| 1626687442609643520 | 🧵Thread on autoimmune diseases, the weight gain associated with it, and how society conflates women's worth with their appearance via @morganstephensa. https://t.co/CkuEfWVVc2 | 11 |
| 1626728357827076097 | @morganstephensa Also, complimenting sudden weight loss from chronic illness is not good either. | 7 |
| 1627085066261389313 | @danimarietaylor @morganstephensa Here's hoping! In support of that possibility, I'll share a few resources for learning and invite others to do the same. This first book opened my world back in the day: https://t.co/gJNzTGY404 | 2 |
| 1627046765492080640 | @morganstephensa Hello 👋 Fat and chronically ill for my whole adult life. Neither inherent aspect of my embodied self is "icky". K? K. | 2 |
| 1625694942310924288 | @morganstephensa The symptoms you describe sound like my husband's - the head pressure, pain, and fog. I can't decide what's better. To hear a result of grey matter loss, legitimizing his experience, or no loss, keeping some level of hope alive that long COVID hasn't led to irreparable damage. | 2 |
| 1625512091992965123 | @morganstephensa PreC19 #MECFS diagnosed with major neurocognitive disorder. Normal MRI, but conclusive neuropsych, and conclusive qEEG. If you need a neuropsych, who understands post viral, I can recommend. QEEG in Chicago also developed specifically for ME. It’s scary, I’m sorry. | 2 |
| 1627012952107921408 | @morganstephensa I've tried several brands. Most are trash. This one is good. https://t.co/Qrij64mSA2 | 2 |
| 1627056568683622401 | @morganstephensa Thank you for clarifying. I appreciate what you were reaching towards. That said, fat activists have laid down much clearer linguistic paths toward that goal over the last half-century or so. Why not use terms like fatmisia, fatphobia, & similar to talk about these issues? | 1 |
| 1625491186067849218 | @morganstephensa Pharmacy just texted me that they can't refill my blood pressure medication because of supply problems. A generic calcium channel blocker, made in India, probably using Chinese ingredients. | 1 |

| 1626874587496730625 | @morganstephensa Oh yes. Thank you. I don’t have a functioning thyroid from Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, take medication, work out daily, eat Keto and work so hard just to stall the constant upward creep of weight but not see much progress. I just try to stay patient with my body. | 71 |
| 1626942435031908352 | @PatientPersists @morganstephensa It’s just not true. There’s no wiring. You can’t just make up science. Every culture has different beauty standards | 58 |
| 1627093050903367682 | @morganstephensa Fat people are not gross, but this framing certainly is! Weight gain is incredibly common with basic lifestyle changes like pregnancy, aging, and illness, as well as medication changes, and it'd be nice if y'all could discuss that perfectly normal experience without fatphobia. | 48 |
| 1627035585327276033 | @morganstephensa Can fat people not just exist without needing a backstory? | 43 |
| 1627056568683622401 | @morganstephensa Thank you for clarifying. I appreciate what you were reaching towards.

| 1625286500060475392 | @morganstephensa @morgfair When you peel away the layers and you don’t have to go deep, one realizes quickly we’re really a third world country just pretending we’re not. | 39 |
| 1627004499544969217 | @morganstephensa Not to mention then it is harder to receive medical care because symptoms are blamed on our weight. Thank you for talking about this, it’s harmful to everyone to make assumptions about anyone’s weight. | 36 |
| 1626962886085218306 | @morganstephensa Yeap. I had a doc tell me lose weight when I was working out 80ish minute 5 days a week and a size 8 instead of wanting to treat my sleep apnea. Made him give a cpap machine. Then I lost weight. Wonder why… (sarcasm, it’s bc sleep affects hormones which affect weight) | 32 |
