Welcome to the Body Peace Podcast! In this episode, we dive deep into the complicated world of GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Mounjaro. We look closely at what it means to make choices about our bodies with our eyes wide open. We talk about the intense pressure from weight stigma and the cultural belief that smaller bodies are better. We also unpack the promise of erasing "food noise" and look at the real risks of weight cycling when stopping these drugs. Our goal is to support body autonomy and help us step off the battlefield of fixing or controlling ourselves. Whether we choose to explore these medications or stay far away, we deserve a supportive space to navigate our relationship with food and our bodies without any shame.Key TakeawaysWe honor body autonomy by making healthcare choices with our eyes wide open.Weight cycling causes more physical health risks than remaining in a larger body.Food noise is actually important information from our body that we should listen to closely.Starting weight loss medications at a young age can easily trigger lifelong disordered eating habits.We must release shame and choose supportive communities that nurture our whole wellness.Resourcessizeinclusivemedicine.org (GLP-1 Informed Consent Form) https://sizeinclusivemedicine.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/MSSI-GLP1-Informed-Consent-1-1.pdfBody Peace Podcast Episode with Dr. AsherConnect with Nina and JennieNina Manolson M.A. Body-Peace® Founder & CoachStay connected & pick up your FREE Practicing Body-Peace Journal:⁠⁠ https://ninamanolson.com/practicingbodypeace/⁠⁠Contact: [email protected]:⁠ ⁠ https://www.instagram.com/bodypeacepodcast⁠Jennie Kramer LCSW-R,CEDSSubscribe to Jennie’s Newsletter & a complimentary 15min phone consult:⁠⁠ https://mbhany.com/connect-with-jennie/⁠⁠Contact: [email protected]
