Sunday Coffee: Your relationship with food.

How does your relationship with food and weight impact your diabetes care? Join NWLR for this Sunday coffee and explore the benefits of looking at food, weight and diabetes as separate concepts.

Welcome to Sunday Coffee.

This Sunday, we discussed the benefits of separating food and weight from diabetes care. The Sunday Coffee series is for paid subscribers and includes access to the Nutrition 101 program as part of your paid subscription. What is the Nutrition 101 program? It is a five-part video series that explores the many decisions surrounding choice, macronutrients, micronutrients, gut health, and self-care without dieting. It also includes a 24-page ebook to help you visualize what nutrition looks like without dieting.

Exploring your feelings about food, weight, and diabetes.

In the diagram below, you can see how these are three distinct concepts. Your relationship with food can be understood as how you feel about food and eating. For example, is it something that excites you or something that you dread? Your relationship with weight and diabetes is understanding how you feel about these two things. Many people group food, weight, and diabetes together, which can make understanding them a bit tricky. This makes sense and is completely normal because these topics are distinctly different.
