How dropping pounds using slimming drugs like Ozempic made these women realize they had been victims of fatphobia for years
After Julie Simonson survived a sexual assault, she turned to the 7-Eleven across the street for comfort food. Her weight skyrocketed, along with her shame.'I would cope by basically overeating,' the psychotherapist from Philadelphia says, recalling how her health declined in the aftermath of the attack.Eventually she turned to gastric bypass surgery and lost 160 pounds.
It's even harder for women to lose weight—for whatever reason and by any method—in a predominantly fatphobic society that so often worships at the altar of skinny privilege.'If women are even a little bit heavier than what's considered our arbitrary ideal, then it's, 'Can you believe it? She's so fat,'' says Abigail Saguy, professor of sociology at UCLA.
