Disrupting Obesity
The Disrupting Obesity podcast is for anyone who’s looking to lose an extreme amount of weight and change their relationship with food so they can keep the pounds off. If you’re tired of feeling judged for being fat, of excluding yourself or being left out, and using food to comfort, reward, and cope with your emotions and the day to day, don’t waste time beating yourself up. You absolutely have what it takes to lose a significant amount of weight naturally in a way that you can sustain and that will ensure you keep the weight off too.
Hosted by Charlotte Skanes, a weight loss coach who lost and is keeping off over two hundred pounds, this show will give you the strategies and mindset you need to drop the weight. It’s going to encourage you and motivate you so that you can build the confidence and self-belief to find the healthiest version of yourself. It’s not about the food. It’s about your relationship with food. Once you start to change that relationship you can start disrupting obesity.

120 ~ The Promise
Nine years ago this month, I made a promise. Not a bargain for my life, but a promise to make my second chance worth something.
We’re coming off my longest series ever, the 101 Weight Loss Truths, and the response has been incredible. That series started as one episode and turned into eighteen, and now I’m making the full list available to anyone who wants it, for free.
But when the series ended, I wasn’t sure what to do next. Normally I’d go to an Ask Whatever episode, but those have shifted to Wednesdays with the launch of Weight Loss Wednesday. That means I had to step out without my usual safety net and talk about something bigger.
In this episode, I share the story of the promise I made during my five months in the hospital, and how that moment shaped everything I’ve built since then. From losing the regain, to surviving catastrophic illness, to creating this podcast, my cookbooks, workbooks, and the Flamingo Forum community.
It wasn’t survivor’s guilt. It was purpose. The promise wasn’t about surviving. It was about doing something with survival. About changing the conversation around weight loss and creating a safe space for women to do it.
That promise is why I show up every week. It’s why I built a private platform, why I answer your questions, and why I keep pushing to make this work as helpful and accessible as possible.
If you want to hear the story behind it all, this is the episode.
