Vinny Welsby is here today, and I could not think of anyone better to talk to about weight loss drugs with. They have done a really deep dive into research and know these GLP-1 meds inside and out. We all deserve to go into big medical decisions armed with all the information and we're so glad to be able to share what we know with you today!
Vinny Welsby (they/them) is a fat activist and diversity, equity and inclusion leader. They are a world-leading expert on dismantling anti-fat bias and diet culture, a TEDx speaker, podcast host and best-selling author. Vinny is trans-non-binary and is dedicated to shifting how society views fat and queer bodies through education and compassion.
When Vinny isn’t talking about DEI stuff they love snuggling with their dog, cross-stitching swear words and singing in a pop choir.
On this episode we talk about:
- All the different names & varieties that weight loss drugs go by these days.
- Why they may not be the "miracle" drug we think they are.
- The latest research surrounding them and why it may not be showing is the full picture.
- How much weight you can expect to lose on a GLP-1.
- What happens when you go off it.
- Side effects you may experience that nobody talks about.
- How to talk to your doctor about it.
- Why you might be feeling the pull to try one and why we don't fault you for that.
- Diets and weight loss drugs throughout history--is this just another flavor of the same shit sandwich??
- So many other good things!
