Hello friends. Today I'm tackling a question I receive a lot from potential clients and people interested in intuitive eating. The question is can I still practice intuitive eating if I'm taking a GLP-1 medication? I've spoken about these medications a lot on this podcast. They're prescribed for people managing type 2 diabetes but sometimes they are also prescribed for weight loss. They control blood sugar levels and can also impact appetite. So today I want to talk about how they operate and then explore how intuitive eating can still be practiced while on a medication that alters hunger cues.    It's important to understand exactly what intuitive eating actually is in order to fully discuss this question. Intuitive eating was developed by two dieticians in the mid-1990s, Evelyn Tribble and Elise Risch, and it's based on ten principles. At the core of all the principles is rebuilding trust with your body and tuning in to hunger and fullness cues to honour your body's needs. So how does this work if you're using a medication that alters hunger cues? Well, it is possible, let me answer the question directly, but it requires adapting some of the principles of intuitive eating to fit your unique experience. I talk about how GLP-1 medications work, what they don't fix, and how to approach intuitive eating differently, with the mindset of approaching food with curiosity and some respect. I will talk about body trust and releasing the idea that our food choices define our worth. So join me as I dive into this question, one I get all the time, so we can understand it together.__About Dr. Michelle Tubman:Dr. Michelle Tubman is certified by the American Board of Obesity Medicine, which means she understands exactly what's happening in your body when you diet.

Happy Satiated Saturday! Because of diet culture, I was scared of carbs for a long time. I barely ate them which ended up in binging on them. Thanksgiving became a time when I would eat as many sweet potatoes as I wanted only to feel sick the next day. One year I decided I was going to eat sweet potatoes every day while creating balanced meals around this food to experience that one of my favorite carbs could be incorporated into how I would like to nourish myself. By the next Thanksgiving, I had no desire to overeat on sweet potatoes. We're taught some harmful messaging from wellness and diet culture where it has become confusing how to create a sustainable way of eating. In this week's episode, I chat with Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, PhD, the founder of Nutrivore and New York Times best-selling author of ​Nutrivore​, about: The evolution of nutritionRedefining diet and understanding nutritional needsThe actual research on ultra-processed foodsIntegrating joy into nutritionChallenging food fearsCreating sustainable nutrition practicesAnd, her nutritional approach called NutrivoreTranscript here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/sustainable-diet-that-includes-your-joy-foodsWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Dr. Sarah: Website: https://nutrivore.com/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drsarahballantyneInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drsarahballantyne/Threads: https://www.threads.net/@drsarahballantyneFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/drsarahballantyne/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/drsarahballantyne/Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/nutrivoreNutrivore Book: https://amzn.to/3ARdYQlSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

Welcome, friends, to another episode of Thrive Beyond Size! I just got back from a vacation, an eight-day cruise with my husband Rob, and it was wonderful. I didn't use my phone once, I put it in my bag, I didn't take it out, and it was an amazing real break. After the cruise, I attended a medical conference in Orlando, Florida, on lifestyle medicine. One of the pillars of lifestyle medicine is eating a plant-based or plant-forward diet. There's a lot of evidence to support that such a diet is great for health but what I'm looking at is how choices like these can lead to a feeling of superiority about food choices. Sometimes our new clean eating obsession can get quite obsessive and can even lead to an overlooked eating disorder called orthorexia. And that's what I want to talk about today.   Orthorexia literally means “correct appetite” and it describes an unhealthy obsession with eating foods that are considered clean or pure. Unlike other eating disorders, orthorexia is not about the amount of food eaten but is more about the quality and purity of the food. What I want to look at is this new movement about clean eating and how it can disguise what is essentially diet talk in a new format. I want to examine how an obsession with clean eating can lead to orthorexia, discuss signs for identifying orthorexia, and talk about how such an obsession can lead to feelings of superiority about food and a tendency to evangelize. I'll also talk about how to step back from such an obsessive mindset and why it's important to enjoy our food and not obsess over it to the point of restriction or health impacts. So join me as I share some insight on this overlooked eating disorder and talk about how to manage it.__About Dr. Michelle Tubman:Dr. Michelle Tubman is certified by the American Board of Obesity Medicine, which means she understands exactly what's happening in your body when you diet.

