’ve only dropped down to a size 12/14 since my surgery. I did everything that the medical community will now acknowledge as good and right in order to “keep my disease from spreading,” but when it comes down to the good, old, BMI I’m still diseased.
How many more fat people will have to suffer the way that I suffered for so many years now? What will my doctors tell me? What new, extreme measures will be used in order to make our bodies more palatable for your consumption? And what about those of us who will never not be obese? What then?
I’m not crying because my feelings are hurt. I’m crying because I am very, very scared and very, very angry that the AMA wants me to be very, very thin.
