    S5 Ep4 : Everything is connected

    Today we chat gut health. We explore the different things that impact out gut, why jumping straight to restriction or elimination of certain foods or a low FODMAPs diet is not recommended. We touch on prebiotics, probiotics and the impact of trauma or out emotional state on our gut functioning. A couple of gut health specialist dietitians we like are Marnie founder of Fork That and Joanna at Everyday Nutrition. We also mention this episode of The Imperfect's Podcast with Professor Felice Jacka. The best things Meg ate this week were from Flower Child in Chatswood (seriously food cold brew and food) and Bo Larn in Bondi Junction.

    S5 Ep3: Are you scared by Halloween lollies?

    Today we chat Halloween. Celebrating Halloween continues to grow in popularity and both Meg & Susan have had some positive community experiences that have changed their minds a bit on Halloween. We share how we deal with lolly overload in our homes, talk about our favourite sweets and as always share the best thing we've eaten this week. Resources mentioned include The Gamer Educator Instagram account.

    S5 Ep2 : Don't Let Diet Culture Ruin Your Cultural Foods

    Today we chat cultural foods and how diet culture undermines and devalues enjoyment, culture, nostalgia, connection when it comes to food. This was as close as we got to finding the original source for the Thai/Swedish research that we talk about.  We mention 'Your Latina Nutritionist' who talks a lot about this and it great to follow. We chat about the new RecipeTin Eats cookbook Tonight by Nagi Maehashi who is having a fantastic influence on the cooking habits of Australians!

    S5 Ep 1 : We're Back For One Short Final Season

    We're back and we have some news. After 2 years creating, podcasting and running courses we have decided to stop...for now. We're not sure how long but we both need a bit more time back to focus on our other commitments. We've loved this adventure and hope it has been helpful to thoses who have come along with us. Favourite things this week - Recipetin Beef Biryani - it's a book exclusive but there's a chicken biryani recipe on the website. If you're in Narooma check out Honorbread Bakery and Lynches Pub. Fancy a salmon dish, substitute the beef in this recipe for some skin on boneless salmon which was Meg's favourite thing this week and if you are in the Hunter Valley Baume is a great family restaurant.

  6. Bonus episode : Your Fat Friend Film chat

    2 OCT.

    Bonus episode : Your Fat Friend Film chat

    Popping back for a bonus episode to give you a nudge to get along to a screening of 'Your Fat Friend'. The story of Aubrey Gordon (of Maintenance Phase podcast) who first rose to some recognition for her anonymous work blogging as yrfatfriend. The movie delves into the lived experience of living life in a fat body. The impact on relationships, especially with her parents, on food and eating, movement decisions and interactions with the medical field. It's definitely worth a watch so check out the fanforce page to find a screening near you or even host one if there's not one you can get to. Our session was completely sold out so get in quick. Best thing(s) we ate this week... Thai from Thai Riffic in Parramatta Tacos from Gringa in Wollongong Small plate deliciousness from The Punthouse in Bateman's Bay

    S4 Ep11 : When 'Weightloss experts' try to talk about body dissatisfaction (Part 2)

    Today we go through in depth a summary of the webinar that we watched on body dissatisfaction. The good, the bad and the dangerous. Unfortunately we simply can not recommend this webinar for parent needing help helping their kids with poor body image. Much of it was not about body image at all but about how to improve nutrition quality and get kids moving and the bits that were about body image unfortunately were very surface level or impractical. It was missed opportunity and we were pretty disappointed. If you do want to access some 'on demand' body image help we do recommend our 'teen masterclass' : Helping your Kids Eat Well in a Food Confused Culture. It includes a big section on body image, practical suggestions and extra resources. It's only $35 and we have a 50% discount until the end of October using the code NICK50 making it a total bargain.

    S4 E10 When 'Weightloss Experts' try to talk about body dissatisfaction (Part 1)

    Just s short episode today, we squeezed in recording this just before watching a webinar on body dissatisfaction. Entitled ' What to do When Kids Don't Like their Bodies' you would think as Eating Disorder Dietitians we'd be thrilled that more people are talking about this issue. We usually would be. Unfortunately the 'Special Guest Expert' is not a clinician, not a psychologist but a 'weightloss expert' and 'obesity researcher'. As soon as Meg saw it advertised she immediately reached out to the host (a parenting expert with a background in education) to flag her concerns about someone who as a (self described) weight loss expert actively contributes to diet culture and fat phobia which are the key drivers of the horrendous body dissatisfaction rates that we are seeing. Unfortunately she didn't hear back so decided to buy a ticket, keep an open mind, strap in and watch, hoping to be proved wrong. We'll jump in to a deep dive of the webinar next week but spoiler...we were not proved wrong.
