Abstract
The study's purpose was to characterize weight stigma in everyday life and differences between reporters and non-reporters of weight stigma. Out of 127 participants, 79 reported at least one weight stigmatizing event. Non-reporters had lower weight self-stigma. This betters understanding of weight stigma in daily life and resilience to it.
