147: IE Series, The Diet Mentality's True Colors With Shana Spence MS RD
The Lane 9 Podcast - A podcast by Alexis Fairbanks and Heather Caplan RDN - Thursdays
Intuitive Eating Series, Principle 1. Shana Spence, MS RD, joins us to talk through the realities of ditching a diet mentality, and seeing diet culture’s true colors. We talk about what, exactly, a “diet mentality” is, and why most of us have had one at some point. It’s a normalized behavioral pattern, however disordered and unsustainable it may be. We also discuss the stress of dieting, and how intentional weight loss may be more health-harming than health-promoting. Interested in discussing your thoughts & questions from this episode?
