Spring is coming!🌷☀️

But if your social media feeds, office chatter, and friends and family conversations have all started turning to diet-culture language to "get ready for summer," I invite you to think of this spring as a new season to *reject* that narrative! And ask yourself what you really want and need to feel your best.... not just for summer but for as long as you can!

I know it's not easy. Please reach out for support! I am here for anyone who wants help personalizing realistic and doable changes in eating, movement, and mindset so they can feel empowered to meeting health and wellness goals- in a way that doesn't feel terrible!

I encourage anyone who has obesity or knows anyone struggling with obesity to check out the work of Dr. Fatima Cody Stanford. I have had the privilege of hearing her speak many times as the Keynote speaker in the CDR obesity trainings I teach in, and she's doing awesome work.
PBS recently did this great piece on her:

And she also has a short, 7-min video on her MGH profile page about here work here: https://www.massgeneral.org/doctors/19693/fatima-stanford

Dr. Fatima Cody Stanford addresses weight bias and the new clinical definition of obesity.

Also for WIC recipients in NH, the NH DHHS did secure funding to extend WIC benefits till November 7.

This awesome therapist (Body-Positive Home) is always a wealth of information, offering excellent resources and talking points for the nuanced tricky business of raising kids (or ourselves!) with a healthy relationship with food and body. ☺️
We'd all do a little better to step out of the all or nothing thinking...

You can still find me inside the Zoo health Club in Derry, but I moved my space last year and only just got around to taking photos!

Happy Fall! I have the privilege of spending most of my work time in 1:1 visits with patients and clients or participating in corporate wellness programming so I'm not very active on socials.
But I try to post once in a while, so I just want to share this reminder:
Please remember that your value as a human being is in no way, shape, or form related to your food choices or how your body looks.
Foods are not inherently good or bad.
PEOPLE are not good or bad people if they live in certain body shapes or sizes.
PEOPLE are not good or bad people if they eat certain foods.
I know that our gross diet culture says otherwise, but this is the truth:
Food has no moral value. And WHO we ARE as humans, our contributions to our communities, our kindness and support of those around us, how we show up in our relationships and at work -- THAT is where OUR value lies!!

I am so appreciative I am able to collaborate with Victoria Kirby Wellness LLC in caring for our community. We find these comprehensive labs to be very eye opening and helpful in guiding next steps in our patients' wellness. Feel free to book an appointment with her and get these numbers for yourself. Knowledge is power ;)

Everyone loves saving money where they can! And Applegate products can be a good fit for a convenient protein source in many families. If you use these products (or wanted to try but the price has prevented you), here is a link to download and print a coupon for Applegate:

Attention to those who use this product!

Vital Proteins of Franklin, IL, is recalling nearly 60,000 canisters of their brand of Collagen Peptides because of potential foreign material

To my dear clients: It's truly my privilege to work in the community in which I live. The weather is finally getting nicer here in NH and we've all been out, enjoying our beautiful community and awesome local businesses... It brings me joy to see you around town and at local events. ❤️
If you see me and are comfortable, please feel free to say hello and I will absolutely be happy to greet you!
But please do not misinterpret my otherwise lack of greeting as rudeness- I am just following strict HIPAA laws to protect your privacy.
Happy Spring!🌸
