Oprah: Shame, Blame & the Weight-Loss Selling Game*


Listen Later

“I took on the shame that the world gave to me.” - Oprah

 

This was such a powerful start to what we hoped would be, at the very least, a balanced conversation surrounding our beloved fat community and the current prescription weight-loss craze. Unfortunately, we were left disappointed, angry, and, honestly, sad. Join us this week as we dive into this hour-long special meant to alleviate the pain that diet culture and the weight-loss industry has inflicted upon us for the majority of our lives, only to find out that the message is still very much the same. This is a sensitive topic and an all-around sensitive conversation, and we hope you’ll take care of you and your mental wellbeing as we navigate these very murky waters together. ♥️

*Not the actual title of the special, but it kinda feels like it should’ve been. 🤷🏻‍♀️
