Dietitian Advice Newsletter

April 2012


Greetings!

 

I am pleased to announce that I have earned a few more letters after my name, CEDRD. This is a credential from the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals and stands for Certified Eating Disorder Registered Dietitian.

Reminder that this next weekend is the Dallas National Eating Disorder walk.  Would love to have you join me out there. Check out  validation that dieting does not work, as well as a new recipe I tried for the Easter holiday.

 

  

Healthy Regards,

Kathryn Fink

  Dieting doesn't work...Lifestyle Changes Work!
A recent study in the
Journal of Health and Social Behavior found that kids who lost weight still saw themselves as overweight and had a poor self esteem.  It is important to remember to not focus on weight when trying to get healthy. It is about how you feel, how you are fueling your body and what makes you unique and you.  We are not a number on a scale. The number should not tell us how good we feel about ourselves. Unfortunately, so much of our society focuses on what we weigh and if you don't meet a certain number, you need to take drastic measures. Those drastic measures often are not healthy, realistic or sustainable.  This is why I do not believe in diets, but lifestyle changes. Diet's do not work! If you are ready for a lifestyle change, give me a call as I can help assist you on a healthier transformation that focuses on self-esteem, improved health and wellness.
