Earlier in my journey, I didn’t question what diet culture was—I simply accepted its ideas as fact. From counting calories to trying extreme diets, I thought all these efforts were necessary for my health and happiness. But as I dug deeper into obesity medicine, I learned how diet culture leads us to label foods as "good" or "bad," drives unhealthy weight-loss behaviors, and can cause us to overlook more important health indicators, like our energy and mental well-being. In this episode, I share personal stories about breaking free from these harmful beliefs and discovering a healthier, more compassionate approach to wellness.
