Speaking Of Hungry

Are you a mom struggling with your body shape and size? Are you trying to be a mom to your little ones but also putting pressure on yourself to get to some "pre-pregnancy" size you once were?  In this latest episode of Speaking of Hungry, I'm talking to anti-diet dietitian Gabrielle Kahn. She works with moms who struggle with disordered eating and want to create a healthy relationship with food and their body in order to help themselves and protect their daughters from diet culture. Even if you're like me who only has boys, you have to listen to this interview with Gabrielle. The information she shares about our kids looking up to us as role models and potentially adopting our disordered relationship with body and food is truly eye-opening. We talk about:  Gabrielle's dieting at 10 years old, how she was awarded a certificate of praise for losing weight from her nutritionist, and how this launched her into disordered eating and mistrusting her body.  How kids are absorbing our diet talk and diet behaviors.
