HAES with Deb Lesko

I love the Maya Angelou quote "I did then what I knew how to do. Now that I know better, I do better." As a society, we've been taught that being overweight equals disease, being unhealthy,  lazy, stupid, and a whole host of other negative qualities that have nothing to do with our size. So, it makes perfect sense that in our quest to be seen as 'enough' that we would try to conform to traditional standards of beauty - which for many of us are just simply unattainable.  In this episode of the Done with Dieting Podcast, I've invited my guest, Deb Lesko, to introduce us to the health at every size (HAES) movement, because I believe that the movement misunderstood. Tune in to learn what the movement is all about, and how adopting some of the movement's beliefs can help you feel better about yourself.
