Let's face it: finding love is not easy, and it can feel even harder – maybe even impossible – when you're dating while plus-size in a fat-phobic world. That's why we asked psychotherapist and dating expert Krista Niles to talk with us about the challenges of plus-size dating in this episode of Dietitians Unplugged. Krista gave us the goods on everything: dating profile photos, body image issues, dealing with fat fetishists, weight stigma and fat acceptance stats in dating, first dates, the differences in straight and queer dating, and where and how to get help if you're struggling in the online dating world. If you're single and looking, we think this will soon become one of your favorite episodes!