Hi friends! I'm excited to bring you a bit of a lighter episode today. I know the last few episodes have been on the heavier side so it's time to lighten things up a bit. I want to talk about what the heck you eat when you're hungry but don't know what you want. Do you ever feel that? You know you're hungry and you stand at the fridge and just stare into it and can't figure out what you want? Or sometimes you're at a restaurant and can't pick anything off the menu. When it happens to me it's sometimes because I'm overwhelmed by choices but also sometimes I'm hungry and nothing sounds right, nothing sounds like what I want. So today I'm talking about how to navigate that.    In our society of diet culture and food restriction, sometimes those rules get stuck in our brains even when we choose to stop following them. So we might be hungry and searching for something to eat but we won't allow ourselves to have what we really want because it's not “right” or “healthy enough”. So sometimes we just don't eat at all. Or eat something that doesn't actually satisfy us. How do we navigate that? I'm going to share a list of questions to ask yourself to determine what's going on inside. Are you really hungry? What are you hungry for? What does your body feel like? What kind of food are you craving? I want us to get back in tune with our bodies so we can actually understand our hunger and what we need without old habits getting in the way. I'll talk about how to meal plan with flexibility, how to let go of this notion of only doing “what's right”, and how to try eating in different ways to really satisfy your hunger. Join me as we figure out how the heck to eat when we don't know what we want.__About Dr. Michelle Tubman:Dr. Michelle Tubman is certified by the American Board of Obesity Medicine, which means she understands exactly what's happening in your body when you diet.

Registered nutritionist, author, and friend of the pod Laura Thomas joins us to unpack the problematic notion that you need to eat a ridiculously large number of plants per week for gut health, and what we actually know about how plant foods affect the gut microbiome. We also get into how to distinguish good science from hype, how ultra-processed foods have become so demonized despite a lack of strong evidence, how anti-fat bias is baked into the discourse about both gut health and ultra-processed foods, and lots more. (This episode originally aired on Rethinking Wellness in March 2024.) Laura is a Registered Nutritionist who helps people feel less afraid of the food they eat and more comfortable in their bodies. Through her work with individuals and families, as well as in her writing, she challenges dominant ideals about ‘good' and ‘bad' foods and ‘good' and ‘bad' bodies. She holds a PhD in Nutritional Sciences from Texas A&M University, and worked as a post-doctoral research associate at Cornell University before starting her private practice. More recently she received a diploma in Clinical Nutrition and Eating Disorders from UCL. She has published two books: Just Eat It and How To Just Eat It, both of which focus on healing our relationship with food and our body through Intuitive Eating. Her clinical work is focussed on supporting families to end the intergenerational transmission of body shame and disordered eating. She writes the newsletter Can I Have Another Snack? Check out Christy's three books, Anti-Diet, The Wellness Trap, and The Emotional Eating, Chronic Dieting, Binge Eating & Body Image Workbook for a deeper dive into the topics covered on the pod.

Welcome back to the podcast, everyone! I'm very glad you're here. I've been reading a book called “Fat Talk: Parenting in the Age of Diet Culture” by Virginia Sole-Smith and even though I'm just a third of the way through it, it floors me every time I turn the page. The author is talking about the effects anti-fat bias can have on families and she shares some stories that break my heart. Imagine if your child was taken away from you because they're fat. Just simply because of their body size. This nightmare was real for some families and I want to talk about weight discrimination and how harmful it can be.    One of the cases talked about in the book was the case of Anamarie Regino, a girl who was removed from her parents at a young age because of her size. State authorities decided her weight was a form of child abuse or neglect so they took her away. Anamarie's parents fought back and argued that she had an undiagnosed medical condition that contributed to her size but it took months of court battle to return her to her family. I want to talk about how interventions like this and even well-intentioned health initiatives like Michelle Obama's “Let's Move” campaign, which heavily emphasized the “epidemic” of childhood obesity, contribute to stigma and harm. I explore the myth that a child's weight is the parent's fault, the messages that being fat is inherently dangerous that are sent by interventions like Anamarie's, and the impact all the discourse on weight and a specific mold of physical health has on children. So join me as I dive into why we need to speak out against anti-fat bias. __About Dr. Michelle Tubman:Dr. Michelle Tubman is certified by the American Board of Obesity Medicine, which means she understands exactly what's happening in your body when you diet.

