And I agree.But here’s the uncomfortable truth: women’s bodies are commented on, every single day. So what happens when weight loss is publicly praised, medicalized, and celebrated especially when it’s achieved through GLP-1 medications used solely for aesthetic weight loss? In this episode, I unpack why I think it is worth critically examining GLP-1 use when there’s no medical indication & why silence doesn’t actually protect women. We discuss: Whether thinner is automatically assumed to be healthier If people understand what it takes to maintain weight below set point The metabolic and hormonal consequences of chronic underfueling Why weight loss praise reinforces harm—especially for women in larger bodies And whether true body respect means asking harder questions, not fewer This is not about shame.It’s about informed consent, long-term health, and refusing the idea that thinness equals virtue.
