Transformation Weight Control Podcast
Welcome to the weekly Transformation Weight Control Podcast!
We’ve been helping people lose weight for over 25 years. Before that, in the 44th year of my career, I’ve been deeply involved in creating and directing leading evidence-based, medically supervised weight loss programs and research at hospitals and clinics in New York City.
Our mission—with both TWC and this podcast—is to deliver the most up-to-date, trustworthy, and relevant information available. We all know that health and weight loss information online can be overwhelming and often unreliable. That won’t be the case here.
Together with my co-host Alex Tushinsky, we’ll speak with true experts in their fields. Our goal is to bring you accurate, evidence-based conversations you can trust—and that will help you make informed decisions for losing weight, keeping it off, and your health, just like what we’ve always done at TWC.
We’re excited to share this journey with you and are committed to bringing you nothing but the truth about what really works. If there’s a topic you’d like us to explore, let us know—we’re here for you.
We look forward to bringing these podcasts to you!

Rethinking Food and Eating for Weight Loss with Jennifer Stack, MS, RDN, CDE
In this engaging conversation, Rich and Alex speak with Jennifer Stack, MS, RDN, CDE, and explore the multifaceted relationship between food, health, and emotions.
In addition to Jennifer's expert nutrition credentials, experience, and education, she is also a graduate with honors and a full-time Professor at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY, the premier culinary college in the world!
Alex, Rich, and Jennifer discuss the importance of flavor in healthy eating, the psychological aspects of food consumption, and the impact of portion sizes on eating habits. Jennifer emphasizes the need for food to be both nutritious, a source of fuel for the body (like the gasoline you put in your car), and delicious, advocating for a mindful approach to eating that engages all of your senses.
The discussion also touches on the challenges of food insecurity and the therapeutic potential of cooking as a means to address emotional issues related to food. Overall, the conversation offers valuable insights into how individuals can transform their relationship with food to achieve better health and well-being.
