Fat Panic with Shirley & K

We're back after a little break where we both felt extra bad for being fat.  We talk about it on the pod and found a way to have a little ray of hope by making a promise to each other involving rope and jazz hands.  As you do.

We're back. This week's episode addresses a variety of topics including the day that Krispy Kreme caused a vaccination fat panic on Twitter, what Shirls learned from an intuitive eating workshop (spoiler alert: it's just eating, man) and hungry babies who have the audacity to be hungry.  

Here's the title of the workbook Shirls mentioned-- it's a keeper!     

The Intuitive Eating Workbook: Ten Principles for Nourishing a Healthy Relationship with Food (A New Harbinger Self-Help Workbook)

Here is Part II, dear listener.  

This one comes in two parts, because even though Shirley and K are brilliant women, editing is not a strong suit.  In this week's episode, topics include fat panic in child protection and medicine (a running theme) and the dreaded "shopping while fat."  We get a kick out of ourselves-- join us for some laughter and a healthy dose of aneurysm-inducing content.

We're back for Episode 4.  This one comes in two parts, because even though Shirley and K are brilliant women, editing is not a strong suit.  In this week's episode, topics include fat panic in child protection and medicine (a running theme) and the dreaded "shopping while fat."  We get a kick out of ourselves-- join us for some laughter and a healthy dose of aneurysm-inducing content.

Welcome to Episode 3, Scales of Shame & Other Tales of Horror from the Doctor's Office.  In this week's episode, topics include: COVID vaccination protocols and Facebook shenanigans, seeing the doctor while fat, colonoscopy nightmares, and a great Top 3 list for medical professionals.  Bring your pearls, you may need to clutch them when Shirley and K both drop F bombs.

Well, lads-- we are back for Episode 2.  This episode's topics include how we feel about social media weight loss journeys, coming out of anesthesia, cruel Excel sheets, and our hilarious Baywatch & fat shaming moment on the beach. Language warning: Both K and Shirley (but mostly K) drop some salty language.  

Meet Shirley and K, two women who are just trying not to hate every inch of their fat bodies.  Shirley and K are long time friends living thousands of miles from each other who are forever brought together because it's a nightmare being fat. Listen as Shirley and K have a stream of consciousness conversation about what it's like for them to be fat in a world that seems intent on shaming them. This episode's topics include being fat on public transportation, learning to walk as a metaphor for kindness, stripping down to your vests & knickers, Shirley's son's resemblance to the Beatles and possibly the Jonas brothers, and so much more.  Full disclosure: K drops a couple of F bombs.
