Episode 72: Weight Watchers, Diet Culture and Our Kids: Four Adults Chat it Out

Weight Watchers, Diet Culture and Our Kids: Four Adults Chat it OutHappy March and National Nutrition Month! This month the podcast will bring conversations about nutrition and body image.

Bernie is back this week and we have two guests on the show!

You’ll hear fellow dietitian Whitney Hightower talk about what it was like to be complimented for dieting because it made her body smaller and criticized for gaining weight when she stopped dieting.

Then our very own podcast producer Shauna Reid comes on as we discuss the perils of being on Weight Watchers numerous times and what it means to offer a program to kids.

Listen here to Episode 72 here:
