Episode 667 of It’s Bizzy features Elizabeth Chance in conversation with ICF-certified coach, motivational speaker, author, and fashion designer Regina Oswald about dieting, body image, GLP-1 medications, emotional eating, and what it really takes to make peace with food.
After beginning restrictive dieting at just 12 years old, Regina spent decades cycling through calorie counting, Weight Watchers, Atkins, keto, intermittent fasting, and other diet programs before realizing that constantly trying to control her body was taking a serious physical and emotional toll.
Elizabeth and Regina explore why traditional diets so often fail, how body image is shaped by family, culture, social media, and the beauty industry, and why learning to listen to your body may be more powerful than another restrictive eating plan.
They also take on one of the biggest conversations in wellness today: GLP-1 medications and weight loss. Regina shares her perspective on food noise, hunger cues, nutrition, muscle preservation, and why weight-loss medications should not replace properly nourishing the body.
The conversation also goes deeper into emotional eating, self-worth, aging, faith, and the pressure women feel to constantly improve or “fix” themselves. Regina explains her journey from body control to body trust and why caring for your body can come from love rather than criticism.
If you’ve ever felt exhausted by dieting, ashamed of your body, obsessed with the scale, overwhelmed by food rules, or wondered whether you can finally have a peaceful relationship with food, Episode 667 of It’s Bizzy is for you.
