(Revisited) #55: "Atypical Anorexia" and Weight Stigma in ED Treatment with Shira Rosenbluth

The Full Plate Podcast with Abbie Attwood, MS - A podcast by Abbie Attwood - Mondays

This is the last episode of the season break, and oh my goodness, is this one of my all-time favorites. Shira Rosenbluth (@theshirarose) joins for a conversation that we all need to hear, and that the ED treatment world truly needs to put into action. You really don't want to miss this one.  We talk about so much, including: What’s going on for Shira in this moment of life with her recovery and her therapy practice Balancing structure and flexibility in meals during ED recovery The culminaiton of factors that led to Shira's eating disorder Weight stigma and diet culture in eating disorder treatment The trap of quasi-recovery The new AAP guidelines on higher weight children The problem with “atypical anorexia” Being a “good fattie” Health is not a moral imperative How we keep healing in this world For the month of August and through Labor Day, I'll be taking a bit of time reset, rest, and reflect on this season of the pod before kicking things off again in September. And in the meantime, we'll be revisiting a few episodes from last year. Whether you've heard them before or not, they're worth the listen!
