Everyone's Trying to Lose Weight (Again!): How to Stay Connected to Your Recovery

If it feels like everyone around you is suddenly on a GLP-1, talking about weight loss, or shrinking their body... you're not imagining it. And if you're in eating disorder recovery or working to heal your relationship with food, it makes sense that this season feels especially hard.

In this episode, we're talking about why GLP-1 medications can feel so triggering, how to navigate the grief and comparison they can bring up, and—most importantly—how to stay connected to yourself and your recovery in the middle of it all.

This isn't an anti-GLP-1 episode. It's a compassionate conversation for anyone who has chosen a different path and is wondering how to protect their peace while everyone around them seems to be chasing weight loss.

In this episode, we'll cover:

• Why GLP-1s can feel so activating during eating disorder or disordered eating recovery

• The psychology behind comparison and social modeling

• How to practice body neutrality even when it's hard

• Practical tools to stay grounded when weight loss conversations are everywhere

• How to respond when friends or family bring up GLP-1s

• Ways to strengthen self-trust instead of getting pulled back into diet culture

Whether you're recovering from an eating disorder, healing chronic dieting, or simply trying to build a healthier relationship with food and your body, I hope this episode reminds you that you don't have to follow what everyone else is doing to care for yourself well.
