“Rebecca Thinks” is my personal playground for sharing my thoughts, experiences, and opinions as a nutrition, exercise, and wellness expert. You’ll likely find me talking about behavior issues related to staying healthy and happy (eating well, exercise, and stress management). You’ll also find me ranting on current events from health-related policies to the next crazy diet scheme (and why I don’t like it) to body image issues, especially in marketing and media.

It’s also a place where I will share my latest TV appearances, interviews, and articles I’ve written. I also like to post recipes I’ve tried or new recipes I have made up from time to time.

    • Weight-loss Frauds top FTC survey — excerpt from Consumer Health Digest
      I’ve been an advocate for intuitive eating and take a weight-neutral, non-diet approach with all my clients. I’d rather help someone make changes they can maintain forever instead of promising a “quick fix” that would likely lead to weight cycling. It’s about self-care after all. I saw this article in a recent Consumer Health Digest e-newsletter […] […]
