Weight Loss Industry & Weight Bias

<p>Listen in as we welcome our first guest, Erin Lopynski, to talk about the weight loss industry and weight bias. Erin is an RDN based in the Virginia/DC area, and is experienced in the clinical nutrition setting, specifically assisting cardiac patients on their weight loss journey. In this episode, we tackled biases that people (and we) tend to have towards overweight/obese people and what that means. We also talk about why it's important to treat clients/patients from a human first perspective.</p> <p> </p> <p>Here's where Erin lives on the internet:</p> <p>Website: <a href='http://www.EatwithErin.com'>www.EatwithErin.com</a></p> <p>Email: <a href='mailto:nutrition@eatwitherin.com'>nutrition@eatwitherin.com</a></p> <p>Instagram & Facebook: @ErinLopynski</p> <p> </p> <p>If you would like further resources about weight bias and stigma:</p> <p><a href='http://www.uconnruddcenter.org/weight-bias-stigma-web-links'>http://www.uconnruddcenter.org/weight-bias-stigma-web-links</a> </p> <p>Implicit Association Test (IAT) specific to weight:</p> <p><a href='https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/takeatestv3.html'>https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/takeatestv3.html</a></p> <p> </p> <p>If you have any questions or comments, shoot us a message or leave a comment! </p> <p>Be sure to follow us at @healthunfilteredpod where you can keep up to date and connect with Brooke, Nicole, and Rogelio!</p> <p>Logo design: Anne-Claire Houck @anneclaire_1217</p> <p>Intro/Outro music: Kenyadda @kenyadda</p>
