Body size is NOT a disease. There are so many things that affect our well being! Chronic stress is a better predictor of whether somebody develops heart disease than weight is. And living in a larger body is STRESSFUL because of the rampant and socially acceptable fatphobia in our society. It’s not fat that kills, it’s fatphobia.
Weight loss is also often extremely dangerous. When we malnourish our bodies it jeopardizes our mental and physical health and can often be fatal. So, if we ACTUALLY valued wellbeing as a society, we wouldn’t be promoting weight loss as the cure-all.
The studies proclaiming the benefits of weight loss and the perils of fatness leave this out - weight loss is NOT sustainable. Also those studies are often written by pharmaceutical corporations selling weight loss drugs (that don’t work) for profit!! 😠THEY ARE GREEDY AND THEY FEED OFF OF FATPHOBIA AND US FEELING SHITTY ABOUT OUR BODIES! 😠
✨Dieting and weight loss goes totally against our brain’s wiring of KEEPING US ALIVE AND FUNCTIONING!✨
Weight cycling (when somebody loses weight bc they’re engaging in ED behaviors, gains it back because weight loss is not something the body can sustain and our survival mechanisms kick in when we attempt to starve ourselves, and then loses weight again bc society tells us that we’re failing as a human if we can’t lose weight and then the cycle repeats) is actually associated with a higher risk of death AND is associated with heart disease, diabetes, and cancer.
📢 FATNESS IS NOT DANGEROUS, DIET CULTURE IS. 📢
ASK YOURSELF THIS QUESTION: who benefits from the idea that fat people are unhealthy?
ANSWER: the diet industry (mostly run by rich, white, cis hetero men) and literally nobody else
There is nothing wrong with you if you are struggling with an ED/if you want to lose weight. That makes TOTAL sense in a society that values thinness over all else. Knowing this stuff doesn’t necessarily make recovery any easier!

Friendly reminder that there is such thing as healthy weight gain, which is not talked about enough in the anti-HEAS community.
I have always been a smaller person and still am, but since changing my workouts to be strength based, I have gained lean muscle, which means I have put on a few pounds of weight.
THAT IS NOT A BAD THING.
That is true healthy weight gain, that was supported through movement, discipline and a healthy varied diet.
So if you are smaller, and find yourself putting on a little bit of muscle weight when you start working out differently, that does not mean you are getting unhealthy, and sometimes people need a reminder of that :)

You're made up of chemicals and so are the foods you eat and the water (H2O) you drink.
Sure, you could say that a banana is natural because it wasn't made by humans (although it kind of was through selective breeding) but it's still made up of chemicals. Typically when people say something is 'natural' they mean 'without chemicals' and that's not accurate.
If someone is selling you a 'natural' product or food, it's definitely full of chemicals. Regardless of the product.
Also, 'natural' things aren't always 'good', and added chemicals aren't always 'bad'. While I was doing some reading, I found this great article by canadianfoodfocus.org that brought up a good point: E.Coli is natural and can cause severe sickness or death whereas adding synthetic vitamins to foods has helped the population's health in many ways.
Labeling foods as 'natural' is misleading and contributes to moralizing food which is harmful.
In the end, it's pretty amazing that everything is made up of tiny little particles. (can you tell I'm taking science classes at the moment? haha)

My journey won’t be the same as yours. Some things may resonate more to one person than another. I share posts during recovery with things I have found helpful. If it helps someone else great. If it doesn’t help you, that’s fine. But you have the choices of what is and isn’t harmful. I know that I am very careful with who I follow. A person who talks about eating disorder recovery and weight loss at the same time is not someone I intend to follow. They likely have a lot of their own healing, fat bias to conquer. Take what’s helpful to you leave the rest. #bodypositivity #doctorsmentalhealthmatters #eatingdisorderrecovery #edrecovery #eatingdisordersurvivor #eatingdisorderawareness #antidiet #antidietculture #bodyacceptance #anorexianervosarecovery #anorexiafighter #anorexiaawareness #atypicalanorexia #atypicalanorexiaisanorexia #atypicalanorexiarecovery #bulimia #bulimiarecovery #bulimiafighter #bingeeatingrecovery #orthorexia #orthorexiarecovery #arfidrecovery #osfedrecovery #hypothalamicamenorrhearecovery #hypothalamicamenorrhea #fatstigma #weightstigma #ditchdietculture #fuckeatingdisorders #fuckanorexianervosa https://www.instagram.com/p/CQmeNHRJFkG/?utm_medium=tumblr

New year, new me? 🤔
Diet culture might use that common saying to make you believe now is the best time to change your lifestyle.
It’ll make you believe that the answer to “new year, new you” is some diet.
But what’s wrong with the current you, anyway?
Before you jump on to the latest fad diet, take some time to sit with the question of why you want to go on a diet in the first place. Is it because you want to change something about you? Are the voices your own or that of diet culture?
Growth is beautiful, but don’t force yourself to change something about yourself just because society (and diet culture) tells you to.

❕💌❕ there are so many times I still need to remind myself that no two bodies are the same. your hunger cues will differ from your friends or partners cues — and very often, even from your own on a day-to-day basis. so, if you’ve eaten more than your friends/partner, or you’ve eaten more today than you did yesterday, remember that that’s normal. don’t punish yourself for it. instead, give yourself a pat on the back or a little self-five for listening to what your body needed today. #edrecovery #eatingdisorderrecovery #antidietculture #dietculturedropout #intuitiveeating #foodislove #hungercues #selflove https://www.instagram.com/p/CQjVwUGh42e/?utm_medium=tumblr

I work in a gym and sometimes, I see people come in for a workout and after I finish training 2 clients (1 hour sessions) and taking a break, they're still there.
Of course, I don't know their situation. They might be an athlete. But I know a lot of people think a longer workout is more beneficial when in fact, you can get a very effective workout in just 30 minutes.
If you're not an athlete or, say, a long distance runner and you're an average person moving your body, your workouts don't need to surpass an hour an a half.
A 5 minute workout is also great! So does standing up and doing a couple stretches!

This was the first diet soft drink, it was created for diabetics and then mass marketed for weight loss.

You can’t hate or force yourself into a body you think you’re going to love. Self love is more than loving your self image. The idea of being happy once you’re a certain size or weight is a lie, your body is deserving of love and respect no matter what diet culture says.
