My Story…
Obesity is not a character flaw. It’s a complex, chronic disease influenced by genetics, biology, environment, and social factors—not laziness or lack of willpower. For too long, stigma has silenced meaningful conversations and blocked access to care.
I have recently learnt that a healthy lifestyle isn’t just a personal choice—it’s a community responsibility. We need environments that support nutritious food, safe movement, mental health, and inclusive healthcare. That’s why I’m proud to be part of this walk. Together, we’re making strides toward a future where obesity is treated with dignity, not judgment.
