I recommend saying this if you want to make the office kitchen awkward and watch people laugh uncomfortably while they try to enjoy a bagel. It’s a guaranteed way to make folks feel bad for indulging in life's little pleasures.👍👍👍
Honestly, I don’t know how diet culture became a competition of who can have the most unregulated eating habits :(—it’s not a flex. It just creates shame. My best advice? Eyes on your own plate. Encourage others, set boundaries, and remember: food choices are personal, and they’re theirs alone

and focusing instead on making reasonably healthy, self-compassionate, consistent choices and moving your body in ways that make you feel good.
We’re assaulted with numbers, data, and metrics everywhere else in life why let it creep into your relationship with food and your body!!! It takes time and practice to do this right and find balance without descending into total uninhibited hedonism but it can be freeing to live this way. Controversial perhaps…

If you’re hungry but questioning how “healthy” a food or meal is—but the alternative is that you don’t eat at all—that food or meal is healthy by default. Eat!
(former nutritionist who often has to say this to myself too, as chronic illness increases the risk of disordered eating and just being hella stressed doesn’t help either)

In accordance with the Kar-Jenner global agenda, capitalistic cycle and general hatred of women fomented by American culture, looking extremely skinny and gaunt is back in fashion. For most bodies, achieving this look necessitates caloric restriction which is painful, addictive and sucks from life all its glory and joy. It also, over time, leaves people with anxiety around normal social stuff, like going to restaurants and eating in front of friends. As someone who wasted way too many years of my life feeling this particular brand of anxiety, I am here to tell you, it’s not worth it. Kate Moss said nothing tastes as good as skinny feels, but she was wrong. Nothing tastes as good as freedom from obsessing about food feels. Also emaciation makes you look old and weak. Also if you are restricting to address areas of stubborn fat, you are running a fool’s errand. Liposuction is for areas of stubborn fat. It removes fat cells permanently, is an easy to finance outpatient procedure, and many places don’t even put you to sleep for it.

If you are passionate about your hip mobility and amazing sleep, please, SLEEP ON THIS. We have been together for probably two years. And I don’t give a shit how goofy she looks. She changed my life. I don’t have any back pain and I don’t have any hip pain. I do other things to work on those issues, but SHE is the biggest contributor to the solution.

Wendy’s Subway was one of the first "third places" I stumbled into after moving to NYC. It’s tucked away like some secret lair, and it's so beautiful in that "this-doesn't-fit-anywhere-else" way. It does so much, you can't really explain what it is. So I just call it a third place. You know, the kind of spot you go when you don’t want to hit a bar (because I don't drink) or pay for something (because... money). I go there to read, flip through a zine on some obscure political issue, or dive into a bi-weekly poetry writing event. It's so freakin' quiet and it'll let your brain take a nap. Do yourself a favor and go. Find community here. But check their website for hours/events first.
