This isn’t medical advice — always talk to your doctor before making any health decisions.

In this compelling episode, we welcome back Ashley Johnston Palu, a remarkable finalist from Season 9 of The Biggest Loser, for a candid and eye-opening conversation. We delve into the raw and often heartbreaking realities behind the scenes of the hit show, as illuminated by the Netflix documentary, Fit For TV. Ashley shares her personal experiences and insights, offering a unique perspective on the complex dynamics between contestants, producers, trainers, and medical staff.

We unpack the friction that existed between the show's medical and fitness professionals, and confront the difficult topic of metabolic damage and weight regain that so many contestants faced. This episode explores how our understanding of obesity has evolved dramatically since the show's airing, moving beyond simplistic narratives of diet and exercise to embrace a more nuanced, evidence-based approach. We also discuss the critical need for greater advocacy and awareness surrounding modern obesity treatments, including the powerful potential of GLP-1 therapies. Join us for a powerful and honest conversation that goes far beyond the numbers on the scale.
