Podcast: NPR's Book of the DayPublished On: Mon Jan 23 2023
Description: Author and podcast host Aubrey Gordon brings up an important reminder early in today's episode: In the United States, the average size is plus-sized.

Gordon explores those societal taboos – as well as some of the misinformation surrounding them – in her new book, You Just Need to Lose Weight. She tells NPR's Juana Summers that there's a lot of power in reframing concerns about body image, especially when it comes to addressing judgments we may hold against ourselves.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
