Heather, RD, MHA, has recently completed a research study about weight stigma within the health system and how dieticians can advocate for the reduction of this harmful stigma.

Many people living with mental health challenges, Laurie included, have experienced discrimination due to their size when trying to access care. Heather shares tips for both providers and clients on how they can dismantle weight stigma within the system and advocate for the healthcare we all deserve regardless of size.

Heather has many great resources to share. Podcasts she references include:

  • The Body Grievers Club by Body Image with Bri
  • Maintenance Phase
  • The Fat Doctor

Some instagram accounts that speak about weight bias/stigma include:

  • FierceFatty
  • AntiDietFatty
  • DaringFat
  • Diets_Dont_Work_HAES1
  • TheNutritionTea
  • DietitianAnna
  • DrMorganFrancis
