*This episode discusses eating disorders, disordered eating, substance use, body image, and other sensitive topics. Please take care of yourself while listening.
In Part 2 of Kat's conversation with Nanette Adams, MEd, LPC, LMHC, they have a candid discussion about eating disorders, substance use, and obesity care from both a professional and lived-experience perspective.
Nanette is a therapist specializing in obesity and eating disorders, an obesity advocate, and a person living with obesity who has experienced both bariatric surgery and GLP-1 treatment herself. Together, she and Kat explore how our relationships with food, movement, our bodies and other coping behaviors can change throughout obesity treatment, and why eating disorders can be particularly difficult to recognize when weight loss is being celebrated.
You'll leave with a better understanding of how eating disorders and substance use can intersect with obesity treatment, why they can be missed in higher-weight bodies, and when you or someone you love may need additional support.
