Here is our most popular episode from the last 2 years of The Anti-Diet Club Podcast and it's all about transitioning to intuitive eating when you have been dieting for longer than you can remember.
This episode was our 3rd episode and we were still finding our feet with the podcast back then, but we knew that our listeners needed to have our take on how to move towards intuitive eating in the kindest, most compassionate way. There’s no doubt that dieting keeps a grip on us for a long time and we know it isn’t easy to let go of rules and beliefs that you’ve held onto for most of your life.
In this episode, we’re talking through the surprising ups and downs of starting an intuitive eating practice. We share our own experiences and some common themes we see coming up in our coaching practices. If you’re transitioning away from diet culture and are wondering why intuitive eating doesn’t feel like plain sailing then join us for this episode to understand more about what you may be experiencing.
Intuitive Eating - Evelyn Tribole & Elyse Resch

Moving from diet culture into intuitive eating
How does diet culture mindset impact our ability to eat intuitively

Stages of feeling stuck or like it's not ‘working’
Managing family life around eating intuitively

Show notes - Revisited: But I Need to Lose Weight
On this week's revisited episode, we get to number 2 in our most popular episodes. It’s no surprise that our second most popular episode is related to the feeling of needing to lose weight. The idea that our bodies are always too big is the very reason diet culture exists.
What if you feel that you need to lose weight? Perhaps you feel that it’s ok for others to be in a bigger body but you just can’t accept it for yourself. In this episode, we discuss why it’s hard to simply let go of the desire to lose weight even if you want to pursue an anti-diet path..
If you experience discrimination due to your body size, pursuing weight loss can feel like the only way to support yourself. Society often doesn't feel like a safe place to ‘just not focus on your weight’ and we explore why it’s okay to know that diets don’t work but still have a deep down desire to be thinner.
We explain how you may have been convinced that weight loss is the only route to health, but we share with you why health-promoting behaviours have very little to do with weight loss and what you can pursue instead.
Topics Covered:
Anti-fat bias
Medical weight bias
Beauty ideals
Body Grief
Family/Community
Dieting and weight loss
Accessing Medical Care/Fertility treatment
Eating Disorders
BMI
Health implications/Mortality rates
Health-promoting behaviours
Statistics Mentioned in this episode:

As Gillian and I take a short break from recording, we wanted to share with you some of the most popular episodes so far. This Episode is our 3rd most popular so join us this week to revisit this topic.
How do you set goals, focus on health or pursue your dreams when you are no longer dieting? Why does leaving diet culture often feel like giving up?
When you first embark on a life without dieting, it can feel a little disorientating and while everyone around you is still rooted in diet culture, it can leave you questioning if you have made the right choice.
In this episode, we help you detangle weight from health and bust some common myths around what it means to let go of the never-ending pursuit of weight loss.
Topics covered:
Health at Every Size (HAES)
The relationship between weight and health
Social determinants of health
Health behaviours
Mental/Physical/Emotional wellbeing
Non-diet goal setting

Our 50th Episode is here! We are so thrilled to be reaching this milestone and we wanted to do something special for our listeners, so we decided a special Q&A episode would be the best way to give you some of the direct answers to some of your most commonly asked questions.
Over the last two years, we have received so many stories, comments, DM’s, and emails from our listeners with so many different topics and questions and before now we have stuck to one topic for each episode. For this episode, we wanted to cover a wide range of questions for our listeners. We picked the top 4 questions and give you answers to the things that matter to you most.
We also catch up on where we are with our coaching, our personal lives, and what's next for the podcast in the future.

How do you let go of clothes that don’t fit and find joy in dressing for your today body? Dacy Gillespie has built her personal styling business around helping women to let go of body ideals and beauty culture and find their own personal style.
She joins us on the podcast to explore what happens in our body when we can feel our clothes digging in or open our wardrobes to see nothing that fits our body as it is today.
Dacy brings her experience of how she works with clients to understand their body story to bring out the needs and desires of how women truly want to dress when the rules and expectations are stripped away.
We delve into the frustration of finding size-inclusive clothing, accessing sustainable fashion, and rejecting the rules of fashion in a world that reinforces anti-fat bias.
About Dacy Gillespie
As a personal stylist, Dacy Gillespie intuitively guides her clients to discover what they feel best in. She helps them let go of the external messages they’ve been given about what they should wear and get to the heart of what’s making them uncomfortable about their clothes. Through their work building a functional wardrobe, Dacy’s clients make a mindset shift from thinking they need to wear what’s flattering to unapologetically taking up space in the world.
After a lifetime of jobs in high-stress careers that didn’t suit her highly-sensitive, introverted personality, Dacy started mindful closet in 2013 in an attempt to create a more emotionally sustainable lifestyle. She has two boys, ages 4 and 8, and a husband she adores who is well aware of her mental load.