Friends, welcome to Episode 175 of Thrive Beyond Size. Can you believe it's the 175th episode? That means I've done this podcast for 175 weeks in a row without missing a single week. I'm really proud of this accomplishment because I think it's the longest commitment I've ever made. When I started the podcast I was so nervous. I was terrified, actually. I did everything anyone told me to make it perfect. But as I recorded more my mindset changed so I was able to aim for B+ instead of perfection and it made everything easier. That ability to change your mindset to make something easier is what I want to talk about today. There are four key personality traits that tend to make relationships with food, among other things, more challenging for us. But good news! Mindsets can change.    The four key personality traits often standing in our way are perfectionism, the all or nothing thinking, people pleasing, and neglecting our own self-care. The most common is perfectionism. I identify as a perfectionist and even though it sounds like a positive it comes with rigid expectations that don't allow us flexibility. All or nothing thinking often goes hand-in-hand with perfectionism. Either we're really good or we've blown it entirely and we just give up. We've already had a piece of cake so we just eat whatever we want all weekend. People pleasing is that desire to please others and with food this might mean eating what everyone else is eating at a party or saying yes to dessert so you don't offend the host. And neglecting our own self-care often comes with juggling a lot of responsibilities. It's just easier to push our needs to the bottom of the list. If any of these sound like you, this episode is for you. I'll get in-depth on all four and talk about how to shift your mindset to alter these patterns of behavior for the better.__About Dr. Michelle Tubman:Dr. Michelle Tubman is certified by the American Board of Obesity Medicine, which means she understands exactly what's happening in your body when you diet.

Happy Satiated Saturday! It has become this norm that we "should" all be trying to lose weight all the time. And because of this, of course, you would want to lose weight. Your body seeks attunement with other bodies. When everyone around you is also trying to lose weight, your body interprets this as the path to safety and connection. Releasing the need to change your body's weight can feel scary and even threatening to your well-being. We need others to survive. If those you rely on connect with you over dieting and losing weight, an association can occur that not dieting is dangerous to your survival.It can take time and practice to question the impulse to change your body's appearance. By practicing this though, you will start to be the person who sends a message to other bodies that safety and belonging can occur simply through being together as we are.In this week's episode, I chat with Dr. Alexis Conason, Clinical Psychologist and Certified Eating Disorder Specialist about: The anti-diet movement and what it isDiet culture trying to co-opt mindful eatingBody image challengesBuilding resiliency against diet cultureThe importance of self compassionNavigating food choices mindfullyWhat eating what you want actually meansAction steps you can take to practice anti-dietingYou can read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/what-it-means-to-love-your-body-and-eat-what-you-wantDoors closing to the Somatic Eating® Program on Monday at midnight. JOIN THE SOMATIC EATING® PROGRAM!: https://www.somaticeating.com/With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Alexis:Website: https://drconason.com/ https://www.conasonpsychologicalservices.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theantidietplan/Book: The Diet Free RevolutionSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/discount/STEPHANIEMARA?rfsn=7433250.c99684Use my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. www.bensound.co...

