It's time for your wellness check - Type 2 diabetes edition!

sandwich of happiness
Get ready for a rollercoaster of emotions!! The Checkers start off on a high with their new "good news" segment, then immediately get angry again with the discovery & discussion of "legging legs". They also chat about how's there's no such thing as looking like you work out, and answer a listener question about struggling with a decrease in performance and body composition changes. Stick around to the very end for a super special announcement, and the new direction the podcast will be taking. Time for your wellness check!

that's barbaric with Kirsten Ackerman
On the first episode of season 2 (!!) the Checkers are joined by Kirsten Ackerman aka @theintuitive_rd (https://www.instagram.com/theintuitive_rd): anti-diet RD, certified intuitive eating counsellor, and host of the Intuitive Bites podcast (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/intuitive-bites-podcast/id1383888050). We discuss how mental restriction around food can be just as problematic as physical restriction, and bust the myth of "food addiction". Kirsten also shares with us her harrowing story of working as a bariatric surgery dietitian and how that helped pull her even further away from a weight-centric approach to healthcare. We also chat measuring success with intuitive eating, and point out how intuitive eating may not be an appropriate model for everyone. Time for your 2024 wellness check!