How does diet culture affect men? This is a question we haven’t explored on the podcast before but we recently connected with Jonny Landels, he joined us for a very interesting conversation about how he went from a fat loss coach to a HAES-aligned PT openly challenging his own anti-fat bias.
He openly shared his struggle with knowing his diet culture approach was no longer what he believed in, but not knowing how to articulate what he was learning about intuitive eating and the anti-diet approach to fitness and health.
Jonny explains how the language around diet culture isn't often aligned with how men view their approaches to food and exercise, the language is different but the culture and the ingrained anti-fat bias is the same. He now tries to reach men and women with his non-diet approach to support them out of the rigid rules and disordered eating plans.
Bio:
I'm a former diet-culture-obsessed fat loss coach turned intuitive eating coach and HAES advocate. I spent years fighting my own body and believing I just needed to be more disciplined and motivated to maintain weight loss long-term. A couple of years ago I started learning about disordered eating and intuitive eating, I slowly pivoted my coaching and re-trained, and I've not looked back since! I now help clients break free from food and body obsession and end their constant mental battle with food while using strength training to help them fall in love with exercise again.

Our guest this week is Kelsey Ellis a body-positive fitness trainer who joins us to talk about movement outside of diet culture. Kelsey was a personal trainer who started her career in mainstream diet culture and weight loss focussed fitness, but she had a wake-up call that made her realise she was so deeply obsessed with body goals and counting calories and it was not only not serving her clients but it was damaging her own relationships and her ability to enjoy her life fully.
Our bodies love to move and Kelsey is on a mission to help people untangle body size from movement and find things they truly enjoy without guilt or shame.
We loved talking to Kesley, we’ve both been big fans of her for a long time and this episode is our first full episode about fitness and moving our bodies for joy, not punishment.
Bio:
Kelsey (she/her) is a Black, award-winning, body-positive fitness trainer based in Vancouver, Canada. She helps chronic dieters and exercisers liberate themselves from diet culture, build body confidence, and take the shame out of their fitness game!
Her on-demand studio Healthy With Kelsey TV offers 100% diet-talk and judgment-free fitness that encourages its members to move their bodies in a way that feels safe, inclusive, and uplifting!

We love books and it’s surprising that we haven’t spoken about the role books play until now. This week’s episode is a deep dive into how books can really support everyone’s journey into anti-diet and body liberation. We uncover the reason perfectionism can actually hinder progress and how to approach books along your journey without reaching overwhelm. What were the first anti-diet, body-positive books we read, and the role they played in us seeing a glimpse of another world that validated how we were feeling when we were caught up in diet culture.
If you love books (and podcasts because we also mention those) then this is a must-listen. Check out the books/podcasts we have mentioned in this episode below.

Let's talk about weight loss injections. If the headlines are to be believed, we’ve solved the puzzle of how to make fat people thin people…but have we really or is this just another diet packaged as a miracle cure? We reached out to Dr Asher Larmie to give us the inside knowledge of how these injections work, what the large companies and medical professionals are choosing not to show us, and what we know so far from the data and studies we do have.
Asher leaves no stone unturned and gives us the truth behind the glossy headlines, even as far as the links between those promoting them and the profits being made.
In this episode, Asher shares what we do and don’t know about the long-term impact, the probability of weight regain, the risks involved, and all the questions you may want to ask your doctor if they attempt to prescribe this to you.
Asher is our first returning guest and we are incredibly grateful for sharing their time and knowledge with us because this is such an important conversation to have for anyone curious about weight loss injections.
Dr Asher Larmie (he/they) is a Transmasculine weight-inclusive GP and a leading expert in weight stigma. They are a fat activist and the founder of the #noweigh campaign, which is committed to putting an end to medical weight stigma. They have over 20 years of medical experience and have been fat for even longer than that.
Topics covered:
Weight loss injections
Bariatric surgery
Diet companies and slimming clubs
Weight loss/Weight gain
Dieting
Anti fat bias

This week it’s Gillian’s turn to take the solo mic for her own personal story of body liberation and beyond. She shares her deep and honest accent of how her life opened up beyond simply no longer dieting and punishing her body. Unlearning diet culture leads to questioning everything from her career, and relationships to her values and beliefs.
Gillian gives a vulnerable, open account of how her life completely changed over years of self-reflection, therapy, and peeling back the layers of social conditioning that had contributed to losing sight of what she really wanted from life.
Topics covered:
Patriarchy and social conditioning
Diet culture
Therapy
Sexuality
Weight bias
Systems of oppression
Body liberation

