<p>Regular listeners will know this is not a podcast where we glamorise weight loss stories or before-and-after pictures. As someone with a long history of eating disorders, I’ve spent years rejecting the idea that our worth lives and dies on the bathroom scales. But in this episode, I sit down with Ruth Corden to talk about what it means when healing your relationship with your body does involve losing weight – and how to do that without feeding fatphobic bullsh*t. Ruth talks honestly about living in a fat body, food addiction, “food noise”, and starting semaglutide – not as a vanity project, but as a lifeline for her health and sanity. We get into thin privilege, weaponised body positivity, fertility grief, shame in the GP’s office, and how lifting heavy weights helped her finally feel at home in her skin. It’s not a weight loss story. It’s a story about finally inhabiting the body you live in.</p><br><p>WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU</p><p>Got something to share?
