Filmmaker Lindsey Averill shares the story behind a new documentary making waves, Fattitude The Movie. Fattitude takes a hard look at how the media portrays fat bodies and how that perpetuates fatphobia in our society. Fattitude’s co-creator is award-winning filmmaker Viri Lieberman. Lindsey and Viri have poured years of their lives into this film that is currently being screened around the world and will be released to the public in early 2019. During our interview, we also dive into the topic of motherhood as Lindsey is a new mom. From body image during pregnancy to how society views fat moms, we address some taboo topics. Hearing Lindsey share her passion and expertise is always a privilege and I hope you’ll enjoy this episode of the Plus Mommy Podcast.

Finding and foiling your fattitudes is really hard work.

Kanye, sweetheart, wow. Just WOW. Thank Mother God that Childish Gambino (aka Donald Glover) is here to remind us what a musical genius is. The Met Gala happened and the ladies had to recap it. The Makeup Minute is a Benefit kit "I pink I love you" that Paula got that is mostly PINK and adorable. Amy needs your help -- how are we keeping our makeup on, y'all? Amy gets real vulnerable during the Mental Health Minute -- because May is Mental Health Awareness Month. The Fatphobic Disaster is LulaRoe, and the Body Politics win is Fattitude the movie. The recommendations this week are DUMPLIN' and Wild Wild Country.

For this episode, I headed out to Brooklyn for the premiere of Fattitude the movie! After 2 hours of happy and somber moments, I headed home to record my thoughts. This is what I had to say!

Lindsey Averill, writer, activist, and film maker, comes on the show this week to discuss the release of her new movie, “Fattitude,” how she found intuitive eating and discovered body acceptance, the issue of weight discrimination and size bias in media and the medical community, her work in body image, the problem with mainstream body positivity, and more! PLUS, Christy answers a listener question about binge eating and navigating trigger foods in recovery. Lindsey Averill is many things - a film maker, an academic, a writer, an activist, an aspiring novelist, a sake and sushi lover, a notorious trashy television watcher, an odd beauty secret keeper, an amazing dancer... really, the list is endless. Lindsey completed her M.F.A in Writing from Emerson College and is A.B.D in the Comparative Studies Ph.D. Program at Florida Atlantic University. The focus of Lindsey’s research is feminism, fat civil rights and the representation of fat bodies in popular culture. Since 2005 Lindsey has worked as a college professor teaching women’s studies, literature and writing courses. In her spare time, Lindsey writes stuff for lots of cool media outlets, like CNN, xojane, Time.com, The Huffington Post, Alternet, Refinery29, Bustle and the up and coming women’s lifestyle magazine, Muses and Visionaries. Lindsey’s also written academic stuff where she speaks to feminism – or a lack there of in young adult novels – like Twilight and the Hunger Games. Basically, Lindsey is one of those public intellectual types, who has dedicated her life to ending the hateful relationships people have with their bodies and changing the national conversation about body image so that it focuses on effect the very real issues of bias and systemic prejudice.
