    I have 3 sons, my eldest is Thato's body type and he really is into food,I realise that we as his family comment on his eating. The rest of the boys are slim, I guess this conversation taught me how to handle this topic with them.

    • @thatomokoena2823

      Please apologise to him and let him know he’s perfect. Maybe also talk to his siblings to not comment on his eating. I know you’re a good parent because clearly you are teachable!! All the best.

    One thing I love about your podcasts is how you guys are always able to open up and have conversations that most men won’t have shout out ❤
    The bond you have with Lebo is amazing 🥰😭😭😭

    I think my hardest struggle is the comparison people make between my sister and I. She’s elder and thinner than me. I am the younger one and I’ve always been a big girl.
    So, people always make those comments like who’s the older one , why do you have a bigger body.
    I think overtime it just made me not want to see people that I haven’t seen in a while because the first thing they mention is your weight, ignoring all your achievements and every other beautiful thing that’s happening in your life. It really sucks 😔

    From someone who has rickets/brackets/digoro/magwegwe (medical term is osteomalacia) I've been cast away OR frowned upon OR judged first by people in my community.
    I'm mostly free and myself around White or Colored people.
    My OWN (Black community) will frown first before getting to know me.
    😫😥🤧This episode made me feel like I belong and I'm wanted.
    Thank you Thato

    I actually relate to Lebo when he said people made jokes like having kwashiorkor, I was very insecure about my body to a point whereby I get angry I even got into a fight with this boy in primary when he bullied and called me names. After that incident I got to actually overcome my insecurities towards my body and I must I am doing good🥰

    I'm someone who's always Been a "thick " girl from grade Gr7 to date. I was struggling alot with self-esteem. And everyone used to tell either me or my mom about how I must loose weight cause I might get sick as time goes. So I decided to loose weight and I did extremely well, consistently at the gym and I got skinny, now that I was skinny everyone was just asking me if I'm okay if I'm sick cause I looked like I was suffering from a disease. Honestly I don't think people who are close to us and those who aren't, realize the pain when they're causing when they comment on our weight and the damage they bring to our mental health too, rather let's just be kinder to one another. Thank you so much for this chat Thato and Lebo ❤️

    This was actually such a beautiful episode. I love how open and honest you both can be as gents, I’m hoping you are setting a trend for men to actually learn to reflect on and express their feelings. It’s so beautiful to watch. It’s probably not easy but a really big s/o to you and your cast ❤️
    I think it also made me really think about how I’m going to raise my kids one day, and how I can maybe be better in terms of the things I do and say to not be a negative catalyst in their image journey in terms of weight and everything else that comes with it.

    Ah man Thato, i hope you do reach the body goal that you want for yourself,totally get where you're coming from, and body dysmorphia is real. I hate the fact that people make it worse by commenting on your body weight, which has nothing to do with them. Just be patient, stay consistent, and progress will speak for itself. To anyone reading this that is relating to bodyweight problems just start slow and fix what you can and do not mind the noise out there people never stop speaking❤❤. I enjoyed this topic also big ups to Bra Voice Lebo

    I was teased for being bigger than people my age growing up, looking back at my pictures, my body was fire. Lost weight in high school because of aerobics then gained a lot back during lockdown. When the lockdown eased, I went sky dinning and was body shamed by one of the workers there, that was tough to see because it brought back all the childhood trauma back. Now I do not care, I am earning enough to do something about it but I do not want to as yet-Going to the gym helps boost my confidence, I have seem bigger people at the gym and if they can be present at the gym, Ima be at the gym 2X them maan.

  • @avuyilebangani5319
    @avuyilebangani5319 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have never related so much with Lebo, growing up skinny isn't as glamorous as everyone thinks it is. As much as people who are on the heavier side face the brunt more; people who are skinny face bullying. Not being the ideal weight that you should be at a certain age, it adds to how you feel as a person. Growing up skinny, it was never easy. People call you so many names and that hurts. But I'm so happy to have listened to this episode because it really has shed light on how men do not speak up about their weight. Absolutely loved how Thato and Lebo articulated themselves on this episode ❤️

  • @rstart.1276
    @rstart.1276 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nah I disagree with Lebo on the part about men only feeling threatened by what they perceive a woman wants - but I say this because I (female) used to think like that until I started being aware that people, in general, will always want to have the upper hand; it's just human nature. That's why even in friend groups people are comfortable or drawn to those that validate them and at any moment they feel challenged by the person, e.g. the example of the overweight individual who finally gets their fitness journey going, others will take a step back. So people of the same gender will be impacted by the other who they may perceive to be more attractive, because they may feel as though the other person thinks they're better than them or they may believe it themselves. Of course, all it takes is maturing and finding validation in things that have substance (and from within yourself) but that takes growth. - ALSO, there's definitely more societal pressure on a woman's looks, so that's probably why men are less intimidated by other men being good looking, or at least to the extent that women may be, and it also circles back to my view that it's not necessarily all about men and women being threatened by what the other gender wants - because in this case, it's a societal thing. People like looking at something that looks good lol

    Thato literally articulated what I’ve never been able to articulate about my weight struggles and my body🥹🥹🥹 This Year I’m choosing to fight to eat healthy and change my relationship with food and also get myself in gym and learn to enjoy working out.
    Having to buy clothes in the adult section as a child was so painful because you definitely can’t express your style and you can’t wear trending fashion and fit in with your peers. But you know what’s worse? Growing up overweight and insecure of your body, finally losing the weight in varsity & feeling confident…THEN getting to age 25 or so where you start gaining weight uncontrollably and it’s even harder to lose it. That’s literally starting all over again with the self love talks that barely work because your head is filled with all these voices of people commenting negatively on your weight all your life🫠
