## Resource

In today’s episode of Bite Back with Abbey Sharp, I break down the viral Jubilee Surrounded debate featuring Jillian Michaels and body positivity activists. After unexpectedly being pulled into the controversy myself, I unpack the key arguments from both sides—the valid points, the misinformation, and the broader conversation around weight stigma, health, and the body positivity movement—along with addressing the false claims made about me directly.
