On this week's episode of The Diet Obsessed Podcast, we review two podcasts from Taylor Strecker, The Taylor Strecker Show and Taste of Taylor.

In both of these shows, Taylor is spiraling and sobbing, because of her body image issues.  She did an incredibly restrictive diet for her wedding and lost a lot of weight, however she gained it back in the following months and is now beating herself up endlessly.

Taylor is gorgeous and extremely talented, no one is focused on her weight except trolls, however she feels her self-worth revolves around her dress size and she is having a difficult time pulling herself back to a happy place.

Guest host and comedian Jesse Jolles helps Taylor focus on the value she provides to the world, which is her personality, her talent, laughter and fun!

We break it all down in VERY relatable episode.   Topics include: body positivity, self worth, self esteem, self love, diet culture, fat phobia, insecurity, self-judgement and more!  If you love these topics, you will enjoy this show!

On this week's episode of The Diet Obsessed Podcast, we review a recent episode of Food Heaven, with guest Ragen Chastain!

Ragen is a speaker, writer, researcher, athlete, thought leader, certified health coach and fat activist, who educates the public on fatphobia.  In this show, she shares important information about the healthcare inequities fat people face, due to provider discrimination.  

Weight is often blamed as the root cause for many conditions, which leads to misdiagnosis and fat people not wanting to visit the doctor, in an effort to avoid these unfair challenges.

Ragen breaks it all down with RD's Jessica Jones and Wendy Lopez.  If you like the sound of this topic, you will love this episode!

In this week's episode of the Diet Obsessed Podcast, we discuss how to maintain weight loss once you've reached your goal.  

Then we review a recent episode of The F*ck It Diet Podcast, with host Caroline Dooner and guest Catie Lynch, who is a therapist and coach, specializing in Eating Disorders. 

Caroline and Catie dive deep into cancel culture and how the anti-diet movement can be just as extreme as diet culture.  Both of these ladies have faced getting canceled on Instagram for saying "the wrong thing" and discuss the trauma of getting attacked for simple statements, jokes, being their authentic selves and taking up space in the world.  

While they still don't support diet culture, they also feel anti-diet culture can be just as harmful, when used in a toxic way.

In this week's episode of The Diet Obsessed Podcast, we discuss eating for anti-aging and cognitive health, which was discussed on The Taylor Strecker Show with co-host Dr. Wider.  We also discuss slow weight loss, weight fluctuations and getting the "Hungry Horrors."

We then move on to a review of a past episode of Diet Starts Tomorrow with guest host Jared Freid.  This was an episode I have been wanting to listen to and review for awhile, because it involves Jared and Sami getting vulnerable about their parents and eating issues.

I am endlessly fascinated by complicated family dynamics and how we are influenced by the way we are raised, especially when it comes to food choices, nutrition, how we speak to other people about diet culture, how we feel about our bodies, how we see and judge ourselves and others...etc; Jared and Sami dive deep into these topics and it's great to hear both a male and female perspective.

On this week's episode of The Diet Obsessed Podcast, we review a recent "subscription" episode of the Diet Starts Tomorrow Podcast...yes that's right, I finally pulled the trigger on paying $2.99 for the subscription mode of DST and it's a bargain for the great content they put out.

On this show, Aleen discusses the work she's been doing with her RD and how she fell back into tracking her food.  Her dietician wasn't mandating it, however Aleen felt the urge and started to do it anyway.  What she found, is it let her directly back to some of the unhealthy habits she used to have, such as binging at night on desserts, scavenging and moving away from what she intuitively wanted to eat.

I related to many of the topics her and Sami discuss on this show, including: binging, food as fuel versus eating for pleasure, intuitive eating, moving your body, meal prep, plant based eating, incorporating more veggies and more!

On this episode of The Diet Obsessed Podcast, I discuss how I made myself sick recently after drinking two glasses of red wine on an empty stomach, then proceeded to binge on pretzels with beer cheese and fried oreo's with ice cream.  I'm not one to beat myself up for eating indulgent food, but I was in physical pain that night...not fun.

