Episode 25: The Obesity Podcast

Why Diet and Exercise Don't Work and What to Do Instead

Amy Hess Fischl, MS, RDN, LDN, BC-ADM, CDE

Obesity is a complicated problem in our society. If you are a person struggling with weight loss you will find validation, comfort and practical tips in this podcast. 

Two experts—Amy Hess-Fischl, a certified diabetes educator and Dr. Michael McGee, a psychiatrist who specializes in treating addictions—address the emotional side of eating, explain the neuro-biological process, and make a compelling case for treating obesity as an addiction. 

This conversation may shift your thinking and give you the insight you need to approach weight loss with a different, more effective motivation—from a place of self-reverence, rather than shame.
