Rise From Within, with Terri Pugh

Film and tv characters we were told were fat


Listen Later

I've been watching many TV shows lately, and it got me thinking about how body sizes are portrayed in movies and their impact on us. It's a mixed bag - some films have positive representations, but unfortunately, many negative stereotypes. 

Have you seen Monica from Friends or Fat Amy from Pitch Perfect? How about Miss Piggy from The Muppets or Ray from My Mad Fat Diary? 

Let's chat about how these characters are portrayed, how media can affect how we view our bodies, and how we can shift our perspective to embrace body positivity. I'm talking about:

  •  Fashion Industry
  • Intuitive Eating
  • Fat Characters In TV And Film
  • Weight Loss
  • Character
  • Stereotyping  
  • Weight Stigma
  • Body Positivity  
  • Weight Stigma  
  • Body Acceptance  
  • Diet Culture  
  •  Beauty Standards 
  • Health At Every Size
