Ep 277: Pediatric Disordered Eating, Weight Stigma, and Movement with Courtney Vickery MS, RD, LD

When you think about someone with an eating disorder, you probably picture an extremely thin teenage girl, thanks to media-driven stereotypes, but the truth is that eating disorders can impact people of any age, gender, or body composition. In fact, even elementary-aged kids are at risk. That’s why today, I’m bringing Courtney Vickery, MS, RD, LD on the show to shed light on what puts a child at risk for developing an eating disorder and signs that a child might be suffering from one.  As a Registered Dietitian, Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, and eating disorder survivor, Courtney is a wealth of knowledge on pediatric disordered eating. You’ll walk away from this episode feeling on fire for rejecting diet culture and weight stigma so you can create a ripple effect that helps the kids in your life develop a healthy relationship with food and their bodies.   Connect with Courtney: https://www.vickerywellness.com/ https://instagram.com/vickerywellness https://decletdesigns.com/ https://www.instagram.com/decletdesigns/ Connect with The Katie: Book a Free Strategy Call | www.katiehake.com/schedulhttps://www.todaysdietitian.com/newarchives/0221p16.shtmle Join The Free Community | https://www.facebook.com/groups/fitfriendshappyhourpodcast/Text me your AHA moment from today's episode!Feeling tired no matter how "healthy" you try to be?
