Why We Don't Recommend Weight Loss For Type 2 Diabetes
Manage episode 402210875 series 2505583
In this episode, we discuss the common belief that weight loss is essential for managing type 2 diabetes. We address the prevalence of weight-centric approaches in diabetes care and the struggles people face in sustaining long-term weight loss. With the many limitations that come with restrictive diets, we discuss how outcomes like improved A1C, blood sugar control, and overall well-being are more important than the number on the scale.
In This Episode We’ll Cover:
- The prevalence of weight-centric approaches in diabetes care
- Limitations of restrictive diets and their ineffectiveness of long-term weight loss
- The importance of addressing behavior changes for improved A1C, blood sugar control, and overall well-being
- The challenges of sustaining long-term weight loss
- How we saw the need to pivot in diabetes management towards weight-inclusive care.
- The Impact of yo-yo dieting on blood sugar control
- Common assumption that weight is a behavior and the unpredictability of weight loss outcomes + MORE!
