In today’s episode, Greg and Eric sit down for an interview with Dr. Krista Scott-Dixon. Topics of discussion include behavior change, how to change eating behaviors, common mistakes that dieters and nutrition coaches make, and how someone might assess (and potentially improve) their relationship with food.
Of course, this discussion is for educational purposes; if you suspect that you have disordered eating habits, you should consult with a qualified medical professional.
