Intuitive Eating Webinar

by Caitlyn on January 21, 2012

About one year ago, when I was in my final year of undergraduate studies, one of my assignments was to interview someone who was in a place in their career that I aspired to one day be.  The assignment was for my Business Communications class, and we were being graded (by the interviewee) by how well-prepared we were for the interview and our ability to carry on a conversation.  Everyone in the class, including myself were in the College of Business.  Some were accounting majors (like myself), some were finance majors, and others were business management.  However, like you all know by now, I was already making plans to change my career so I could become a registered dietitian.So, I interviewed a registered dietitian!  (I’m assuming this took my teacher by surprise since I was an accounting major!)  The choice of which dietitian to interview was not hard…I’d was going to interview the lady who worked at the Wellness Center (my gym).  Not only does she work part-time at my gym, but she was works in a doctor’s office as their practicing dietitian and has her own nutrition counseling business.  On top of all this, she is working on earning her master’s.  Her list of accomplishments is amazing, inspiring, and motivating!  I could not have chosen a better person to interview!

We continue to keep in touch, both as friends and as my dietitian.  The other day, I sent her an update on my eating habits.  I told her how much I enjoyed reading Intuitive Eating, a concept I really had never been aware of (especially while gaining weight)!  Her response took by complete surprise…there was an online Intuitive Eating seminar next week!!   You may think me silly for getting so excited about an online seminar, but do you know how much I like this book and the method of practice that advocate?  It’s all about becoming more in tune with your body, respecting its needs with your wants/desires.  It’s ALL about balance and moderation!

The reason I tell you this is because I know a lot of you are nutrition majors, practicing dietitians, aspiring doctors with a huge interest in nutrition, or at least are very interested in health & nutrition.  I wasn’t asked to tell you this nor am I getting paid to tell you this.  I just thought you guys might find this very interesting!  Let me know if you’ll be listening to the webinar!!

I can’t believe I missed it!! I hope there will be another one soon, as I’m a huge fan of the book and the intuitive eating principles. Thanks so much for sharing, Caitlyn! I need to read my favorite blogs more often so I can stay up to date with these sort of things. ;)
