Rethinking Obesity: What Every Woman Should Know Before, During and After Pregnancy

from The Motherhood Clinic · host The Motherhood Clinic

In this episode, we sit down with Dr Fareeha Rizvi, an endocrinologist and obesity specialist, alongside obstetrician Dr Fiona, to explore what modern medicine now understands about obesity - and why so much of what we've been told needs revisiting. We explore why obesity is a chronic disease and not a character flaw, what the latest GLP-1 medications can and can't do, how to think about weight before and after pregnancy, and why sleep, nutrition, and resistance training are just as much part of the picture as any injection.
