Thrilled to represent Obesity Matters in the preparatory discussions for World Obesity Day on March 4th. This year’s theme, « Let’s Talk About Obesity and_____ » is incredibly relevant. Considering the myriad ways obesity is connected to mental health, diabetes, CVD, sleep disorders, nutrition, physical activity, policy, and especially its impact on youth, it’s crucial we initiate and broaden this important dialogue.

It was inspiring to witness global representation, with participants driven by a mission to shift the narrative and make a tangible difference in the lives of those living with this chronic condition.

As World Obesity Day approaches, let’s unite in our efforts to understand, empathize, and support those impacted by obesity. Together, we can break down barriers and bring about positive change.

Today held its first advisory board meeting of 2024. The discussions were vibrant and insightful, especially on the topic of access to treatment. Having advocates with lived experiences at the table brought unique and valuable perspectives, differentiating from traditional views.

This is what ignites our passion at OM - bringing patient voices to the forefront and challenging conventional norms. Their contributions are essential in shaping our direction and future projects. Stay tuned for exciting initiatives and events on the horizon! 🚀

I’m immensely grateful for our incredible team of advisors and directors, whose strategic guidance is invaluable. 💪
