Caption this! (Make sure you swipe all the way through 😂)
⠀
Can’t wait to get home to these silly girls after several days away for FNCE! 😍

🤔 How would you complete this sentence?
⠀
👉🏾 Getting to the core of our motivations for physical activity can help us determine if they’re rooted in perfectionism and self-control OR enjoyment and self-care.
⠀
🤓 I attended an awesome session on exercise in eating disorders at #FNCE and appreciated the valuable nuance the speakers brought to this topic.
⠀
⚠️ This isn’t a permission slip for all people with EDs to jump into exercise. But we shouldn’t assume that all folks with EDs can NEVER exercise.
⠀
✨ When medically, nutritionally and psychologically appropriate (i.e. when you have clearance from your entire care team), high-quality movement such as some resistance band activities can improve muscle strength, bone density and psychological well-being!
⠀
Tell me - what do YOU believe exercise will do? 👇🏼

I’m off to Philadelphia for several whirlwind days with 10,000 other dietitians!
⠀
#FNCE (Food & Nutrition Conference & Expo) is THE annual dietitian conference and is always loaded with so much education, networking and fun!
⠀
I’ll be sharing snippets in my stories for you to follow along.
⠀
Here’s a fun fact: I used to work for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, who puts on the conference. I’m usually working this event and I’m excited to be a “regular attendee” this year!
⠀
I’m so pumped for sessions on intuitive eating, body image, diversity, eating disorders, climate change and more!

And for events with @bhn_dpg @nutritionentrepreneurs and @vndpg. ⠀
Big thanks to @vndpg who is sponsoring my trip! I volunteer with them and we have a big meeting tomorrow to talk about our strategy and programming.
⠀
Head to www.vegetariannutrition.net/faq to get lots of FREE resources on vegan nutrition topics such as calcium, protein, iron, vegan pregnancy. sports nutrition, vegan kids and more!

Fact: The world is a cruel place.
⠀
My job is to help you take care of yourself in the midst of diet culture.
⠀
It’s not always easy or comfortable but it IS worth it. I promise you that.
⠀
I’m having strong feelings about fatphobia in the medical community after a client of mine had a traumatizing experience with a doctor.

It seems no space is safe from diet culture.
⠀
What are your coping strategies when you encounter fatphobic and diet-y BS? It’s important to have a variety of tools in your self-care toolbox.
⠀
Getting angry is a part of this process. Just remember to aim that anger at the culture, not at yourself. ❤️

If you’re using veganism as a way to restrict, you’re more likely to ditch veganism and therefore less likely to help animals. And you’re inaccurately representing veganism to others, making the lifestyle less attractive. 🍩 Perhaps an unpopular opinion: DIETING AS A VEGAN HARMS RATHER THAN HELPS ANIMALS.⠀ 🍩 Check out the blog post and share your thoughts below!

If you’re new to intuitive eating you might wonder, “So am I just supposed to stop caring about my health?”
⠀
NOPE.⠀
⠀
But I’ll bet that after reading the book and working with an intuitive eating professional, you’ll likely expand your definition of health and pay a lot more attention to how your relationship with food impacts your health.
⠀
Honestly, I’m not going to try to bust every myth about IE on Instagram. You can’t learn everything about IE from social media.
⠀
You need to read the book, consider using the IE workbook and working with an IE dietitian to fully understand and apply the 10 principles of intuitive eating.
⠀
So if “health” is stopping you from learning more about intuitive eating, know that you can still care about your health and eat intuitively!

How has reading the book, using the workbook or working with an IE dietitian helped you better understand this approach?

Why aren’t vegan mozzarella sticks on the menu at more restaurants? 🤔 CUE THE PETITION! 😆
⠀
And vegan croissants! 🥐
⠀
These things exist. And the people want them. Listen up, restaurant industry! 🗣
⠀
Had these delish mozz sticks and nacho tots at @jselbys in St. Paul recently 😻🤤
⠀
What’s a vegan food you’ve had and loved but isn’t as widely available as you wish?

Here’s your reminder heading into a new week that IT’S OK IF YOU DON’T LOVE YOUR BODY RIGHT NOW.
⠀
Start with body respect. Can you stop doing harm to it in the form of dieting, too much caffeine, sleep deprivation, whatever it may be? Can you decrease the harm and increase the care?
⠀
Start there and don’t get too worried that you don’t love your body. This is a long (as in LIFElong) journey.

“One thing I’ve heard/felt/seen a lot is the idea that body LOVE is the goal, and that the opposite of not liking your body is loving it - and if you have any negative thoughts about your body that means you can’t have a good relationship with it. ^ this is actually a prime example of black-and-white thinking/thinking in extremes that may be making it hard to have a good relationship with your body.”