Welcome back, beautiful friends, to the podcast. Last week we talked about how it's not your fault, your body is not broken, and you are not broken. Today is a bit related to that because I want to talk about food control. That constant food chatter in our minds, a constant obsession about food, feeling like we have to control food but also feeling out of control, that's what I want to talk about because when I do, I often get the response of “I don't actually food restrict, I haven't been on a diet in forever and this doesn't apply to me”. But here's the thing: I think because so many of us are used to the messages we receive day in and day out from diet culture, we're just used to a baseline of eating much less than we used to. We don't actually think we're restricting but we're constantly feeding ourselves fewer calories than what our bodies need to function well. And that's what I am going to address here today.    It's important to talk about how many of us feel like we're no longer dieting but we have this baseline of not eating enough and we're still caught in a cycle of food obsession, guilt, and even bingeing. Why is that happening if we're not restricting? Let's talk about how calorie restriction and nutrient deprivation affect our bodies and brains and how they sneak into our lives when we're not looking. It's a subtle restriction, like choosing a smaller portion than we need or not eating when we're hungry between meals. I'm going to talk all about things like energy conservation mode and how our hypothalamus monitors energy intake and expenditure, macronutrients and micronutrients, the body's built-in mechanism called homeostasis, the subtle signs we're still restricting without knowing it, and what to do about it. It's okay if this is you. You're not broken. We've all been there and being aware is the first step towards healing. So join me on this exploration of exactly how food restriction is hiding in plain sight keeping us from a fully healthy relationship with food, and how to move forward. __About Dr. Michelle Tubman:Dr. Michelle Tubman is certified by the American Board of Obesity Medicine, which means she understands exactly what's happening in your body when you diet.

With Halloween quickly approaching we wanted to revisit thoughts on sweets and if we should be limiting their intake and how we can talk to our kids about sweets. Sammie and I talked about how we should approach the topic of sweets and treats when it comes to our kids on this fan favorite episode. We covered: How do we talk about sweets and treats to our kids? How do we limit sweets & treats without causing deprivation and or a complex around certain foods? How much access should the kids have to the pantry that also contains sweets & treats? How controlled should this space be? What do I do if my kid only wants to eat sweets and won't eat their meal?

Hello friends, welcome to another episode of Thrive Beyond Size. I've been going through a real transition period this Fall and it's prompted me to continually remind myself “You're not broken”. All the changes from dropping half my shifts at work to spend more time with my husband and clients and shifting my priorities on how I spend my time, all of the things I'm working on have made me more in tune with my body. But it's also caused me to freak out sometimes. And when the stress freak-out happens, my relationship with my body tanks and I blame it for everything wrong. So I keep saying “You are not broken”. And that's what we're talking about today: that you are not broken.    If you have ever struggled with your relationship with food or your body, it's not your fault. You are not broken. Your body is not broken. But I want to explore deeper and explain the biology of what happens when food restriction occurs. I want to talk about why the solution isn't more restriction. I'm going to talk about how we were hard-wired to eat and how we eat now, what fasting does, why hunger ramps up, and how cravings work. We're going to get into it all so that we can understand exactly what's going on biologically when we're stressed out and our bodies are stressed out. The pressures that lead us to binges aren't a sign of us being broken. There are ways we can alter the biology, ways to reconnect with our bodies, and we'll talk about those. But most importantly we will say, together, “You are not broken”. __About Dr. Michelle Tubman:Dr. Michelle Tubman is certified by the American Board of Obesity Medicine, which means she understands exactly what's happening in your body when you diet.

Welcome back to another episode, everyone! In today's chat, we are explaining Stef's concept of "anchor meals", their psychological and physiological impacts, and how they fit into our daily routines. We start off with entertaining personal stories—from recording mishaps to culinary adventures in Spain—that segue into a discussion on why knowing when your next meal is coming is important for our mental and physical well-being. We explore how sticking to regular meal times can sync up with our body's internal hunger cues, providing a sense of security and balance—especially for those recovering from disordered eating patterns. Stef shares insights from her binge recovery course, highlighting the importance of scheduled anchor meals, while Sarah adds personal anecdotes about how meal planning differs for someone living alone versus a family setting. Whether you're someone who likes to plan every bite or prefer a more flexible approach, this episode covers how anchor meals can be adapted to fit various lifestyles—including tips and experiments to see what works best for you.  Don't miss this one if you're curious about reshaping your eating patterns, want to understand the principles behind "anchor meals" better, or are just looking for relatable, actionable advice on creating a more balanced relationship with food.
