Oprah Winfrey

Carolyn, tell us your story and your question.

Absolutely.

Very good title.

I see it works for everyone.

Yes.

I think the most important thing for everyone to know who suffers from obesity, and it was always a hard word for me to even use because it's been so stigmatized that we didn't even want to use the word obesity or obese to describe ourselves.

But anybody who suffered from it, I think the most important thing to understand, and particularly this book that you've written, enough is that it's not your fault.

That's right.

It's not your fault.

I heard another doctor recently in Australia say that genes load the gun and the environment pulls the trigger.

Yes.

And I got, you get that, right?

Genes load the gun and the environment pulls the trigger.

Yes.

And depending on how your genes are loaded into the gun that is you and the environment that you're in, you get the body that you have.

Yeah.

And so I think to actually understand that, that was Dr. George Arrigas who says that.

After this quick break, we'll hear from one of my family members, Stedman's nephew, Julius Graham, about how taking a GLP-1 medication truly saved his life.

I welcome you back for more of my conversation with Dr. Anya about the revolutionary GLP-1 medications that have changed the game on obesity and the struggle to lose excess weight.

So I want you all to meet now Julius Graham.
