We're back with our first real, researched episode of the year! Lucky episode 13! As promised, we're doing Diets 2: 2 Dieting 2 Survive this episode and talking about the ugly alter ego of diets: disordered eating. The girls talk about what disordered eating is as well as why it's so common. It's pretty depressing!
CW: MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR CW ALERT ALERT!! We are obviously talking about the act of disordered eating as well as eating disorders but there are also several very real and very personal conversations about how diet culture has affected the girls and how they have engaged in harmful patterns and relationships around food. In addition we try to lighten the mood with a few jokes which may be uncomfortable or not funny to certain listeners. If you think this might be you: Sorry! Please don't listen! We hear you and we agree!
