The seventh episode of the podcast will dive into options for treating patients that do not center on weight change. Significant and permanent weight change is nearly impossible for the majority of the population, so we need to use weight independent, evidence based treatment for people of all sizes.

 

In this episode:

  • Defining weight neutral/weight independent and weight inclusive
  • Health at Every Size ®
  • Intuitive Eating vs Restrictive Eating
  • Well Now
  • How to move away from using weight as a determinant of health
  • Thinking beyond the individual - how society can change to support health

I would like to thank Julie Duffy Dillon for helping me come up with the title for this episode.
