Your go-to hangout for everything weight loss… and beyond! “Weight Loss and…” is brought to you by the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) and hosted by seasoned experts in weight management, Dr. James Hill and Dr. Holly Wyatt. We’re your friendly guides through the maze of weight loss, but with a fun twist. We’re not here to preach the latest fad diet or promise a miracle workout. Instead, we’re all about embracing the journey, acknowledging there’s more than one way to hit your health goals, and having a good laugh while we’re at it. We get it: weight loss can be tough, and sometimes pretty serious business. But why can’t it also be enjoyable? With a side of humor, we’ll bring you science-backed insights, real-life stories, and some hard truths. (Spoiler alert: there’s no magic answer - but that doesn’t mean we can’t find what works best for you.) “Weight Loss and…” is your inclusive space to explore, question, and learn — and to feel part of a community along the way. This isn’t just about shedding pounds. It’s about gaining perspective, building better habits, and enjoying the ride. So if you’re up for honest conversations about weight loss - spiced with a little science and a whole lot of fun - pull up a chair, plug in those earbuds, and let’s see where this journey takes us.

Losing weight on a GLP-1 medication can feel like magic until the scale stops moving. For almost everyone on these drugs, there comes a moment when the rapid progress slows, then stalls completely. Is the medication fail

Millions of people are now taking GLP-1 medications and losing weight, but is eating less the same as eating better? The answer, according to today's guest, is a resounding no. And almost nobody in medicine, food, or pub
What if the medications changing everything about obesity treatment are also creating problems nobody saw coming? We’re living through a genuine before-and-after moment in obesity medicine. Drugs that once seemed like sc
Everyone has been burned by nutrition advice that completely reversed itself a few years later. Eggs were dangerous, then essential. Butter was poison, then practically a health food. Fat was the enemy until we realized
You've heard it before. A friend, a coworker, or your own mother swears by something, and the proof is standing right in front of you. She lost 30 pounds. You've seen it. You know it's real. So why aren't you doing it to
Exercise is good for you. But good for your mood ? Your brain ? Science has now weighed in, and the answer might surprise you more than you'd expect. Join Holly and Jim as they dig into the most comprehensive review ever
Have you ever wondered why the same advice that worked perfectly for your friend did absolutely nothing for you? What if the problem isn't your effort, your commitment, or even the advice itself, but rather the body you'
For decades, the message has been simple: if you want to lose weight, you need to exercise more. But what happens when a medication can do the heavy lifting for you? GLP-1 drugs are reshaping everything we thought we kne
You hit your goal weight. Then, hunger crept back in, your energy dropped, and the scale rose. Sound familiar? You're not broken, your body is built for this. In this episode, Holly and Jim sit down with Dr. Rudy Leibel,
You've probably told yourself the story before: "I'm just lazy. I should want to exercise. Something must be wrong with me." But what if science says you're not lazy at all? What if avoiding the treadmill is one of the m
Every five years, the U.S. government releases dietary guidelines that shape what gets served in school cafeterias, what doctors recommend to patients, and what ends up on your plate. But what actually happens behind the
Everything you think you know about weight loss might be wrong, and that's actually great news. From "my metabolism is broken" to "I just need more willpower," the weight loss world is full of statements that sound compl
