Shifting the Focus from Weight to Health: Real Life Facts and Strategies for Supporting a Healthy Self, a Balanced Family and a Culture of Acceptance

In a culture of extremes, how do we find balance with food and health? This presentation will explore the reality of our society’s expectations about weight and the long-lasting effects of a “diet mentality” on individuals, families, children, and the larger community. If you’ve ever wondered how to focus on health and nutrition without increasing body dissatisfaction or food angst, this presentation will help you on that path. Attendees will have an opportunity to ask questions and engage in discussion following the presentation.

Presented by Samantha Lewandowski, MS, RD, LDN, the outpatient care coordinator of the Center for Eating Disorders at Sheppard Pratt.
