    The anti-diet movement arose as a crucial response to harmful diet culture—but has the pendulum swung too far?

From privilege in intuitive eating spaces to the impact of new weight loss medications, we're diving into the uncomfortable questions many practitioners are afraid to ask. Join us as we search for nuance in the space between diet culture and anti-diet dogma.
