Nutrition Unmeasured

Each day I hear something new from a client, that they probably heard on TikTok.  “I should eat my vegetables first, right?”, or “I need to go 16 hours without food before eating, right?”. It’s so easy to be swayed by influencers these days. But what’s the truth?     Work with me using your insurance by emailing [email protected] My Website (one-on-one Intuitive Eating coaching)  Benefits of a plan based diet (research) The post Top Nutrition Myths: Don’t Be Fooled! appeared first on Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, Intuitive Eating Columbus OH.

Midlife is in many ways akin to puberty; hormonal changes and body changes that we haven’t been taught how to handle. As women, these changes can affect our quality of life, but do they need to?

The holidays are a time for merriment, joy, sparkle, family and fun.  The holidays as a dieter just don’t feel as merry.

“Weight bias often predates degree completion, for doctors, and one study showed 67% of medical students exhibited overt (explicit) bias against patients in larger bodies, calling them “lazy, unmotivated, noncompliant, and unhealthy” (source).  It’s no wonder so many people I meet with have such little desire to go to the doctor. Today’s episode is an interview with weight inclusive medical doctor, Mara Gordon.  Mara gives us hope that there is another way to look at health, that has nothing to do with the size of our bodies. Mara and I talk about everything from weight stigma and bias as a whole, the future of weight inclusive care, and how the increased populariy of weight loss medicaitons fit into our culture’s push towards body acceptance.

TRIGGER WARNING: This episode briefly discusses trauma.  Please take care of yourself and to another episode if this topic is in anyway triggering for you. Are you starting or hoping to start a body acceptance journey? Today I talk with dietitian and Certified Body Trust® provider, Aaron Flores, about the importance of owning up to stigmas and biases, as part of that journey. Does having stigma and bias about those in larger bodies make you a bad person? No, it makes you someone who has grown up in a culture where that exists. But, what can you do about it? Join me!

TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains a lot of diet and body composition talk.  If this is at all triggering for you, please take care of yourself and go to another episode. From Johns Hopkins University, Weight-centric thinking is the conventional–and arguably outdated–approach to health that suggests weight and weight management (primarily weight loss) are the primary determinants of health.  Today I have a civil debate about weight neutral vs. weight centric care.  Honestly, this could have been more in depth, but I felt an hour was long enough, for now.  My good friend and dietitian, Casey Lewandowski, is a wonderful dietitian who uses an approach not too dissimilar to mine.  She meets people where they are at and she helps them change their health behaviors in a sustainable way. The difference? She and her clients often use weight and other body composition measurements as a measure of success. As a weight neutral RD, I do not, and never will use weight or body composition as a measure of success, EVEN IF research suggests a correlation between certain body fat percentages and health.  Why? I feel like the stress of keeping weight off outweighs the affect that weight “may have”.  In order to keep weight off for good, you have to follow certain rules and restrict certain foods, and live a certain lifestyle, forever.  Not just temporarily, but forever (near impossible, and often leads to guilt when you can’t stick to it).  I often find even after weight loss, people are still not happy. What are we doing to ourselves? Join me as Casey and I dive into our own methods of helping clients. In the end, we both agree to disagree. Guess what? That’s ok.  YOU can decide what YOU want to do and what method YOU want to use in your personal life or your dietetics practice.  There are no rules. Take a listen.   Show Notes Work with me using your insurance by emailing [email protected] My Website (one-on-one Intuitive Eating coaching)  If you’re interested in Casey’s approach, check here out here The post Weight Neutral Vs.

You look in the mirror and hate what you see. You try on clothes and want to scream. The feelings that can overcome you in these situations are hard to handle, but they don’t need to take you over.

Feeling out of control around food can feel incredibly scary and uncomfortable. Often we blame ourselves; “I have no control! What’s wrong with me?!”.  But feeling out of control doesn’t have to feel so isolating. Maybe there is a better way to feel better around food, and maybe it has little to do with control, and more about self-compassion and permission.

Today I take you on my journey as a dietitian.  I had big dreams starting out as a dietitian, and I wonder, where would I be now if my dreams had actually come true? Hint: I’m glad they didn’t. Starting off at a weight loss clinic (you read that right) and making my way to the University setting, I’ve learned quite a lot in the past twenty years. I never would have guessed I’d end up where I am now, as a weight-neutral dietitian.  I’m happy where I am, and I know I would never be here if I hadn’t had some of the professional experiences I’ve had.

As a mom and dietitian in the food freedom and body positivity space, I thought raising kids without food rules would be a sinch.  But lately I’ve been overwhelmed by all the sugar!  My kids get offered sugar just about everywhere they go, even the end of their doctor visit (“want a lollipop”?) or their haircuts (“want some candy?”) and their sports games (“Gatorade for all!”).  I feel like it’s gotten out of hand, so I gathered an expert on kids and feeding, Jennifer Anderson.  Jennifer provides tips on how to handle all the sugar, but without being restrictive and authoritarian.  With the holidays coming up, Jennifer’s tips are incredibly timely!

Thank you! Today is the first in a series of episodes where I read a letter I have written to myself, out loud on the podcast. Today’s letter is written to my college self. These episodes I now know, will be a type of therapy for me, as I discovered while writing this. It’s not surprising that I learned a lot about myself and my past just by writing down these words. Maybe you will be able to see yourself in some of these words, maybe you know someone who is suffering as I was, or maybe you won’t relate at all.  Take a listen.

Five years ago when I first heard Aaron Flores on his podcast, Dietitians Unplugged, I never would have dreamed I’d have a chance to interview him on my own podcast. Today we talk about coaching on Intuitive Eating and Body respect when you have thin privilege, the importance of recognizing your privilege and doing the extra work to listen and stay educated in this space, and so much more.

Are you considering an Intuitive Eating journey? Today I discuss five things you can do today to jump start that journey.  No need to jump in all the way, just get your toes wet.  Intuitive Eating is a journey, and a lifelong one at that, so it’s ok, and suggested, to start slow and at a pace that you feel most comfortable with.  I offer general support coaching sessions on an hourly basis, to see if you might be interested in Intuitive Eating, and I also offer my Personal Intuitive Eating and Wellness program if you’re ready to jump in all the way (with a free introductory call as an initial step to see if it’s right for you).  Take a listen and see what you think!

I used to absolutely loathe running.  Before gym class, when I knew we’d have to run, I would get an upset stomach and butterflies all day long. I was slow, so I was embarrassed, but I was also not in the best endurance shape (because I was a kid, and I played softball, where back then there wasn’t much endurance training involved). I resigned myself to sprinting only, because I was really great at that (I could hit a terrible ball in softball and still make it to first on time!). Flash forward thirty years later, and I’m running half marathons.  Tune in to hear my story of moving from hating, to loving running, and how I trained for my first half marathon using tools of intuitive eating (no counting or recording!).

I’m back!  This time, I’m going solo.  After three years of the Dietitians Dish Podcast, Nicole and I said goodbye back in November 2022.  It just became too much, and we realized we weren’t taking our own self-care seriously (oops!).  Now, I’m alone and talking about all things Intuitive Eating, body respect, self-care, wellness, nutrition and more.  I will have interviews, Q&A opportunities, and a lot of fun topics that pertain to the whole family. I’ll be posting episodes every other Monday.  I’m excited to start podcasting again!
