Weight And Health Are Not The Same Thing Ft. Lisa Hayim

Sami and Aleen are joined by registered dietician Lisa Hayim aka @TheWellNecessities to talk about how to listen to your body and rethink the way weight and health are tied together. They start the show with a conversation about the gray area of disordered eating, including how Lisa overcame her own food struggles. They share tools to listen to your body and explain the difference between inner noise and outer noise. Next, they discuss the best way to spot a diet in disguise and discuss the potential pitfalls of relying on a one-size-fits-all solution. Plus, they explore the concept of “thin privilege” and how common it is to fail to recognize the weight struggles of others. A listener writes in to ask about portion control when you’re recovering from an eating disorder. Finally, they finish the show with The Weirdest Thing I Do and a listener Non Scale Win.