With International No Diet Day upon us this week, we are discussing the ways the media have diluted the meaning of this day and used it to reinforce anti-fat bias and the idea that not dieting is unhealthy. This conversation leads us on to the ways in which the body-positive movement has strayed far away from the fat black and queer community, their voices all too often drowned out by the swathes of white, straight-sized bodies telling us to simply love our curves.
Our culture is so focused on thinness as a measure of health without questioning where this came from. We dig a little deeper into pockets of the history of dieting and the idea that women should keep themselves small to ensure they can keep the attention of men.
Topics covered:
Anti fat bias
Diet culture
Misogyny and patriarchal beliefs
International no diet day
Body positivity
Body liberation
Marginalized bodies
Medical fatphobia
Racism and anti-blackness
Ableism and healthism

This week Tamsin is doing a solo episode for the first time since we started the podcast. She is exploring perimenopause/menopause and the lack of representation and support for anyone who isn’t a white, straight-sized, cis-gendered woman. When we go through this phase in our lives the focus seems to be weight gain and there's so much discussion around being body positive but with the underlying message that we need to lose weight. Tamsin shares the horrors that she found when she went looking for fat-positive, weight-inclusive support for menopause symptoms and surprised herself at what she uncovered!
Tamsin also shares some things to consider if you find yourself trying to navigate healing from diet culture while going through the menopause years.
This topic is huge and in this episode, Tamsin really scratches the surface of what could be a series of episodes!
Topics:
Menstruating and cycles
Anti-fat bias
Diet culture
Body shame
Dieting/weight loss
Eating disorders
Bariatric Surgery
Intermittent fasting
Pregnancy
Intuitive eating
Menopause

Why do kid's clothing brands ignore the fact that plus-size kids exist? We speak with Pam Luck, founder of Ember & Ace, a plus-size athletic clothing brand that she created to meet the demand that other clothing brands appear to be ignoring.
In this episode, we ask Pam about her own experience as a young athletic kid growing up with no access to adequate sports clothes to fit her body, and how this affected her own relationship with sports. Now as a parent herself, she has a mission to not only fill the gap in this market but to raise awareness about how weight stigma in the clothing industry is affecting kids' ability to take part in and continue in sports they love.
Pam Luk is the founder of Ember & Ace, an athletic wear brand for plus-size kids. Growing up playing sports, Pam learned firsthand the importance of finding activewear that fits. Not finding it is one of the main reasons kids quit sports. Ember & Ace is launching their first five-piece essentials collection in February 2023.
Topics covered:
Anti-fat bias
Body image
Weight stigma in schools
Periods and puberty
Diet Culture
Plus size community

Her story of rebuilding trust with her body and accepting herself as a different size wasn’t straightforward, she admits she was skeptical and thought she would never truly be able to relinquish control of food and tracking numbers, in this episode she shares the pivotal moments that lead her to be able to be around food and be on the side of her body for the first time in her life.

What do you do when you are surrounded by folks who don’t have to struggle to find clothes in high street stores, or understand what it’s like to be told you can’t enjoy sports or activities simply because of the size of your body? Ebony took matters into her own hands and put a call out on TikTok for some big baddie besties! What happened next shocked her as her DM’s were flooded with people sharing their own experiences of being the bigger one in the group and feeling isolated and asking to join and Big Girls Who was born.
Ebony shares her story of growing up with body image struggles of her own and how she finally came to accept herself and everything her body can do and how she’s found dating since accepting herself more.
About Ebony:
Ebony Jamillah also known as Jamjamjamillah on TikTok is a micro-influencer that wants to make a difference. Originally starting her page doing hair tutorials, she always felt like she wouldn’t be received well doing fashion videos as a plus-size woman.
After seeing a necessary change across social media and being inspired by more and more plus-size models/influencers, she decided to finally get into plus-size clothing hauls and OOTD.
It wasn’t until ordering from a clothing brand that constantly gets plus-sizes wrong, that she reached out to plus-size women who could relate to the disappointment. She was just frustrated with not having enough plus-size friends and wanted to be in a space where others understood what she went through being plus-size but also, who wanted to be able to meet up and not feel like the odd one out in any situation.
With this, Big Girls Who was born and it’s been one of the best things she’s ever done. Monthly meet-ups with other big girls to just be fabulous and have that incredible support system.

This week we are joined by Rachael, a client of Tamsin’s who has a history of dieting through slimming clubs and always being the one who was the one sharing diet tips, bringing her own food to events, and obsessively navigating life around food and dieting.
She shares with us how becoming a mum and working in an industry that valued beauty and thinness left her lacking in confidence and unsure of a way out other than pursuing weight loss over and over again.
Her anti-diet journey began when she found the body positivity community and intuitive eating but with all those diet thoughts and desire for weight loss still taking up space in her mind, she knew she needed to get support. She shares her story of believing she was the problem to starting to put herself first and finding a peaceful relationship with food and her body.
