We have added the following text from this paper in the first paragraph of the discussion as it seems to fit best with our results: Such entrenched weight biases, persistent in the media, may lead to internalised or self-stigma among individuals with overweight and obesity that persist even after weight loss. A recent study [insert numbered citation] performed a semantic evaluation of body shapes in obesity surgery patients and overweight/obesity controls and found that both groups were more willing to accept positive adjectives as a match when BMI was low and negative adjectives as a match when BMI was high.
This study deals with question that needs important discussion for obesity-related public health policy development.
