You asked, we answered! On episode 23 of the podcast, Samara is joined by fellow RD pal Lindsey Janeiro from Nutrition to Fit to answer listener questions. In this episode, Samara and Lindsey answer the following questions:
1- "I recently got engaged and was looking for advice about how to prepare for my wedding. I know I probably shouldn't care about losing weight but I want to look and feel my best on my wedding day. Do you have any tips?"
2- "I work in a large, open office space where coworkers bring breakfast pastries, desserts and snacks on a daily basis. While I do help myself to certain things when I want them, often times I am not hungry or would rather not eat any of the items brought. My coworkers have started making comments to me about how I won't eat certain things and that "I'm too healthy". This situation has become annoying to me and I don't know how to handle it without coming across as food obsessive or orthorexic (which I'm not). What should I say to them to make their comments stop?"
3- "I recently saw online where another dietitian said she did not look at nutrition labels and this surprised me. I see on Instagram that you look at labels all the time. Is this disordered eating behavior, and should we be looking at nutrition labels?"
4- "What advice do you have for balancing life and a healthy lifestyle?"

"I really believe that health is about being good to yourself. It's so much more than the meal plan or how many push-ups you can do". Rebecca Scritchfield joins Samara on the podcast today to discuss her popular book, "Body Kindness".
In this insightful conversation, Rebecca discusses the 3 Pillars of Body Kindness.
She specifically touches on the following:
how women can honor their health by practicing gentle nutrition intuitive eating: what it is and what it isn't (hint, it's NOT about weight loss) weight bias, weight stigma and how women need to look inside themselves to see if they are contributing to the problem why we should not be commenting on other people's bodies (ex: telling someone that they look live they've lose or gained weight)Rebecca also gives tips to registered dietitians and other health professionals who are trying to promote non-diet practices in a diet-obsessed world.
About Rebecca Scritchfield:
Rebecca Scritchfield is a registered dietitian nutritionist, certified exercise physiologist and author of the book, Body Kindness, which was lauded by the New York Times Book Review as âsimple and trueâ and called âa rousing guide to better healthâ by Publisherâs Weekly. Through her weight-neutral mindfulness-based counseling practice, she helps people make peace with food, find the joy in exercise, and create a better life with workable goals that fit individual interests. Rebecca aims to develop self-compassion in place of shame, by rejecting the rules of diet culture and the pervasive myth that to achieve good health one must achieve thinness.
