Perhaps not the easiest, but I would say by far most effective way is by unlearning the toxic fatphobic misogynistic ideas we've all been socialised to have about "femininity" and the kinds of it we're meant to aspire to and idealise (and those we're not), and instead embracing and nurturing your curvy femboy self (and/or others).
Oh, look, another fatphobic and wilfully ignorant concern troll..
Also not a fucking bro.
Tbh the article you linked has one rather stupid take:
There haven't quite been any real efforts for decades, especially not in the USA. Banning ads for sweets and implementing a sugar tax should be very effective at reducing sugar intake, linked to obesity and those policies only started being implemented in recent years.
It's incredibly difficult to come by any research about those efforts because there's a multi-billion dollar lobby of advertisers and food manufacturers strongly opposed to this and any other policy attempting to reduce consumption.
No, being a fatphobic and wilfully ignorant concern troll is what's actually not helpful.
And if it isn't curvy and literally all condensed into the stomach for some godforsaken reason?
