Day 6 of conference attendance done and dusted! I was honoured to present my #phd #systematicreview findings on #eatingdisorders at the @dietitiansaus conference. It was amazing being able to see our profession grow in not only healthcare but other sectors. Now to take a nap 😴

It was a pleasure to present at the @ANZAED1 Conference last weekend! A big thank you to @FumiSomehara for inviting me to co-present a Cultural Considerations workshop, and to those who supported me in my oral presentation looking at #dietitians in #eatingdisorder treatment. #phd

Every time I find out that a doctor denies their fat client surgery until they get weight loss surgery, I want to scream. They’re ok giving anesthesia to amputate a healthy organ but can’t do a surgery to help their patient stop being in agonizing pain? Make it make sense. – at West Hollywood, CA

I’m terrible at the whole ‘Twitter thing’, but thought I should pop on and announce (late) THAT YOUR GIRL RECEIVED A PhD RESEARCH SCHOLARSHIP! Excited to be continuing with my work on eating disorders and now I’m only moderately financially terrified for the next 2 years 🤪

My honours paper got published!!!! 🤩 Thank you so much to my supervisors @ProfTBurrows and @DietitianChai for all their support, patience, and (insurmountable number of) edits. I could not have done it without you two!

Today, while lamenting about somehow knowing less about being a dietitian than when I started out, someone told me to google the Dunning-Kruger effect. At least now I know why I consistently feel more and more incompetent 🙃

Today I made sourdough rye bread and a cheeseboard to share with a friend! Safe to say we had enough food for two... 🤤

hello, it's me. I was wondering if we could stop praising adele's weight loss as if it's the best thing she has ever done. She is beautiful. She was beautiful. I hope she is happy and well, but I'm frightened by the "how she lost weight" posts

If you’re having a bad day, here’s a video of one of my cats trying to figure out if he likes blueberries. P.s his name is Alfred Pennyworth II (Alfie for short) #CatsOfTheQuarantine #CatsOfTwitter #CatsOnTwitter

SOOOOO EXCITED!!! My partner James and I published our first journal article! Here’s to hoping that we as practitioners can continue to learn about the field of #eatingdisorders and help our patients/clients reach better outcomes✌🏻#research #10yearplan shorturl.at/lxENZ

70% of older Australians are cancelling #dietitian appointments to isolate on Government instructions #COVID19Aus. Government MUST provide #telehealth access to #APDs to ensure continuation of care for these vulnerable Australians @GregHuntMP @richardmcolbeck @JulieCollinsMP
