This isn’t medical advice — always talk to your doctor before making any health decisions.

In this holiday special, we explore obesity as a chronic disease and how GLP-1 medications are changing treatment, access, and outcomes. Our expert guest, Dr Robyn Pashby, breaks down the differences between GLP-1 therapy and bariatric surgery, explains types of disordered eating and emotional eating, and discusses the mental and social adjustments that often come with significant weight loss.

We also address weight bias in medicine, body image after weight change, and how food-centered holidays can impact those who are actively losing weight or maintaining on a GLP-1. This episode offers practical coping strategies, compassionate insight, and evidence-based guidance for navigating food, emotions, and health during the holidays.
