  • I want more energy

  • I’ve been diagnosed with heart disease or diabetes and I am worried that I will no longer be able to enjoy my favorite foods

  • I avoid food or eat when I am stressed or bored

  • I am always hungry and don’t feel satisfied, even if I have just eaten

  • I believe that if I just had more willpower, I would be able to stick to a diet and lose weight

Physical and mental wellness and enjoying foods we like are not mutually exclusive.

In fact, they are intrinsically connected.

The status quo of the weight-science in western medicine is that a smaller body is a healthier body. We wholeheartedly disagree and see first-hand how this belief contributes to physical and mental suffering.

Food, nutrition, and movement certainly support our overall health, but the idea that health is in our full-control is much more complicated, as it intersects with genetics, trauma, environment, social determinants of health, and more.

Health at Every Size is an evidence-based model that helps healthcare providers care for people in bodies of all shapes and sizes. It is a much needed response to all the noise out there about food and bodies.
