Body acceptance is something we have discuss on the podcast, but not in depth. Today we have the privilege of having Certified Body Trust prodiver, Kristina Bruce, on the blog. We dish about the difference between body acceptance and “loving your body”, whether it’s healthy to accept your body at any weight, and whether you can have body acceptance but also do things like Botox and fillers. We hope you enjoy the interview as much as we did!

Beyond what society generally associates with weight loss (improved health and appearance, wrong or not!), there may be potential benefits to maintaining or achieving a weight that supports living your best life. The question then becomes, is the pursuit of weight loss a form of self-care, or perhaps not so much when the focus is on eating intuitively and working towards body acceptance? Tune in to hear us present two perspectives and accompanying discussion around the topic of weight loss as a form of self-care.

Big, messy topic. Why not tease the episode with a quote, “In a culture that places so much emphasis on physical appearance, and weight in particular, it’s no surprise that many people have a love-hate relationship with the size of their bodies…but what happens when a dietitian’s weight issues aren’t a thing of the past? Can dietitians who have been trained in diet and nutrition be effective nutrition counselors if they still battle with weight themselves? And how much (or how little) weight denotes such a struggle anyway?” We’re going there, join along!
