Just to piggyback on this I'd love if folks would assume that, as a man who has been both fat and disabled for decades, I am familiar with literally everything you're going to say is the "simple" thing that would "fix" me. Nine times out of ten, I'm already doing it, and still fat. Still disabled.
For Disability Pride Month, one thing I'd love abled bodied people to figure out is how to speak to someone with chronic health issues without implying that if they themselves had the disabled person's health conditions, they would end it all. I promise you life goes on- even with health issues.

I'm including doctors front and center on this list.
Nobody who says "you're not going to get diabetes, that only happens to people who make poor choices" deserves to practice medicine.
