| Jamie Magdic, RD, LDN, is the founder of Side By Side Nutrition, a group of fiercely passionate HAES, weight-inclusive, registered dietitians, in Arvada, Colorado. Jamie is passionate about providing accessible, expert, quality care to help people fully recover from disordered eating and to learn body trust and acceptance.
Specializing in eating disorders, disordered eating, and body image for adults and adolescents, Jamie envisions an inclusive, safe space where people struggling with food and body can permit themselves to open their life to more. By guiding them through their thoughts without judgment and encouraging them to find freedom and flexibility, Jamie helps clients stay open to the possibilities they deserve. She believes in a weight-inclusive approach that focuses on behaviors, not weight or numbers, as the key to lasting health. She helps her clients dismantle the food and body shame, identify triggers leading to self-doubt and relearn how to have a trusting relationship with food and body. |
“We’re here to help clients discover their value & worth beyond food, body, and the scale, so they can find health and wellness from a place of intuition versus external validation. By uncovering the food fears and body obsession that hold people back, our clients learn to find strength from their vulnerabilities and change their perspective of “fear & shame” to love and acceptance.”
