After a little break, we’re happy to come back with a stellar podcast episode: the issues we have with Diet Culture. We cover a huge amount of topics within this umbrella term: diets, the culture of dieting and wacky diets being introduced to help with weight loss. We discuss a little bit about weight loss and about the nutritional considerations when it comes to eating more optimally for your goal weight. However, this isn’t a podcast that offers weight loss advice - we’d always encourage you to read up on nutrition and consult a specialist who can help you with your personal health needs and goals. On this episode, we cover:
- What we think about calories
- Diets based on body shape
- Weight, BMI and health
- Thinking about weight loss as the side effect, rather than the main goal
- Why many weight loss diets fail
- Our problem with diet culture
- The dangers of yo-yo dieting
- The illusion of quick fixes in weight loss
- Why giving up your control to an app isn’t helpful
- Why reading nutrition labels is key
- Making intentional choices with lifestyle changes
- The value of small changes
