We’ve been getting this question more and more often lately… Let’s talk about it!

At Maddox Nutrition, we are fiercely dedicated to a non-diet, weight-neutral, eating disorder informed approach to nutrition care. So when we support clients on GLP-1 medications, we’re going to prioritize your nutritional wellbeing while honoring your right to client autonomy in your health decisions.

Our top priorities are to help you…
- maintain a healthy relationship with food and body
- rebuild body trust
- recognize hunger/fullness cues
- reduce risk for disordered eating behavior
All without shame, restriction, or diet culture messaging.

We believe nutrition care should prioritize both physical and mental wellbeing💛

Looking for 1:1 support as you navigate eating and your relationship with food? ➡️ Our dietitians are accepting new clients + we take health insurance!!

Nutrition & eating does not have to feel as complicated as it does these days…

Here’s the thing, nutrition science IS complex. Very complex and nuanced actually. It’s a rather new field of science (compared to astronomy & physics for example), research is constantly evolving, and literally every single person’s body may respond uniquely to nutrition.

BUT rest assured that you don’t need to go down every nutrition rabbit hole that social media sends you down! There’s a whole field of healthcare providers who dedicated years of education, clinical experience, and 1:1 direct care experience to the study of nutrition👩🏽‍🔬

Registered Dietitians study this stuff so that you can get support that feels simplified and tailored to your real life🤗

We provide nutrition counseling & education so you can focus on what actually matters… and let go of what doesn’t❌

Any form of restriction disguised as "just a wellness advice" also tends to backfire biologically.

When the body senses scarcity, hunger cues often get louder, thoughts about food increase, and eating can start to feel chaotic or emotionally charged. That is not lack of willpower. Your body is literally designed to protect you and keep you alive. 🤍

If conversations like this help you feel a little more grounded around food and body image, Maddox Nutrition shares gentle, non-diet education rooted in intuitive eating and compassionate care 💚

You can stay awhile, learn at your own pace, and take what feels supportive for you right now. There is no pressure to have everything figured out overnight ✨

And when you're ready, we're here for you.

The most fitting audio for #5 🙃😂

1. “No, I haven’t had breakfast yet,” says my 11am client… 🫣GIRL let’s go to your kitchen and fix that ASAP🥯🍌 Eating in session with your dietitian is always approved!

2. Christians equating body size immediately with gluttony/sin❌ there is NOTHING about one’s body size that can tell you the status of their heart or relationship with the Lord. “For the Lord sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart.” 1 Samuel 16:7

3. Providers prescribing GLP-1s for patients with a history of or an active ED💔 oh man this one breaks my heart because this could be prevented by providers receiving more education on EDs, challenging weight bias in medicine, and knowing what questions to ask patients about their actual relationship with food

4. “So what do you do for work?” ➡️ the least favorite question for every dietitian at a social event… No, I will not make you a meal plan and no, I’m not judging what’s on your plate.

5. The Wii FIT to ED pipeline… if you were 12 years old in 2007, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN🙃

when eating is built around what is “allowed” or “off-limits,” your brain goes into constant evaluation mode. Am I doing this right? Did I mess up? Should I compensate later?
over time, food stops feeling like nourishment and starts to feel like something you have to manage perfectly.

that pressure is not a sign that you need more discipline.
It is often a sign that your relationship with food has been shaped by control, not trust.

Some of the things I say as a non-diet dietitian tend to get labeled as “controversial,”
but most of them are actually just a reflection of something we were never taught growing up: food and body experiences are meant to be flexible, not perfect.

A lot of distress around eating comes from the belief that there is a “right” way to do it.

A perfect way to eat.
A correct body to have.
A clear set of rules to follow so you
can feel “good enough.”

But in real life, eating is shaped by energy levels, stress, time, finances, culture, and even emotional capacity -- they all PLAY a ROLE. Removing that humanity from eating is often what creates shame, not what removes it.

And your body is not a measure of your worth or your discipline. That idea is deeply ingrained in diet culture, but it does not reflect reality or care.

If these ideas feel uncomfortable, that is okay. 🤍
Most of us were taught the opposite for a long time.

We support clients in unlearning these patterns in a way that feels safe, grounded, and paced to you.

💰95% of our clients pay $0 out of pocket through insurance. 📋 We accept Aetna, Cigna, UMR/United Healthcare, and Anthem/BlueCross BlueShield, Tricare/Triwest.
