<![CDATA[Glucose Riot]]>Glucose Riot was created for people with diabetes who want honest, nuanced, fat positive, and non-diet information about living with and managing diabetes. Hosted by two dietitians and diabetes educators, Erin Phillips, MPH, RD, CDCES and Kelly Six, MS, RDN, CDCES. Our philosophy is that there's no magical *One Right Way* to manage diabetes, and there are a lot of valid choices when it comes to living with diabetes (surprise! we are human and show up in lots of different ways!). We are not here to prescribe or push a particular strategy but to have conversations about nutrition and diabetes topics.

We value body autonomy and what you do with your body is entirely up to you. And thank goodness -- we couldn't live with that kind of responsibility if what you did was up to us! This means that If you decide to diet or pursue intentional weight loss, we're not mad at you and we never want to shame you for your own choices. Our aim is to show that there are many ways to approach diabetes that do not center weight loss that can support happy and healthy humans. That being said, there are already a lot of diet-y diabetes podcasts already -- if that is something you're looking for, we aren't your gals.

Have a topic in mind you'd like us to talk about? Please let us know! Send emails to glucoseriotpod@gmail.com

Feel free to listen to this episode as a stand alone, but if you're wanting to hear more from Jenn, go back to our previous episode to hear more.

In this episode we cover:

  • Diabetes management philosophies and technology that can be the most disordered to the most flexible
  • Why restriction is not a good idea with diabetes
  • Protein! What it does and why it's helpful
  • Living with a stigmatized condition as a health care provider
  • Using nutrition along with meds to get the best support
  • Being OK with not knowing the exact right answer (as a diabetes "expert" and as a person with diabetes)
  • How a sense of urgency is normalized in diabetes care and diet culture, and how to slow down the instinct and get to authentic choice and care
  • Using informed consent, self compassion, and professional support as part of your diabetes strategy.

We mention several resources including:

  • https://self-compassion.org/
  • Medical Students for Size Inclusivity document on Informed consent in diabetes care https://sizeinclusivemedicine.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/MSSI-GLP1-Informed-Consent-10.pdf?fbclid=IwY2xjawF_wppleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHenysmN_XwqFeZMt9ebBott-LiEtkfYmuQ0OFqhStsg_jg-hqp6C6rQYoA_aem_TYSGtVGOSiXoeCLemhas3A

Kelly: Does Diabetes Automatically Mean a Difficult Relationship With Food?]]>Today's episode is an interview of our very own podcast co-host, Kelly Six. We talk about using personal values to guide the balancing act of managing diabetes and food, how diabetes and your relationship to food can get easily entangled, and what makes a space safe when it comes to diabetes (and what makes it less helpful).

ABOUT US: We are two dietitians who specialize in diabetes care and eating disorders:

  • Kelly Six, MS, RD, CDCES, who really likes working in diabetes care because we get to have one foot in the nerdy side of diabetes and the other foot in the emotional side of living in the world with diabetes.
  • Erin Phillips, MPH, RD, CDCES, who really agrees with Kelly and couldn't have said it better herself. 
  • We both love cats, snacks, and laughing too loud in Seattle coffee shops.

Check it out here: https://www.erinphillipsnutrition.com/workbook and use this link to get 20% off.

In this episode, we talk with Beck (they/them), a trans, nonbinary 28-year-old, about their experience navigating a new diabetes diagnosis.

A couple of notes:

  • We recorded this back in DECEMBER, and then life got lifey! Better late than never, because we'd hate for you to miss out on this great interview!
  • Erin was sick when we recorded, so apologies for the cough drop sounds for our sensory sensitive friends!

In this episode we talk about:

  • How Beck navigated being diagnosed on the young side, and how to process guilt and shame after a diabetes diagnosis.
  • Finding a supportive care team to help you navigate a diabetes diagnosis.
  • Type 2 diabetes vs latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA, sometimes called type 1.5 diabetes), and navigating a shifting diagnosis.
  • Balancing eating disorder recovery with a new diabetes diagnosis.
  • How Beck adjusted their relationship with their CGM (continuous glucose monitor) to use it as a tool for support rather than a tool for punishment.
  • Ways that Beck found helpful to protect themself from weight stigma.

Julie: The Church and Diet Culture: Morality, Cleanliness, and the Promise of Transformation]]>In this episode we talk to Julie about her experience with Type 2 diabetes. She works as a fat positive counselor and yoga instructor.

In this episode we talk about

  • How providers treat body weight rather than your body which taught Julie how to lose weight rather than care for her diabetes.
  • How to learn how to advocate for yourself in medical institutions and where to get information on treatment options
  • How religion (Evangelicalism) and diet culture overlap; morality, purity, gender, and body control. Expectations to stick to the "good" and when you ultimately slip up with the "bad" you are taught to feel guilt and shame.
  • Living as a visibly able-bodied person as someone with multiple disabilities
