“I am a researcher studying both eating disorders and obesity. As long as Black women continue to be entrapped by sickness from chronic disease, I see the need to be in both places…” — @DrRachelGoode link.medium.com/OYzvEm6MKnb

It's that time of year! Time to apply for the @uncceed Summer Research Fellowship. Applications due December 2 2024. Read more here: med.unc.edu/psych/eatingdi… Spread the word!

*Officially* recruiting for my dissertation! Arab/MENA women are sorely underrepresented in the psychological literature, including eating disorders. If you identify as an Arab/MENA woman, please consider participating in a focus group study. $50 gift card upon completion!

I’m so thankful to Black women. I shared the post that I am looking for at least 100 Black women to fill out my survey. I only had 31. In the past 24 hours, Black women have shown up and showed out! I’m now up to 70. If you haven’t filled out this survey here is the link: fis82j57ioj.typeform.com/to/Nx2FbbeB?ty…

My goodness. What a moment of pure beauty. nytimes.com/2024/07/30/opi…

If we Christians won’t at least consider what it does to our witness for Jesus when the world sees viral Christian outrage over the Olympics, but not over Sonya Massey, hungry school kids, or a politician hawking Bibles, we aren’t taking our faith as seriously as we think we are.

Trump: “Christians, get out and vote! Just this time. You won’t have to do it anymore. Four more years. You know what? It’ll be fixed! It’ll be fine! You won’t have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians. I love you, Christians! I’m a Christian”

BREAKING: The Kamala Harris campaign just released their first ad. Retweet to make sure every American knows who Kamala Harris is and what is at stake this November.

We’re gonna win this for you, Shirley. ☝🏽

It was an honor to write for the @uncceed blog, Exchanges, on how Arab/MENA Americans are positioned in psychological research; and namely, how the simultaneous invisibility and hyper-visibility (per previous scholars) of Arab/MENA folks perpetuates health disparities.

@_ablackguy Thanks for sharing your heart with us. Thinking of you today. I’m so saddened to hear the news about your sister.

My sister passed away this afternoon. She was a fighter & fought cancer with everything she had, to say I’m proud of her is an understatement. Back in February the doctors gave her only a few hours to live but she beat the odds & even made it to her 24th bday. Love you sis ❤️

Knowing there was a shortage of article reviewers during and after 2020, I decided to say yes to every article review request I felt qualified to do. I've now reviewed nearly a dozen and have some random insights to share, mostly for grad students and early career folks.

80% of weight loss come from your nutrition. But most people don’t know there are simple ways to hack your eating to get better results. Here are 21 eating hacks that will lead to greater fat loss:

@SarahRoMD @ConscienHealth @sciam Yes, that is the result of our culture putting so much emphasis on weight loss. We have find a way to help these patients trust hunger again and manage their obesity.

@ConscienHealth @sciam Agree. But some patients are confusing food noise with hunger. Hunger is the body's cue to get regular nourishment that our bodies need. Seeing inappropriate use of these powerful drugs to shut down hunger cues all together & pts only focusing on # lbs. This is wrong

The realization that #GLP1s can improve lives by silencing #FoodNoise gives us pause to think. What are the #PublicHealth implications of silencing food noise? HT: @sciam conscienhealth.org/2024/06/food-n…

@KP4PubHealth Oh how I wish I had somebody to turn to sis! That question! I was trying to lock eyes with somebody, lol

@DrRachelGoode It was all of “our” faces during that one question for me. 😂

Dr. Cerdeña said what she said! 👏🏾 she did a great job identifying racism and the root of disparities and offered legit and better ways to capture the actual determinants of diabetes risk.

I had a great time at my first in-person #ADASciSessions! Great to see old friends, and meet new colleagues and scholars. See you all next year!

@sonyiarich So glad he will be a part of us @sonyiarich!!

9 years ago today, these 9 human beings were murdered in a white supremacist terrorist attack inside Mother Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina. Never forget. Educate for change. Be for truth & love. I’m praying for the families & friends of the beloved #Emanuel9.
