Got someone in your life who isn’t quite on board with being pro-fat acceptance and anti-diet, and you don’t know how to respond when they say things like, “But fat people have heart attacks and die younger! What about diabetes! Their KNEEESSSS!?” I’m coming at you with some super powerful studies and real-life science to break this down even further. There are gonna be a few things in this episode that are going to be really surprising and help you feel more confident in the decision to start this body acceptance journey. Trigger Warning: I am going to be citing studies that use the O words. I will also be talking about specific weight and height ratios closer to the end of the episode.
