On today’s episode of Diet Starts Tomorrow, Emily shares her Food Pinion that weird salads are the best salads. Lauren mostly agrees but then a debate breaks out about fruit in salad. Is it just a weird holdover from the 90’s or totally delicious? Then, they read a Dear DST from a listener who is wondering what to do about her child’s pro-diet culture classroom. Can parents actually affect change in their children’s schools or should they just focus on the at-home environment? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
On today’s episode of Diet Starts Tomorrow, Emily and Lauren interview Co-Founder of Intuitive Eating, Elyse Resch. Can you believe it?! In this incredibly candid interview, Elyse walks us through the roadblocks of pursuing weight loss, the benefits of Intuitive Eating, and what the “Age Of Ozempic” means for all of this. She also tackles the concept of ob*sity being a disease and offers up astounding stats on longevity as it correlates with body size. This episode is highly educational and even emotional at times.

On today’s episode of Diet Starts Tomorrow, Lauren walks Emily through her recent alcohol epiphanies and quandaries. First there was boy sobriety.. Now is it just regular sobriety? Is it possible to still feel hungover when you’re alcohol free? What’s going on here?! Then, the two review a recent article from HighSnobiety “Eating With Our Noses: On Gourmand Perfumes, Diet Culture & The Danger Of Smelling Sweet” by Alexandra Pauly. Is it coincidence that perfumes which smell like food are popular again just like in the early 2000’s when diet culture was ablaze? Something isn’t passing the literal smell test here.

On today’s episode of Diet Starts Tomorrow, Emily and Lauren share a fun nutrition hack they saw online which inspires both mindful eating and abundance. All you need to know is that chocolate is involved. Then, Lauren channels Barbara Walters for a deep dive into Emily’s history with dieting, weight gain, weight loss, disordered eating and eventually Intuitive Eating. In this deeply vulnerable episode, Emily reveals the pivotal moments in her life for when she began dieting and for when she finally stopped. There may be sensitive content in this episode for those with or who are recovering from an ED but it's an illuminating chat which ultimately highlights the horribly mixed messages we receive from diet culture and even our families during our most pivotal adolescent years.

On today’s episode of Diet Starts Tomorrow, Lauren and Emily recap a recent event put on by Pinterest which was all about their new inclusive AI tool which allows users to find images that look like them by selecting images of different body types. (It’s pretty cool; give it a try!) Then, Lauren shares a bold Food-Pinion.. or Drink-Pinion if you will. Are shirley temples just as satisfying as a cocktail and if so, how do you order one without feeling like a cheapskate child? Lauren and Emily bring you the hot takes and hot tips.

On today’s episode of Diet Starts Tomorrow, Emily and Lauren start us off with their weekend updates (come at us snl). Lauren continues to excavate her room and Emily shares about her recent seemingly near death experience with skiing. Then, it’s time for some self care shares; do those collagen eye patch things actually work? Do you really need new running shoes every year? Finally, the two celebrate “world ob*sity day”... excuse me sorry *checks notes* they read it for filth. Apparently this is a real day which the World Health Organization recently posted about on Instagram. Is it thoughtful or stigmatizing af? Tune in! Learn more about your ad choices.

On today’s episode of Diet Starts Tomorrow, Emily and Lauren chat about how “the age of ozempic” is affecting plus size influencers and their followers. Some people are taking it; some aren’t and emotions are HIGH. Is it a betrayal if a body positive account starts to lose weight or is it just none of our business? Then, the two review a disturbing new trend where semaglutide companies are targeting fat positivity accounts to take their drugs for ca$h. This is a sensitive subject and we are figuring it out just like you as it happens. Peace and love!

Lauren shares that she called out some body shaming language on a recent girls trip which thankfully got resolved in a super wholesome way. We’re all in this together! Then, they discuss a Betches article Lauren recently authored called “I’m Not Having Sex And I Actually Love It.” Content warning: there are some sexual experiences recapped that might be upsetting to some listeners; not assault but not great.

On today’s episode of Diet Starts Tomorrow, Emily and Lauren channel Dear Abby as they respond to TWO listener submitted questions. First, we hear from someone who is concerned about her boyfriend’s health and wellness habits. When guys joke about not caring if they live a long time.. are they actually joking? Then, they debut a new segment called “Fat Chats” which will be an occasional off-shoot of Dear DST and a call-back to our “Plus Lauren” segments. In this inaugural Fat Chats, we hear from a plus size listener who is having a hard time getting the courage to shop for an outfit for an upcoming formal affair. For all the above, Emily and Lauren offer up both empathy and carefully crafted advice. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

something about this Tanya Zuckerbrot lady rubs me the wrong way. it feels more like she's selling a product than she is advocating for a healthy lifestyle. also calling major BS that this isn't restrictive--this diet (weight loss method, not philosophy *cue eyerolling*) is restrictive AF. do appreciate the interviewer poking some holes (though she keeps getting interrupted and talked over, unfortunately).
