This week, we’re revisiting one of the most powerful conversations in Plus SideZ Podcast history with Rosie O'Donnell.
As Kim takes time away following the loss of her sister, we’re sharing a few meaningful “greatest hits” episodes that continue to resonate deeply with listeners. Thank you for continuing to support, download, watch, and share the podcast during this difficult time. This community means more than you know.
In this replay, Rosie opens up about:
- Lifelong struggles with weight and obesity
- How the media treated her body over the years
- Bariatric surgery and her experience after surgery
- Emotional eating, shame, and public scrutiny
- What it feels like to navigate weight and health over 60
- Her experience with GLP-1 medications and changing obesity treatment
As conversations around GLP-1 medications continue to grow, especially with major Medicare coverage changes expected to expand in July 2026, this episode feels more relevant than ever. For many adults over 60, questions about obesity treatment, metabolism, bariatric surgery, and whether GLP-1s can still work after decades of dieting are finally entering the mainstream.
This episode goes beyond headlines and before-and-after stories. It’s an honest conversation about biology, stigma, survival, and what happens when people living with obesity are finally heard with compassion instead of judgment.
If you’ve ever wondered:
- Do GLP-1 medications work differently over 60?
- Can GLP-1s help after bariatric surgery?
- Why does weight loss feel harder with age?
- How much of obesity is biology versus willpower?
…this conversation is for you.
