2. But I Still Want to Lose Weight

Welcome to the second episode of the Life After Diets podcast. This week Sarah and Stef talk about the desire to lose weight, even after giving up dieting. We deep dive into topics like:

•  Is weight loss incompatible with giving up diets?
• The reasons why we decided to stop pursuing weight loss
• Weight set point theory
• How we deal with friends talking about weight loss and dieting
• Why we feel like we need others to approve of our bodies
• Why giving up weight loss isn't just a vanity issue
• Acceptance/approval versus love
• The relevance of body size in authentic relationships
• Feeling insecurity around male friends
• That feeling of: wait, I look like THIS?? 
• What does your insecurity really mean?
