Healthy At Every Size(HAES) is the belief that everyone, regardless of size, has the capacity to be healthy. The focus on a healthy lifestyle and not a lower number on the scale leads to longer sustainable well being. There are very few places in the country that you can go to get information about the HAES way of life. 

Elizabeth Smith, MS, RD, LDN is a registered Dietitian based out of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Secretary of the Pittsburgh Academy of Nutrition and Dietetic and a member of the Association for Size Diversity and Health.  She brings her incredible expertise to her new private practice Size Unseen Nutrition Counseling,  offering one on one strategy for choosing healthy foods to nourish your body and finding enjoyable movement your body craves.

FFFWEEK DETROIT CASTING CANCELLED FOR SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 22ND

Due to extreme weather conditions across the East Coast, most flights leaving NYC were extremely delayed or cancelled. After being at the airport for 8 hours, our flight was finally cancelled at 11:00 PM. Hence, we were unable to fly out of NYC this evening and will not be able to cast in Detroit tomorrow morning. Therefore, the Detroit casting for FFFWeek has been cancelled. It is our intent to make every reasonable effort to reschedule the Detroit casting at the end of the tour.

We sincerely apologize for this inconvenience and hope that we will be able to put Detroit back on the casting schedule in late March or April.

Thank you.
