Join Vera-Lee as she introduces the podcast WTF.lab. What, The, Flab instead of WTF (You know the one! - although everyone who has struggled with weight has had a WTF moment, or two, as well!). Flab is a term used for the excess weight held particularly on arms, legs tummies and butts, and also applies to the loose skin when a large amount of weight is lost along with the skin tone.

It also refers to the fact that I believe everyone who has been obese, or overweight, had had many WTF moments in their lives, so yes, at times you may exchange the WTF.lab with WTF! However, the .lab is all about the positive approach to weight loss with small changes you can implement today, wherever you are on your journey. I am all about seizing opportunities, and as someone who was 196.4kgs (440lbs) and has lost a whole person before WLS, I know a little about the journey and plan to help you with great tips and encouragement for how you too can join me on the losers bench (the good one!).

WTF.lab What the Flab? #WTFlab - Fatty Language "Feeding the Fat Talk" What's it like inside your head?
play

04/08/21 • 23 min

In this episode, What is fatty language and when do we start believing it?

Kelli Wray and Vera-Lee chew the flab about being overweight and wanting to live a full life unencumbered by stereotypes and other's expectations.

Vera-Lee talks about the day the fatty language inside her head, towards her own self image and worth, changed. When she starting believing that her size might be the reason people didn't like her, or want to be around her, or even to call her by her real name instead of some taunts. She discusses how easy it can be to accept what others impress upon you when you do not feel good about yourself, and how you can help yourself to rise above the snide remarks from others based solely around your size.

She also discusses how fat can start out being the symptom of other issues and at some point become the issue for other health and social concerns, aka feeding the fat.
