Fat Girl Book Club

Fat! So? by Marilynn Wann with Kayleigh Hyland

Episode Summary

I live in Canada but talking to people in United States is not considered International. Not truly. Technically I know that is not true but in reality I can get to the US within a few hours, so it is different than talking to someone across an ocean. With that logic, this is the very first interview that I consider an International episode. How exciting is that!?! I talked to Kayleigh Hyland about Fat! So? by Marilynn Wann and boy did we have fun. Here is a run down of what we chatted about: -Kayleigh’s fat positive journey -how we don’t have a fat culture but we do have a fat community -the joke about the pound of fat -how hard its is to think of witty comebacks when people reference weight -the way they changed the BMI categories arbitrarily -our connection to our bellies, betts, upper arms and chins -discomfort with being naked and how to work on it -what people are looking at when they look at you -how to start accepting your body -the word fat -a discussion of healthy habits -pieces of clothing on our fat positive journeys -our additions to the heroes and villains of fat positivity -a new segment on Fat Girl Book Club: The Lightening Round The links mentioned in this episode include: Fat!
