Ohhhh this was such a good episode! Dr. Shawn Hondorp came onto the show to discuss a really problematic and brilliant book called Secrets from the Eating Lab by Traci Mann. We get into the weeds in terms of the science behind weight and while that sounds dry, we actually had a really lively conversation! Dr. Shawn worked in the weight science field so this episode is plum full of my questions to her about what that the field thinks about things like set weight range and the obesity paradox.
Some of the things Shawn and I got into include:
Shawn's Booklist
Health at Every Size by Lindo Bacon
Intuitive Eating by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch
Why Diets Make Us Fat by Sandra Aamodt
The Mindfulness Based Eating Solution by Lynn Rossy
The Body is Not an Apology by Sonya Renee Taylor
Fearing the Black Body by Sabrina Strings
