00:00She hates this answer, but I believe it.
00:02I do hate the answer.
00:04My friends are losing weight on GLP-1s and boutique workouts I can't afford,
00:08and the comparison is starting to mess with my head.
00:10How do I deal with this?
00:12Don't feel bad.
00:13Don't compare yourself to your friends, for heaven's sakes.
00:15Just wait.
00:16Wait a little bit.
00:17You're going to get a pill for like $10.
00:19It's going to do the same thing.
00:21No, but the advice should not be to also go on the GLP-1.
00:23Well, maybe that's the only way that she can lose the weight.
00:26I mean, people shouldn't go on this as just an appetizer.
00:29No, but I think...
00:29This is a serious issue where they have to lose...
00:32If it's for five pounds, by the way, I don't think anybody should take these pills.
00:35They should just stop eating and don't eat chocolate cake.
00:38But if somebody has major weight problems, these pills are fabulous.
00:42Here's my thought.
00:44It's less about the access to the drug and more about the comparison to people
00:49because, I don't know, there's always something.
00:51Like, even if you get as skinny as them, maybe you're going to start comparing the fact that they,
00:55I don't know, have long thick hair and you don't.
00:58Like, whatever it is, I think that it just becomes about, like, how do you stop letting...
01:03Social media get in your way.
01:05Social media, people you know, celebrities on TV, like, mess with your own head.
01:10And I don't have the answer because I do feel like I compare myself.
01:13Like, I look at everybody and constantly I'm like, why am I not this? Why am I not that?
01:18I think that's just, like, unfortunately part of being a woman in...
01:232026.
01:24Right?
01:24I think it's truly about the internal validation you give yourself, always, at any age.
01:29And I think that comes from finding, I don't know, happiness in self-care, like, making you feel good.
01:36Whether it's, like, watching reality TV, maybe it's going to theater with your friends, like, whatever it is.
01:42Like, finding those things that make you feel good because on the outside that is going to make you confident.
01:46And that is going to be how you stop comparing yourself.
01:49She hates this answer, but I believe it.
01:51I do hate the answer.
