Hello and welcome to an episode of I Wei with Jamila Jamil.

This is one of our Ask Me Anything episodes where I go on the internet and I ask you for your questions

and I pick the ones that come up the most frequently.

And I always love these questions I really appreciate how

thoughtful they are how vulnerable you are and I do my best to answer them

honestly from my own personal experience. Okay so first first up, so someone's written in saying,

I'm working on body neutrality, especially postpartum,

when everyone around you, including society,

is not body neutral, and keeps reminding you that society is not body neutral and keeps reminding you

that your body should look a certain way. Mate, this is one of the questions that came up the most for today's

AMA. Everyone is really struggling and I don't blame you because the body standards have just

other nonsense. It is really, really severe at the moment what we're seeing

in the media and on the red carpets and even just among us everyone seems to be losing weight

very drastically and very quickly in a way that simply

is not very sustainable and it is creating again that beauty standard that I grew up in the kind of heroin sheet era of the

90s it is really really hard and it is really intense and I'm in an industry where

I'm literally surrounded by it everyone is taking these weight loss

injections and they're not eating and I go out to dinners

and I'm the only one consuming food and swallowing anything.
