Todays episode is one I have looked forward to for a while.
Over the past few years, you may have heard the terms ‘anti-diet’, ‘intuitive eating’ ‘Health At Every Size’ and ‘weight neutral’.
In an industry that is predicated on helping humans lose weight in order to improve their lives, the above terms have caused quite a stir.
The reality is we live in a world that is locked into a bind with weight stigma.
Fat shaming and fatphobia are becoming more and more common place as people seek the ‘ideal’ body.
But where has all of this come from?
These are all questions I had when looking into the themes of weight neutral approaches.
And the answers are far more surprising than you might think.
It’s so easy for us to read a headline, see a post on Instagram or hear a conversation in the gym and misconstrue the whole message of these movements,
Gab is a powerhouse on this topic and has been putting out a stack of evidence based information on how to bridge the gap between an industry focused on weight loss, and a population that can’t keep the weight off.
Your in for a big one, but trust me, it’s worth couple listens.

Please consider taking 1-2mins to throw up podcast review on the apple iTunes podcast app.
(Apparently it helps more people find the show, and more listens means I can lock in more fantastic guests for the future).
