About this episode
Some things you only say to your best friend. This time, Susie Banikarim — Emmy-winning journalist, podcast host, and one of Samhita's closest friends — is saying them out loud . The shame she has felt for being overweight, wanting to lose weight, and being on a GLP-1 (and still not being thin). How women privately support each other and share information about these medications. Intentional weight loss as a dirty word. And Susie's radical declaration: she doesn't care about being thin or what people think about her journey anymore. Guest: Susie Banikarim The Weigh In is a Weight Watchers podcast and is not intended as medical advice. Talk to your doctor. Produced by Dear Media
