Kendra Theones came to the field of dietetics with a psychology undergrad degree and work right now in nutrition & dietetics at New York City's Hunter College. Kendra desires to work in the field as a non-diet dietitian helping patients to recover from chronic dieting and disordered eating. She is Vice-President of the Anti-Diet Dietetic Students organization and is a member of the Association of Size Diversity and Health. Passionate about the non-diet approach and reducing harm in the fields of nutrition & public health, she plans to advocate for policy change to push the non-diet agenda forward. What was super fun was hearing how she stumbled upon her approach and brace yourself as she shares so many important shout outs to resources she’s gathered along the way. She will become eligible to sit for her board exam in the spring of 2022. We can’t wait to see where she will take this!!! Kendra’s recommended seasonings for us as professionals today: “How can discussions in school talk about malnutrition without talking about eating disorders?” “You have to make sacrifices and prioritize things that are more important to you to learn” Shout outs from Kendra: -Sick Enough by Dr.Jennifer Gaudiani - https://www.sickenough.com/ -Anti-Diet Dietetic Students (@anti.diet.dietetic.students) -The Kite Sisters Book – More than a Body [email protected] -Anti-Diet Book by Christy Harrison https://christyharrison.com/book-anti-diet-intuitive-eating-christy-harrison -Molly Kellogg RD – Internal Family Systems for Dietitians - https://mollykellogg.com/professionals/ifs/ -Intuitive Eating by Evelyn Tribole & Elyse Resch - https://www.intuitiveeating.org/ -Association of Size Diversity and Health https://asdah.org/ -Cross reference to Heather Caplan on supervision - https://heathercaplan.com/podcast/anti-diet-supervision-series-what-is-supervision/ Rachel Naar, RD – Eating Disorders and Food Allergies - https://www.rachelnaarnutrition.com/ Fitragamuffin Books - Unapologetic Eating and Gentle Nutrition [email protected] With your host Beth Harrell IG  @beth.harrell.cedss  Supervision Freebies
