Fat shaming is pretty effective. It worked on me and others in my peer group. I don't like being fat and I don't like being around people who are fat. It's unhealthy and unattractive and represents, to me, a lack of control and discipline. I look at someone who can't give up Sugar the same way as someone who can't give up cocaine, as a person who needs help. Possibly in the form of an intervention.

The hard truth where sometimes our feelings _need_ to be hurt early on to save our health (despite all of this modern social acceptance of unhealthy, irresponsible people who lack the self control to put the sugar down and consume less calories daily).

How do you get fat-shaming from "peer and parental encouragement"?
