Keep Your Money
I’m starting to like/hate my diet culture holiday season song: fa$la$la$la$la$la$la$la$laaaa
Your body is not a problem.
Your body is not a problem.
Your body is not a problem.
Questioning the validity of this statement? Follow the money.
New Year gym membership: $40
New Year detox: $100
New Year diet: (that has been repeated, every year for decades? Or that you’re considering for the first time?) $50-$5,000 or more
New Year elimination/replacement of a food with something ‘clean:’ add $20+ to your grocery cost
New Year, New You ‘wellness’ plan by Goop or some other nonsense program: an insultingly large amount of $$$
Resisting diet culture pressure, not paying into the system
Practicing body acceptance
Advocating for weight inclusive care
HAES® informed eating disorder support
Celebration of body diversity
Recognition of health as a privilege
Working to identify and reduce disparity
Asking less of oppressed humans
PRICELESS
If something is being sold with the promise of peace, love, and joy, on the heels of body change, keep your money.
Your body is not a problem.
That concept is what makes the $70B diet culture world go round...☮
