0:00.0	Hey there, welcome to episode 385 of the Find Your Food Voice podcast.
0:06.0	I'm your host and registered dietitian Julie Duffy Dillon and I am excited to unpack a very,
0:13.5	very popular topic today, one that many people have asked me recently and over the year. So I am really prepared to help you to navigate
0:25.0	insulin and blood sugar. Maybe you have a high A1C or gestational diabetes or you have a strong
0:32.4	family history of diabetes. All of these topics often will feel like they clash with giving up dieting,
0:41.1	whether you're experimenting with intuitive eating or maybe you're using some other non-diet

1:37.0	information to one of your in-person providers and use it as maybe like a roadmap as you
1:42.6	are trying to figure out your next best steps in conjunction
1:45.2	with their guidance. So something I want you to know, because one of the first questions,
1:51.9	or maybe it's not even a question, it's probably more of a dig that I get whenever I talk to people
1:56.9	about not dieting anymore is basically like that type of eating style is not for someone
2:04.8	who has a serious health condition like diabetes. And I think it's really important for you to know
2:11.3	that I haven't just been an anti-diet or intuitive eating type of dietitian for the last 25 years.
