87. What is Obesity? (RETHINKING OBESITY Part 1 of 5)


Listen Later

It’s time to re-think obesity.

Your brain is designed to defend the body against weight loss. Obesity isn’t a character flaw. It isn’t a lifestyle choice. Obesity is a real medical condition. 

It’s time to change the conversation around obesity and lift the shame and stigma.

That’s why I’m launching a new series called RETHINKING OBESITY. Every Monday for the month of October, I’m going to talk about Obesity from a medical angle. We’ll cover what it is, how to talk to your doctor, investigations that your doctor may carry out, the pillars of treatment, and what anti-obesity medications are available.

In week one of the series, I’ll be sharing the definition of obesity as a medical disease, the risk factors, methods of measuring it, and stay tuned for week 4 where we will reveal the right treatments.

P.S. I want to share with you an exciting free event I have coming up, it’s called Mindset & Obesity Medicine for Sustained Weight Loss. I’m hosting this live virtual zoom event on October 4th at 7:30pm EST. 

I’m going to answer all your questions about the popular weight loss drugs on the market, focusing on the anti-obesity medications that are available in Canada, and how they can be used as a tool in a comprehensive weight management plan.

It's totally free, see you there! Register HERE.
