Here you will find a wide selection of links to some of my favourite resources; food blogs, fat activists, resources for Mindful Eating and training providers as well as some local resources.
Food Blogs
Green Kitchen Stories – I have followed this blog for many years now, mostly for the amazing photos! A great variety of recipes too.
My New Roots – Another blog that I have followed for a long time. Sarah cooks extravagant plant based dishes.
My Darling Lemon Thyme – I came across Emma’s website when I was looking for ways I wanted my own food blog to look like. I since bought both her cook books and they are my most used ones ever!
101 Cook Books – Heidi’s blog has been around for decades, and rightly so! She shares both creative and more simple recipes. All vegetarian.

Non-Diet Podcasts
Positive Nutrition Podcast – A podcast with Paige Smathers RD covering a range of weight neutral and nutrition topics with guests.

Fat Activism / Mindful Eating / HAES etc.
