In this episode, I interview prominent researcher, Dr. A. Janet Tomiyama, from UCLA. If you ever tried to diet or lose weight but have struggled to keep it off, this episode will explain why. She specializes in weight stigma, weight science, dieting, stress, eating, and the so-called "obesity epidemic".

Topics we cover:

  • Weight science: why it's so hard to lose weight and keep it off
  • What contributes to weight gain
  • How stigma explains the correlation between higher BMI and adverse health outcomes
  • The impacts of stress and stress eating
  • How to improve health without dieting
  • What to do about weight stigma
