Nancy and Sarah are joined by Chaya Leah Sufrin, one-half of the wonderful “Ask a Jew” podcast, to talk about a subject she’s mostly avoided: Weight and her own body. Chaya Leah recently lost 45 pounds, which coincides with a season when Sarah was shedding weight too, making for one big conversation about diets, discipline, self-care versus self-neglect, and the mental health savior that is exercise. Topics include:
* The forbidden TV show Chaya Leah used to sneak-watch as a young girl
* The secret to weight loss is deciding to do it
* How do you balance body positivity with, umm, reality?
* Atkins, South Beach, Weight Watchers, Scarsdale, etc etc.
* The Jane Fonda workout and the 80s VHS fitness craze
* Vitamin B12 shots, yea or nay?
* Everyone thinks Chaya Leah is on Ozempic (she’s not)
* Nancy and Sarah share a fantasy and it involves … pills?
* Chaya Leah’s crush on Elon Musk
* Did the ADL go to the way of the ACLU?
* Who Nancy wants to play her in the movie
And much more!
