There may be size-discrimination at a job that makes prospects for promotion seem dim without weight loss. This can lead to problems with body-image. Comments, gossip and whispering about a persons weight will make them feel worthless and seeking acceptance. This can make the person feel depressed and alone, and can lead to body-image and weight issues. Sexually harassment on the job will lead its victims to self-worthless feelings, confusion, feelings of inadequacy, and powerlessness.
Victims often blame themselves.
