Just wrapped up the Pathways to Action: Global Obesity Implementation Forum in Montréal.
Grateful to be in a room with people who are not just talking about obesity care, but actively pushing change forward.
A good reminder that the work we do is part of something much bigger.

This is so true and together we can change people's knowledge about Obesity care @ICPObesity #Addressingobesitytogether #WOD2026 #Worldobesityday
Overweight and obesity have reached epidemic proportions in the WHO European Region, affecting almost 60% of adults.
To make a difference this #WorldObesityDay, we need to have conversations to change outdated perspectives, correct misconceptions & end stigma.

Fantastic energy at our clinical intervention planning yesterday. A wide range of clinical disciplines came together in Letterkenny to discuss the #PEACETIME clinical intervention and its integration within the HSE Integrated Healthcare area in Donegal. #integratedcare
We have 50 registered already for our Stigma Awareness evening for #WorldObesityDay2026
Co-hosting with @ASOIreland with the support of @ECPObesity and @ObesityDayEU we look forward to #AddressingObesityTogether
If you work in Dublin or nearby, and have patients or people with lived experience who would like to join us, please share the details with them.
Look back, but don't stare.
Last year may have been a great one, or maybe not.
A new year is now beginning and whatever it holds, we will be here to support each other and advocate to help improve the lives for people living with obesity.

Kao predsjednica nove neformalne skupine MEPs for Action on Obesity, zajedno s kolegama u Europskom parlamentu pokrećem inicijativu s ciljem podizanja svijesti o pretilosti i poticanja snažnije europske akcije za prevenciju i zdraviji život svih građana.

Great to meet people we only usually see on zoom during the year, and to meet new people.
Looking forward to the next 2 days.

Are we willing to accept this: Women are less likely to receive guideline-directed medical care.
@DrMarthaGulati gives #GHHUnite a stirring keynote.
Men, children, society, and yes, women, will benefit from closing sex-based gaps in health research and care.
ICPO retweeted
At #GHHUnite, Martha Gulati talks about the cost of silence, where women’s heart issues are not discussed in the same way as men’s.
She explains that nearly 450,000 US women die from cardiovascular disease each year, 10 times more than breast cancer.