Then we review a recent episode of DST, with guest host Jared Freid and regular host Aleen Drexler.  Jared was his usual hilarious, very honest self and he discussed his recent difficulties going to dinner with friends and having to share the bread basket.  

What I love about Jared is the details he provides, he shares the mental anguish he experiences every time he is faced with making food choices and his own body issues.  It's extremely relatable and it's always nice to know that other people share similar struggles in life.

In this week's episode of The Diet Obsessed Podcast, we discuss finding balance between nutritious food and fried food.   We also review a recent episode of The Skinny Confidential Podcast (TSC) featuring guest Melissa Urban, creator of The Whole 30 Diet.

I was VERY excited to review this show, because I've been extremely curious about the Whole 30 Diet for a very long time.   I thought I knew what it was about (I assumed it was for weight loss) but I was wrong!  Turns out there is a lot more to it and we get into the details in this show!  

We also discuss topics such as: Is all restriction bad?  Drug addiction, restrictive eating versus eating anything you want, diet culture, the patriarchy, CrossFit and more!

On this week's episode of The Diet Obsessed Podcast, we discuss the topic of Mind Set.  How does one get themselves into the mindset for weight loss, living a healthy lifestyle, creating healthy habits, body acceptance and really, anything you want to accomplish?  

We also review a recent episode of The Taylor Strecker Show, featuring co-hosts Jesse Jolles and Mckenzie Green.  Both of these dynamic ladies have done an immense amount of work on themselves and it shows!  Jesse discusses self worth, self care, creating happiness, setting boundaries, limiting beliefs and more!  While McKenzie discusses what she's learned from practicing stoicism and the podcast "The Daily Stoic" from Ryan Holiday.

We then review comedian Emma Willmann and her past appearance on The Taylor Strecker Show, when she discussed getting into a healthy eating routine, the love she has for her air-fyer, ways to control nighttime binging and more!

In this weeks episode of The Diet Obsessed Podcast, we discuss getting on the scale, seeing fluctuations and how de-motivating that can be.  We talk about a recent Chelsea Handler podcast where she discusses how she used to obsessively  weigh herself 6-7 times a day to ensure she stayed below 130 lbs.  

We then break down a recent episode of Diet Starts Tomorrow from Betches, with guest Caroline Dooner author of The Fuck It Diet.  Caroline, along with hosts Sami and Aleen, discuss non-scale wins, creating healthy habits and the joy that can come from moving your body.   

Later in the show, we analyze a couple Dear DST letters, which could be very triggering to some.  TRIGGER WARNING - if you don't want to hear eating disorder talk, the first letter was from a woman with a serious eating disorder who had to deal with destructive comments from her professor.  The second letter was from a female physician who had to deal with VERY inappropriate comments from a man, who was completely out of line and needed to be put in his place.

We feel all the feelings with these Dear DST letters: outrage, disgust, disbelief, shock, anger, frustration, vulnerability and we break it all down in this episode of The Diet Obsessed Podcast.

This week's episode of The Diet Obsessed Podcast, features a discussion on Weight Loss Drugs and Supplements, including Fen-Phen, Xenadrine, Prolon Supplements, Medi-Fast and Adderall.... some of these have horrible side effects and I share my personal experience, along with experiences I encountered when I was in the weight loss industry.  

Then we transition into a review of The Skinny Confidential His and Her Podcast, where I review an old episode featuring Naomi Olindo, when she was on promoting a wellness product, but then accidentally launched into a discussion on Adderall after being prompted by Lauren; it was a very honest conversation which I appreciated.

Finally I review a more recent episode of TSC, featuring Victoria Garrick, a body-acceptance influencer, who exposes the unhealthy world of Instagram filters and how a lot of celebrities and beauty influencers are promoting a false, unattainable image.
