Episode 702: Fatphobia and the Obesity Crisis, the Media's Portrayal
YES& BODY POLITICS EPISODE 702
Is there an obesity crisis? Is TV and social media fatphobic? Is public health information wrong about being fat? Did the war on obesity work? Why was there a war on obesity? Why do people hate fat people? Does social media and tv still represent old problematic beliefs that aren't actual science? Why should we be careful trusting fatphobic public figures? Why should obesity be a social justice issue?

Episode 704: Fatphobia and Weight Loss as a Cure All
YES& BODY POLITICS 704
Will losing weight make me healthy? Is my doctor practicing outdated science? Is my doctor hurting me? Does the BMI tell me if I am healthy? Why does my doctor want to put me on ozempic/semiglutide to lose weight? Is there a cure for being fat? Do fat people need to be cured? Why does my doctor only look at my weight and not my health? Why doesn't my doctor believe me? What does the latest research say about obesity and health? Why do doctors focus on weight? Why is it so hard to get insurance to cover ozempic?

Episode 705: Fatphobia in Medical Language, Insurance, & Clinician Communication
YES& BODY POLITICS EPISODE 705
Why does my doctor say I am obese? Does being obese mean I am not healthy? What does obese mean? Is obese a medical term? Is obesity science? Is obesity a disease? Why do I feel shame around the word obese? Do I need an advocate at my doctors appointment? Why does my doctor treat being obese like a death sentence? How do I get my doctor to believe me and do something besides focus on my weight? I am fat, why can't I get help from my doctor? Why do I feel so bad when I go to the doctor? Why does the doctor make me feel guilty? Why does my medical paperwork and doctors notes make me feel stressed? Why do doctors need to know our weight?

Is the male body same as the female body? Does a male body react the same as a female body? Why do females have to fight so hard for care? Why does my doctor judge what food I feed my children? How can I have a healthy relationship with food if my doctor keeps bringing up my weight? How do I advocate for myself at my doctors?
