Challenging the BMI: Body Mass Index or Body Myth Insanity? 
Dr. Margo Maine

In this webinar, Dr. Margo Maine, clinical psychologist, challenges our nearly religious reliance on the BMI in attempts to prevent or treat eating disorders. Reviewing the lack of scientific basis for the BMI, Dr. Maine illustrates how our culture’s obsession with thinness and dieting has contributed to the exponential and global increase of eating disorders. Demonstrating that the current fascination with the Body Mass Index is based far less on science and much more on this Body Myth Insanity, Dr. Maine challenges the audience to join her in converting her (well-justified) anger regarding this misuse of science that the ensuing damage to our health into the service of love, through activism and advocacy. This webinar was offered as part of National Eating Disorders Awareness Week 2012.

What People Are Saying About Our Webinars

"Thank you so much for the informative, eye opening, and action packed webinar! My mind could not keep up with all the information but took 12 pages of notes...I think I am hooked and will join as many webinars about girls, as possibly boys for comparison, as possible. Great work you are doing for today's girls and tomorrow's women!" –Karen, Isabella Child Care

"The webinar on Packaging Boyhood had great information!  I applaud Hardy Girls for including a segment about boys.  Society is affected adversely by all gender stereotypes, not just those of girls and women.  Change will be fostered as we bring these issues closer together.  Thank you for the great work you do." Elin, Writer
