“…The reasons for such findings are not clear, but they may be related to gender issues, excessive preoccupation with body shape, and adherence to weight-loss diets, all frequent experiences in women 52 . Historically, women were associated with consuming little food, attributed to the fact that food was the only terrain considered "legitimately female", besides the existence of canons for the female body and beauty standards; even in historical times when such standards were associated with more curvaceous bodies, they placed greater value on the body's proportions and not on excessive fat 53 . According to Menucci et al 54 , the feeling of inappropriateness, inadequacy, and individual guilt vis-à-vis ideals of beauty and the unattainable body images propagated by the mass media constitute a strategy of domination and diminishment through the devaluation of bodies, of which women are the greatest victims.…”

Obesity is associated with psychosocial problems like stigma, discrimination, and bias. Studies have found that nutritionists and nutrition students display negative attitudes and biases toward obese individuals. This study examined the existence of nutrition students' bias toward obese individuals. The students answered questionnaires by completing on-line forms with demographic data and self-reported weight and height and were assigned to one of four randomly selected hypothetical cases of patients referred to a nutritionist after receiving a diagnosis of lactose intolerance (normal weight man; normal weight woman; obese man; and obese woman). Except for weight, body mass index (BMI), and daily energy intake, all information on diet, habits, and health conditions were identical for profiles of the same sex. The questionnaire included questions on the indication of procedures and approaches during the consultation, consultation time, counseling strategies, dietary and health evaluation, and students' affective and behavioral reactions. Three hundred and thirty-five students participated, mostly women, with mean BMI of 23kg/m². Patient's weight influenced consultation time and students' perceptions and treatment approaches and strategies. The study revealed biases and negative attitudes mainly involving the students' perceptions and reactions to obese patients, and obese women generally received the worse evaluations.

The socially lived subjective experience and the body image developed in early childhood are aspects that contribute to the perception of one's own body. The act of eating goes beyond its historical and cultural meaning and passes through unconscious processes. The aim was to investigate the meaning of eating and the body perception of 27 women who were interested in participating of the Na Medida multidisciplinary program, residents of the north of Paraná State (Brazil). A semi-structured questionnaire was used for data collection, which was analyzed from the thematic-categorical content using the reference of psychoanalysis, considering the social context. The results demonstrated that eating, in addition to meaning the preservation of the species, is associated with the unconscious processes that seek satisfaction. The women felt dissatisfi ed with their own bodies and attempted to overcome the fault by investing in the body, (re)signifying it and trying to create an idealized image under the gaze of the Other.Keywords: Body image, perception, eating, psychoanalysis.
