by me, Ansley, and my husband Fred. Food, weight and health are issues that affect EVERYONE, but so often, we don’t get the whole story about how our bodies (and our brains!) work when it comes to weight. Our goal is to share insights from the medical experts who are on the cutting edge of the latest research on what causes weight gain, what really works for weight loss, and how we can shape our environment to make the healthiest choices.

There are a lot of myths about weight management that contribute to obesity stigma & the bias that exists towards people in larger bodies.

It has been a privilege to interview healthcare professionals (doctors, nurses, dietitians, and psychologists) working in the weight management space so we can make the FACTS available to everyone.

This is a site dedicated to education which does not promote specific branded products. We are driven by our passion to make health information available and understandable so that everyone can live a long, healthy life.
