Lipoedema: When Weight Isn’t the Problem — and Why Women Are Being Missed with Dr Chris Lekich

Episode #141

What if the problem isn’t your willpower… but your biology?

In this powerful episode of The Aging Project Podcast, we sit down with Dr Chris Lekich to unpack one of the most misunderstood conditions impacting women today: lipoedema.

For the women who:

  • lose weight everywhere except their legs

  • feel pain, heaviness or tenderness in their thighs

  • bruise easily

  • have been told to “just eat less and move more”

  • feel like their body is working against them…

This episode may change everything.

We discuss:
• What lipoedema actually is
• Why so many women are dismissed or misdiagnosed
• The connection with hormones and menopause
• How it differs from obesity and lymphoedema
• Why dieting often doesn’t “fix” it
• The emotional toll of being blamed for your body
• What genuinely helps support women living with lipoedema

Most importantly, this episode is about reassurance.

Because sometimes weight isn’t the problem.
And sometimes women have been blaming themselves for something they never fully understood.

This isn’t a failure of willpower.
This is biology.
