In this episode of 'Stronger Than Lipedema,' hosts Cindy and Kristy welcome Bonnie Newlin, a dietitian, owner and founder of Crave Nourishment, to discuss her personal journey with lipedema and her professional expertise as a dietician.
Bonnie shares her story of navigating through diagnosis and managing her condition, as well as her pivot from a focus on general weight loss and gut health to specializing in nutrition for women with lipedema.
She emphasizes the importance of individualized nutrition plans based on biomarkers and lifestyle, debunks common misconceptions about carbs and gluten, and offers valuable advice on managing dietary restrictions while maintaining a balanced, enjoyable diet.
The episode also touches on the physical and mental challenges of lipedema, the impact of surgery, and the importance of self-advocacy and continuous learning.00:00 Introduction to Stronger Than Lipedema00:50 Meet Bonnie Newland from Crave Nourishment01:31 Bonnie's Journey with Lipedema03:45 The Lipedema Method and Individualized Nutrition07:30 Debunking Nutrition Myths16:35 Managing Overwhelm and Building Habits19:47 Gluten Sensitivity and Lipedema24:45 Mental Health and Lipedema25:30 The Power of Nutrition25:52 Understanding Food and Binge Eating26:21 Personal Stories and Experiences27:35 Hormone Labs and Early Detection30:26 Surgery and Its Impacts42:13 The Aging Process and Body Image43:33 Final Thoughts and Advice
