Nutrition With Attitude
By Susannah Alexander
My podcast is for you if you care about eating well to feel your best at any size, body positivity and the nutritional aspects of mental health. I'll be sharing lots of stories, fun and laughter as well as a bit of vulnerability to keep it real. If you'd like me to comment on any nutrition stories in the news I can do that too.

My Story Part 1: The Secret Diary of a Plus-size Child
I don't normally dwell on some of my less happy childhood experiences. Today I'm making an exception. It's not easy for me to share these personal stories, but it's important that I do, so that you get to know me a bit better. I'd also love it if hearing what happened to me made others a bit kinder, so that other plus-size youngsters don't experience what I did.

Rant Time: Weight Watchers targets children as young as 8.
Diet culture can contribute to a disordered relationship with food, stress around food and eating and negative self-image. Worse still, the vast majority of dieters will ultimately fail. And this is the culture that Weight Watchers seeks to inflict on our children. Today I talk about why I'm so angry about this, and what to do about it.
