Anwar White (speaker) answers a question about what works for plus-size women and how to navigate men treating them differently after weight loss. Drawing on about 15 years of experience, White explains that people often experience a lag between actual body changes and self-perception—continuing to 'show up' mentally as their prior, larger size. He gives a numeric example (from 230 lbs to 180 lbs) and advises patience, grace, and compassion while adjusting to the new size.

Anwar, can you tell us what is actually working for plus size women and how to navigate men treating you differently after weight loss? Here's what I've learned in doing this work for about 15 years. Oftentimes it's not about the men that are treating you different after the weight loss. Actually what happens is it takes you time to shift your mind from someone who was bigger to someone who is a different size.
And so you're still.
Showing up as the big girl when you're not big.
So that takes a little bit of time. Sometimes it's like it's a six month gag, like lag and a gag. Right. So let's say you were at 230 and now you're at 180. Your mind will still be at 230 and you will navigate this world at 2:30. It takes time to get to the 180 so you're going to have to show yourself grace, compassion and patience.
For that.
Okay.
Which means that you might be showing up in the world differently.
Takes time. Takes time.
