Weight Is Just A Number

About this episode

You're probably used to thinking about your weight as some big, scary number that can influence how you feel about yourself. But what if weight was just a number? Simply a piece of information that had little to do with your actual health. On this episode of On Nutrition, we talk with family medicine physician Dr. Leslie Williams about the harm of centering weight in and out of healthcare, and how providers and patients can adopt a weight-neutral approach.
