Welcome to the refreshed Weigh In With Gina podcast! In our inaugural episode, Dr. Beverley David, a clinical psychologist specializing in sleep research, joins Gina to explore how psychology intersects with weight loss. They discuss the societal pressures on body image, the psychological impact of dieting, and the need for sustainable approaches to weight loss. Dr. Beverly emphasizes the role of past experiences and societal influences on attitudes toward food and self-worth and touches on whether The Livy Method is a comprehensive enough approach to weight loss that prioritizes the underlying psychological factors.
