90% of eating disorders begin with a diet. 

30% of all diets end in an eating disorder. 

99% of dieters gain back all the weight and more. 

Yo-yo dieting increases your chance of high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, and early death. 

Diets are dangerous. Say no to diet culture. 

okay but we need to address how the fear-mongering around ‘obesity’ is absolutely linked to eating disorders. this all hurts fat people the most and we don’t need to put being fat in a category of all the bad things that can happen if you diet. fuck that.

I believe this, but I’d love to see a primary source.
