Body Love Binge Solo Episode - But What About People in Very Large Bodies?
In this powerful solo episode, I tackle the question that stops so many people from embracing unrestricted eating: "But what about people in very large bodies?" I address the fear, the stigma, the medical bias, and the truth about health at every size. This episode is essential for anyone who's terrified of weight gain, anyone living in a larger body, and anyone who's been told they're "too fat" to eat freely.
Key Quotes from the Episode:
💬 "Your body knows what it's doing. It's not fucking you over on purpose. It's not making you gain weight just to piss you off."
💬 "Health is not a number on the scale. Health is having energy to do things you love, managing stress, moving joyfully, and living without constant food obsession."
💬 "Your body is not the problem. The system that taught you to hate it is the problem."
💬 "You cannot heal from restriction whilst restricting. There's no gentle way to starve yourself back to health."
💬 "Recovery is available to you not despite your body size, but regardless of it. Your hunger deserves to be honoured now, not when you're smaller."
What I Cover in This Episode:
✨ Why "morbidly obese" is fear-based language - How medical terminology pathologises fat bodies and why health exists at every size
✨ Set point weight explained - Why your body has a natural weight range where it functions optimally, and why that might be larger than you prefer
✨ What restriction actually does to any size body - The metabolic, hormonal, and psychological damage that happens when you restrict
✨ Why your body might overshoot in recovery - How metabolic damage, hormone balance, and trust-building can temporarily increase your weight
✨ Fat as emotional protection - How your nervous system can use weight as a protective layer against past trauma, and why restriction won't override that
✨ The extremely rare genetic exception - Congenital leptin deficiency and other genetic conditions that affect hunger regulation (and why you're almost certainly not the exception)
✨ Living in a larger body right now - Practical adaptations, tools, and self-care that isn't about "fixing" your body but honouring it
✨ The grief that needs to be witnessed - Mourning the body you wish you had whilst accepting and caring for the body you have
✨ What health actually means - Why behaviours predict health outcomes far better than weight, and how restriction destroys health at any size
✨ What recovery looks like in a larger body - Honouring hunger, stopping compensation, doing trauma work, practising neutrality, and giving it time
✨ Weight as armour - Understanding how your body might be protecting you, and why healing the wounds underneath allows safe release
✨ The truth about being "too far gone" - Why you're not the exception, why your metabolism isn't permanently damaged, and why recovery is available to you
This episode will challenge everything you've been taught about weight, health, and what your body "should" look like. It's time to stop punishing yourself and start trusting your body.
