Maria Sylvester Terry of Vitamin Ri joins Dana today for a fun mix of a clinical discussion of Anti-diet vs weight neutral nutrition care, and some lighthearted banter about the current (sometimes problematic) state of the intuitive eating and anti-diet space on social media. Ri and Dana are chatting about how they work with gyms from a weight-neutral perspective, the difference between anti-diet and weight-neutral nutrition care, and how to make nutrition shifts without becoming obsessed or feeling like you need to eliminate your cultural foods. They also discuss how intuitive eating can sometimes feel like a dietitian sorority – and how the “first rule of no food rules is that you don’t talk about food rules” – just like fight club.
