020 I Miss Richard Simmons

Send us a textDoes anybody else Miss Richard Simmons? Because I sure do. I miss how he made me feel with the 'Sweatin to The Oldies' workout videos. Now, I don't exercise and I don't teach it, but I still miss him and in this episode I’ll explain why. You’ll hear how Richard Simmons created a space for people dealing with extreme weight loss when it wasn't a thing like it is now. I'll also share why I believe making overweight people feel worse about themselves when they already feel bad enough is counterproductive and cruel.What Is Covered:Why I miss Richard SimmonsThe harmful effects of fat shamingHow to set realistic expectations for weight lossThe war between bariatric surgeries and natural weight lossThe tough love approach to losing weight Why making fat people feel bad about their weight is counterproductive and cruelCompassion for weight loss successThe challenges overweight people face dailyLosing weight when you're a picky eaterLooking for help on your weight loss journey?
