Normally my guest and I love the books we read but in this case, Debbie Lesko had some challenges with this book and I am so glad she did.  Debbie Lesko runs the Facebook page and group, Diets Don't Work and some of the points she made about this book were valid and really important.  We get into why just focusing on weight gain as the main problem with dieting is wrong and how the Health at Every Size movement has progressed since the writing of this book.  We also talked about:  Deb's eating disorder recovery journey The negative consequences that come from dieting beyond weight gain Buying clothes in a larger body Living life now and not waiting until you're thin Finding hobbies after dieting Why Deb keeps fighting too hard The concept of Baby Steps in our journeys Why mental health is something we should be talking about more Social media tips for curating your feed Updating the resources in the book  Links: Diets Don't Work Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/DietsDontWorkditchdietculture/ Diets Don't Work Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/405546927065186/ Diets Don't Work Website http://diets-dont-work.net Diets Don't Work on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/diets_dont_work_haes/ Diets Don't Work on Twitter https://twitter.com/deblesko Books Mentioned: Lessons from the Fat-o-Sphere https://www.amazon.ca/Lessons-Fat-sphere-Dieting-Declare-ebook/dp/B002361KAI/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=Lessons+from+the+Fat-o-Sphere&amp;qid=1583101487&amp;s=books&amp;sr=1-1 Body Respect https://www.amazon.ca/Body-Respect-Conventional-Health-Understand/dp/1940363195/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=Body+Respect&amp;qid=1583101518&amp;s=books&amp;sr=1-1 The Body Is Not an Apology https://www.amazon.ca/Body-Not-Apology-Radical-Self-Love/dp/1626569762/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2X04ZSIVSX706&amp;keywords=the+body+is+not+an+apology&amp;qid=1583101552&amp;s=books&amp;sprefix=The+Body+Is+%2Cstripbooks%2C198&amp;sr=1-1 Anti-Diet https://www.amazon.ca/Anti-Diet-Reclaim-Well-Being-Happiness-Intuitive/dp/0316420352/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=Anti-Diet&amp;qid=1583101575&amp;s=books&amp;sr=1-1 Embrace Yourself https://www.amazon.ca/Embrace-Yourself-Taryn-Brumfitt/dp/0143787055/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=Taryn+Brumfitt&amp;qid=1583101718&amp;s=books&amp;sr=8-1 Dietland https://www.amazon.ca/Dietland-Sarai-Walker/dp/0544704835/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=Dietland&amp;qid=1583101744&amp;sr=8-1 Social Media Virgie Tovar https://www.instagram.com/virgietovar/ The Body is Not an Apology https://www.instagram.com/thebodyisnotanapology/ Daring Fat https://www.instagram.com/daringfat/ Your Fat Friend https://twitter.com/yrfatfriend The Kangaroo Sanctuary https://www.facebook.com/thekangaroosanctuary/ Cats of Instagram https://www.instagram.com/cats_of_instagram/ Podcasts Its Not about the Food https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/stefani-reinold/not-the-typical-momtm-show-with-stefani-reinold Trust your Body Project https://whitneycatalano.com/podcast/ Confidently She https://www.rebekahbuege.com/the-podcast Food Psych https://christyharrison.com/foodpsych The Fat Lip http://thefatlip.com Fat and Faithful https://fatandfaithful.libsyn.com I Wish I Were Me http://iwishiwereme.com Please connect with me on social media Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/I-Wish-I-Were-Me-463401447370876/?ref=bookmarks Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/iwishiwereme/ Twitter - https://twitter.com/iwishiweremetwt
