I have never thrown out my questions when talking to a guest before, but I just had so much fun talking to Emily Lubin about The Hundred Year Diet by Susan Yager that I lost track of time and didn't ask anything I'd planned to! This book also provided us with lots to discuss. The 100 Year Diet was really problematic and triggering, so we were able to dive deep into some pretty nuanced discussion. Here are some of the things we talked about:

Emily's anti-diet journey
Dieting and children
The hardest parts of intuitive eating for Emily
Fad diets and why Emily will never eat ricotta cheese again
Diet pills
Why this book is so problematic!
The food and sex relationship
Blaming the individual for society's problems
Politics and food
The nuances of intuitive eating when not everyone has the same access to food
Why treating weight first is not healthy
The point the author is trying to make?
Is there anything good about this book?
