When she developed the body kindness approach Rebecca Scritchfield, a well-being coach, registered dietitian nutritionist, and ACSM certified exercise physiologist, ditched diet culture and its fear-based control forever.
Alarmed by the dangerous degree to which the health and the weight loss industry have become enmeshed and how their messages about body size and sexiness lead to weight cycling, disordered eating, and anxiety, Rebecca rejected her field’s traditional view of what fitness and wellbeing look like. A champion of fat activism and the health at every size movement, her work shines a light on this much-needed culture shift and promotes body kindness and autonomy for all.
