Ep. 3: Fat vs Fit Shaming
from The FITTR Podcast with Jitendra Chouksey (Season 3)
Can you be fat and fit at the same time? The current culture has introduced terms like “fat shaming” and “BBW” to the lexicon,but is it hate speech to tell someone they need to lose weight for the sake of their health? Why are people so eager to fit-shame someone like Adele who chose to lose weight for her health, but the same people want to “celebrate”someone who’s obese and clearly unfit?JC takes a trip down memory lane and discusses the fitness icons he looked up to when he was growing up. Movie stars, athletes, models who epitomised health and vitality and inspired him to get fit. But when - and why - did wanting to look fit and lose weight become a bad thing?
