Diet Culture Part 2: How dieting impacts us

Anti Diet, Disordered Eating, Intuitive eatingBy annyckbessoMarch 1, 2021

In Part 1 of this blog series, we discuss the insidious nature of diet culture that falsely glorifies losing weight at all costs.

Anti Diet, Intuitive eatingBy annyckbessoDecember 31, 2020

2020…a year that we will likely remember for a very long time to come.
