Ah, Body Image... what a complex conversation to be had. There are so many layers to body image and we each have different trauma and trigger responses around it.
We weren't born with anxiety about what our bodies look like... or with chronic overwhelm, worrying about what others might think of our appearance. We have learned all of that (consciously and unconsciously) through the world we live in.
If we hadn't experienced body image trauma before, then we wouldn't be fearfully anxious about what size or shape our bodies are. We wouldn't even think twice about what others thought about our bodies. We would be fully happy with the body we have and we'd just eat whatever we wanted without weight loss or weight gain even entering our minds... imagine that!
So it's clear that most of us (from the research I've done and continue to do, I'd guestimate around 80% of women in the world) suffer from body image trauma. AKA the way they think their body looks is significantly negatively affecting their lives (and most likely their relationship with food).
