"Oh no, does this mean I’m going to be on a diet forever?" I did a recent deep dive into Noom for a recent podcast episode and it really touched a nerve. I got so many questions that I knew I had to scrutinize other popular diets on the market today. One of my amazing clients was a lifetime member with Weight Watchers and has such a common story. I know she will provide so much encouragement to you listeners. Amanda is from the Seattle area and has been plant-based since middle school, over 25 years. She grew up in a dieting household without any understanding of how to eat in a balanced, healthy way. In her early twenties, she joined Weight Watchers. We explore the rules of this diet program and dissect how these rules effected her relationship with food and disrupted her ability to listen to her own body's wants, needs and cues.  Resources from this episode: Amanda's Favorite Plant-Based Recipe: Chickpea Rice Soup Related Episodes: Episode 22 IGTV Discussion about Noom If you want to connect with me, visit the following:Instagram: @plantcenterednutritionWebsite: plantcenterednutrition.usFacebook: Plant Centered Nutrition
