“Recover—But Not Too Much”: Experiences of Weight‐Centric Care and Weight Stigma in Higher Levels of Care for Eating Disorders
Results suggest that systemic (e.g., insurance, policies) and interpersonal (e.g., providers, peers) weight stigma may negatively impact patient care. Patients may benefit from advocacy with insurance companies, legislative protections, strengthened nutritional rehabilitation and weight restoration, weight-inclusive therapies, and interventions that address weight stigma in HLOC milieus.
