160. Eating Disorders vs. Obesity-Related Eating Behaviours (Part 1)
In today’s episode, I walk through the spectrum of disordered eating — from everyday overeating to clinically significant eating disorders like binge eating disorder and bulimia nervosa.
I explain how these behaviours differ, where they overlap, and why so many people feel confused about their relationship with food. I also cover the science behind appetite, reward pathways, and why some individuals are more vulnerable than others. This episode will help you understand the foundations before we dig deeper next week!

What happens after you’ve lost the weight you wanted to lose?
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Tasneem Sajwani, Medical Director of the Edmonton Weight Management Centre, for a behind-the-scenes look at the world of obesity medicine. We discuss how she found her passion for this field, the challenges and rewards of building a successful obesity medicine clinic, and the key elements that drive long-term patient success.
Significant weight loss can be life-changing for your health—but it can also lead to changes in facial volume, skin laxity, and the way we see ourselves in the mirror.
