The Shame No One Talks About: GLP-1s and Weight-Loss Stigma

Shame. Stigma. And why so many people are hiding their Wegovy pens.

This video is for anyone who’s ever been told that taking medication for obesity is the “easy way out”—as if living in a body that’s constantly judged, policed, and misunderstood is some kind of cakewalk.

I’m breaking down the real reasons people hesitate to start GLP-1 meds like Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, or Mounjaro—and spoiler alert: it’s not because they’re lazy. It’s because we’ve been swimming in a toxic stew of weight bias and shame for decades.

If you’ve ever felt ashamed, judged, or like you had to keep your progress a secret—this one’s for you. You deserve health. You deserve support. You deserve to feel good in your body.

Let’s make that the new normal.

Thanks for watching and always remember: small tweaks lead to massive peaks!
