Weighing in on weight loss and diet culture

NBC Universal, Inc.

Everywhere you turn, there is a new diet, a new meal plan, or a great workout to try. Social media & influencers are bombarding us with how and what we should eat to stay trim and fit. This year the weight loss industry in the U.S has grown to a whopping 90 billion dollars, much of it due to soaring sales of GLP-1 medications now available. 

So, how do we make sense of it all? In this episode on Mom2Mom Maria dives into the Diet Culture & Obesity in our country with Dr. Meghan Garcia-Webb MD. She is a Boston-based internal, obesity, & lifestyle physician who is helping us trim the fat on everything about weight loss! Including medications and how they work. Mindful eating and how it is done, Body image at every size & shape, processed food's effect on your body, and the biggie right now, navigating the holidays with so much food and people who might be sabotaging your weight loss pursuits. All that and more in this episode of Mom2Mom with Maria Sansone.
