Posted @withregram • @beauty_redefined This excerpt from our book is really resonating with you and we LOVE TO SEE IT. We live in a world that cares more about how everyone else SEES girls and FEELS about their bodies and clothes than how girls SEE themselves and FEEL in their bodies and clothes. That should be 🔥infuriating🔥, but it's usually an invisible norm we all just live with because “that’s just the way things are.”
➕In “More Than a Body,” we describe the dangers of policing girls and women for dress code violations and teaching them to dress modestly as a protection for others. We also lay out the *solutions* for this widespread problem, including examples of dress codes and mindset reframes that allow people their full humanity.
✖️We have all been taught to see women as objects to be looked at, judged, used, and discarded. Where men are clearly seen as more than bodies, women are not afforded that humanity. As their looks are emphasized over all else, girls learn and re-learn to experience their bodies from a sexualized outside perspective – as objects to be looked at. She becomes an onlooker to herself, her own 24-hour body police, joining the rest of the world in enforcing our culture’s arbitrary and unachievable standards of beauty and attractiveness against herself. In the midst of this unyielding cycle of objectification, she is not only held accountable for how she presents herself, but for how she is *perceived.*
✖️We can do better. If we can learn to *see more* in everyone else, and remain accountable for our own thoughts & actions regardless of what anyone is wearing, we can *be more* as individuals and a society. When you objectify someone, you see them and treat them as less human than you. You are more prone to disrespect and harm them. You do the same to yourself when you value yourself for your parts over your humanity. And FYI, we’ve posted on the way the fashion industry sexualizes girls & women in previous posts.
➕MORE THAN A BODY by Lexie & Lindsay Kite, PhD, is available in hardcover, paperback, audiobook🎧, & Kindle📱anywhere you buy books (linked in bio & at morethanabody.org!)💗

Pasta and bread - two super nutritious foods that the crazy diet world we live in has many people convinced they shouldn’t eat for various reasons such as…

Weight gain - there is no one food that causes weight gain.

You can enjoy bread and pasta daily without it affecting your weight. Your body weight is also much more complex than what you eat or how much you move - which helps explain why it’s so difficult/next to impossible to lose weight long-term (without regaining) through changing diet.

Gut issues - while certainly some people can have an issue with wheat, I see many people who thought wheat was an issue and then when they changed their relationship with food, discovered they could eat wheat freely.

Feeling like you can’t eat certain food, especially something as common as wheat, can really mess with your relationship with food and make you overly anxious when eating out or socially. This heightened anxiety can then become the trigger for the gut symptoms regardless of what you eat.

While there is nothing wrong with doing this, it does not make you a healthier person than if you were to eat ordinary rice, noodles or pasta.

Enjoying regular rice and noodles can be just as healthy, if not healthier, if it means your relationship with food is such that you don’t ever feel bad eating them.

If you enjoy the cauliflower rice or zucchini more, or just as much, then go for it!

Making rice out of cauliflower, or noodles out zucchini, is not healthier than enjoying regular rice or noodles

(Yep - Noom is exactly what a diet is. The fact they claim not to be and say they focus on psychology just shows either how little they understand - or how far they are willing to go to dupe their customers and only care about $$$ - Zoe)

Posted @withregram • @drjoshuawolrich NOOM IS A BOG STANDARD DIET TRYING SO HARD TO CONVINCE YOU IT’S NOT.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here’s just one prime example of it’s nonsense. It classifies nuts, one of the healthiest and most nutritious foods, as ‘red’… meaning that you should restrict them. Diet culture doesn’t care about health, it just cares about calories, because weight loss is the only measure of success that it accepts.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Rejecting diet culture includes calling out bullshit apps like Noom… which is basically MyFitnessPal in a cheap wig.

Made one of my favourite dishes last night - Thai Green Curry! (with fish)

To follow on from yesterday’s post, what if we taught kids these things…
- why are Thai eggplants so different to Mediterranean eggplants?
- what is lemongrass and how do you prepare it?
- what are chillies hot?

My partner Brett is starting a new career as a photographer and this is his first foray into food photography.

First image is some of the ingredients in the green curry and the finished product is in 2nd pic (slide left) - it was delicious!!

I’d love you to check (and like) his Instagram

More and more I am hearing about how young children and teenagers, who through learning about nutrition at school, are starting to see foods as either good or bad, or healthy/unhealthy, with little to no understanding of the nuance of nutrition. Food becomes something they feel why need to monitor or something they fear - often in the context of weight gain or being “too big”.

These kids start to restrict so called “bad” or ”unhealthy” food, or feel bad about themselves for eating them and relate this to their body size. Many kids, regardless of their size, feel their bodies are “too big”. This is a recipe for developing disordered eating behaviours or an eating disorder.

Kids are learning to see food as carbohydrate, sugar, fat, rather than a wonderful part of their existence that not only provides nourishment, but also a pleasure to the senses, and a key part of connecting with other people and exploring the world.

WE SHOULD NOT BE TEACHING KIDS ABOUT NUTRITION

Instead, let's teach them about food, where it comes from, the different cuisines from different cultures, along with the joy of exploring food, cooking and sharing food with others

Posted @withregram • @yrfatfriend Our two most recent episodes of @maintenancephase have been big ones, challenging ones, and personally important ones.

Both episodes—one on the Body Mass Index and one on the “Obesity Epidemic”—are out now wherever you get your podcasts. If you haven’t listened yet, I hope you will. ♥️

Many of my clients have expressed how they’re almost dreading the inevitable diet and weight talk that will be there as their families gather for Christmas Day.

It can be helpful to realise that many, if not most of these family and friends will have their own struggle with food and body and they are just doing what our culture has taught them. I doubt any intend to, or even realise, they may cause harm to others.

If you are someone who has stepped outside of diet culture, the typical and seemingly harmless diet and body talk may appear so much louder and so much more frustrating.

You don’t have to say or do anything, you can just sit back and not engage, leave the room if you can and maybe go and hang out with your dog (I have one client who plans to do this) 🥰

But if you want to say something, then hopefully the next few slides will give you some ideas!

We need to change the mindset towards food and diets in the dance industry!

Reposted from @ddd_centre_for_recovery

With shows followed by the holiday, it's the time of the year where restrictive urges can become very strong.

Eating more is vital to accommodate the extra work that comes with performance and to facilitate recovery.

Often, dancers feel strong guilt and embarrassment for eating more, when their teachers and directors are opposed to this fundamental dance nutrition strategy.

So thank you to all the dance teachers and directors out there who are encouraging their dancers to eat more. It's needed. And every single encouragement you give, doesn't go unnoticed.
