Do you dread going to the doctor's office and standing on the scale? Is it legal to decline to be weighed at the doctor's office? Is there a link between our weight and our health? Dr. Maggie Landes joins us today to discuss her journey as a doctor in discovering the truth about the connection between weight and health.Maggie was a doctor who thought that our weight had an impact on our health. Then she was told she had cancer. Dr. Maggie discovered that being healthy had nothing to do with diet. She is now a doctor who treats patients by addressing their problems rather than their weight.I hope that you enjoy today’s conversation with Dr. Maggie. Cynthia Listen in to learn more {03:31} Weight bias vs. Weight stigma {12:31} Three issues doctors have with weight {19:40} Advocating for ourselves while still having trust in our doctors{34:05} Do we have the right to ask not to be weighed in the Doctor’s Office?{41:25} Why doctors should be asking about our menstrual cycle and having regular visits{44:40} Weight does not indicate you will be an unhealthy person Connect with Dr. Maggie Website: https://www.maggielandesmd.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/maggielandesmd Linked In : https://www.linkedin.com/in/maggielandesmd/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/maggielandesmd/ Connect with Cynthia : Apply for coaching: https://p.bttr.to/3dJneV8 Links: www.periodnutritionist.comTake the When Will MyPeriod Come Back Quiz: https://www.tryinteract.com/share/quiz/626aa3f218a24e0018c59fa6 Instagram: @period.nutritionist
