[112] Drama within dietetics: weight loss vs weight inclusive care

In this episode of The Empowering Dietitians Podcast, host and dietitian supervisor Jess Serdikoff Romola builds on the conversation from last week's episode (see below if you missed it!) by addressing how we respond to other dietitians who are practicing in a way that we disagree with. While there are many issues in our field that can spike in-fighting, arguing, and out-right bullying, none lately seem quite as divisive as the debate between weight centric (/weight-normative or "pro" weight loss) care vs. weight inclusive care -- and while Jess has discussed these issues periodically on the podcast in the past, it's time for a fully updated episode. Listen in to hear Jess' take as she refuses to accept the issue as black-or-white, and to get her takeaways on how she believes we need to move forward as a profession.
