Remember- as we enter 2024, Diet Culture is a scam.
Health is not determined by your weight alone;
health comes in many weights;
Looking good comes in many weights;
Feeling good comes many weights;
Happiness comes in many weights;
weight is not a sign of virtue;
health is not a sign of virtue;
Food is a gift.
Your body has carried you through another year.
On the first day of 2024, eat something delicious, clean something cluttered, do something outside, do something you've been putting off. But you keep that fucking diet culture bullshit out of your mouth and out of your mind.
💖 Enjoy 123123!

The amount of self-fatphobia I encounter in my female friends regarding holiday treats is too damn high and it pisses me off. Twice this week I have told friends that it's okay to eat more in the winter (or when the fuck ever) because we are mammals and that's what we're supposed to do and both of them were like, "Teehee oh that's a great excuse!" And I'm like NO IT'S TRUE your body is responding to rhythms deeper than our modern concept of shame and it's absolutely fine to honor them and listen to your body! You don't need to generate some excuse in order to justify eating and being hungry and enjoying food.
I have had to do so much self-work regarding food and permission to eat and learning to be okay with enjoying food beyond its purpose as mere fuel. Like that was such a huge part of my recovery. My nutritionist once held my hand while I ate cheesecake and cried. And every time I encounter (milder versions of) those same food-phobic fat-shaming feelings in people I love I want to burn down the whole world because WHY ARE WE MADE TO FEEL LIKE THIS!?
Can we as a society just. Shut. The. Fuck. Up. about dieting and thinness and the morality of certain body shapes and just live in these physical bodies with their needs and desires and cravings!?!??

Pressuring anyone to diet or lose weight is abusive, regardless of whether that person is your partner, your friend, or a complete stranger to you. Apparently, a lot of people in the community are genuinely unaware of this. But an even greater and alarming number of people out there just pretend to be unaware of this fact so they don’t feel guilty about fat-shaming and food policing someone they claim to care about. 🧐

A few years back I stumbled across intuitive eating/no food rules stuff on Instagram and had a startling moment of "this actually seems legit? this is a non-insane approach to food?" which means a lot to me as someone who needs instruction on how to not be insane.
So I heard the theory that if you want to stop bingeing on a food every time you have access to it, you should just... let yourself have as much as you want. Obviously this only works for certain things, and a more careful approach to this would be more helpful for many people. But I like to live dangerously so I just started buying chips whenever I wanted chips.
(You would not believe how much I like a potato chip. It is a notable feature of my personality.)
I let myself eat the whole bag of chips. I could open a second bag if I wanted to, though I don't think I ever got more than three chips into the second bag before going urgh. The only restriction on how many chips I could have was my willingness to acquire chips.
Slowly the bag of chips went from lasting thirty minutes, to lasting the day, to lasting two days. Now I have a (clipped-shut) bag of chips on my desk that I opened on NYE and I don't really want any. I know they taste incredible but every I eat one I go "blerh."
The best part of this whole thing is that I can just keep chips in the cupboard now. When I actually want chips, I can simply go to the cupboard and get them, because past-Ruin did not eat them immediately. When I'm nauseous and nothing else sounds edible, there are chips in the cupboard waiting for me!!

Some day, people will look back at the fatphobia, built around mere correlations, in the same way people used to believe tomatoes were poisonous.
Being fat is the tomato, being fatphobic is the plate coated in lead

I am once again pissed at diet culture. I just watched three tiktoks in a row. how to cook dairyfree. How to meal prep without carbs. How to make healthy snacks without sugar. I keep getting (and stupidly clicking on) those articles that are like "ten things you shouldn't eat if you want to lose weight" and "why xy foods are bad for you" and wouldn't you know it last week i got recommendated articles that said those specific foods were super healthy and great for weight loss and now i should "never eat" them?? Is there any food we're still allowed to eat without being made to feel guilty?

i hate you plastic surgeons on social media who speculate about what work celebrities and influencers have had done. i hate you celebrities and influencers who pump their faces and bodies with fillers and/or get surgery after surgery, then proceed to lie about it all for years, crediting some bullshit weight loss tea or dumb workout routine or ‘holy grail’ beauty product. i hate you fashion brands who make their clothes to suit a very specific body type that only a small percent of people have and only carry a small range of sizes bc, fuck it, they feel like it.
i hate you diet companies for pushing unrealistic standards, promising unrealistic results, targeting mostly young women and girls, and just straight up lying to people in much of your advertising. i hate you social media (especially fucking instagram) for pushing a bullshit, unrealistic beauty standard and telling us that we all have to meet it or else we’re ugly and unlovable. i hate you “legging legs” and “body by ozempic” and “buccal fat removal” and “bbl body” and “heroin chic,” i hate you body type trends.
i hate you people who feel the fucking need to incessantly comment on the foods people eat and their body size and tell them that “that’s so unhealthy” as if they don’t already fucking know that!! just let them fucking enjoy their goddamn meal and feel comfortable in their own skin!!! it’s not that fucking hard!!! i hate you skincare companies that market your anti-aging products to teenage girls and women in their twenties. i hate you doctors who refuse to take women, trans people, people of color, fat people, and those who belong to two or more of those identities seriously when they come to you with their health issues.
i hate you politicians for turning something as simple as preferred pronouns into ammunition for your bullshit ideological warfare that you use to distract from the fact that many of your constituents can’t even afford to live and that, currently, you are working as hard as you possibly can to strip our rights away and set us back decades upon decades. i hate you news stations who would rather focus on celebrities and their lavish fashion and their lavish events and their lavish PR stunts than the genocides and geopolitical conflicts in Palestine, Sudan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Artsakh, etc.

in regards to this, was anyone else sold the "4 white deaths" lie for food ??
basically, you should avoid the 4 worst food ingredients, which are flour, salt, sugar, and fat (grease), because they are bad for you.
what a way to tell people not to eat the 4 MOST ESSENTIAL foods for us.
