Summary
Welcome to this special series of Don’t Salt My Game celebrating the release of my new book How to Just Eat It. For the past several weeks, I have posted two new episodes of the podcast (Tuesdays and Fridays) that correspond with a chapter of the book to help you take your learning further and deepen your intuitive eating practice. Make sure you go back and have a listen. How To Just Eat It is out now!
In today’s episode I’m talking to Kimmie Singh, MS, RD, who is a is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist at LK Nutrition, a Health at Every Size® nutrition private practice based in New York City that supports people with eating disorders, disordered eating, and anyone seeking for support in healing their relationship with food and body. Kimmie has a passion for Intuitive Eating and weight-inclusive nutrition and is currently the treasurer for the Association for Size Diversity and Health; as well as an active member of the International Federation of Eating Disorder Dietitians. In this episode we’re talking about ‘the next steps’ of intuitive eating.
In this episode we talk about:
- How we can make Body Positivity and Intuitive Eating more accessible & inclusive
- Oppressive systems and their part to play in Intuitive Eating
- Barriers to Intuitive Eating
- How Intuitive Eating might feel unsafe to some folks
- The relationship between cultural assimilation and diet culture
- Social justice & equality
- Looking beyond our own personal Intuitive Eating process
- Clinical vs Emotional understanding
Kimmie shares her insight on the complexities behind making Intuitive Eating more inclusive, as well as sharing advice on why it’s so important to listen to clients on an individual, human-to-human level if they express concern around Intuitive Eating.

| 0:03.7 | Hey team, welcome to Don't Salt My Game. |
| 0:06.2 | I'm Laura Thomas. |
| 0:07.2 | I'm a registered nutritionist, director of London Center for Enchase of Eating, an author of Just Eat It, as well as my new book, How to Just Eat It. |
| 0:15.3 | We're here having conversations with game changers in nutrition and health, food, body liberation, |
| 0:20.4 | and some other things thrown in |
| 0:21.6 | for shits. In this episode, we're talking about chapter 12, the final chapter, where we go from here. |
| 0:28.8 | So as I say in the book, unlike diets and chitivitin is a means to an end, not an end in and of |
| 0:35.4 | itself. When you finish a diet, you are basically just stuck, |

| 1:13.6 | you have to buy into capitalist notions of success, productivity and achievement either. It's about |
| 1:19.7 | having freedom and choice and making space for things that are important to you. It's also an |
| 1:25.6 | invitation to reflect on and take action against the things that diet |
| 1:29.3 | culture distracts us from. Food and body hang-ups are intentional and deliberate distractions |
| 1:35.9 | engineered by a capitalist patriarchal society that thrives on insecurities, fabricated |
| 1:43.1 | inadequacies, and keeping women from realizing their full power. |
| 1:48.0 | In this sense, getting your shit together around food is subversive. The patriarchy has weaponised food |
