Takeaways
If that didn't make you just want to throw all concepts of diet culture out the window and start actually feeding yourself like you matter, then I don't know what will.
Prioritize your wellbeing and how that doesn't mean restriction.
We're not talking about punishment.
We're not talking about perfection.
It just means playing the long game with your energy, with your hormones and your joy.
In the long game, we don't eat less. We eat well.
We don't chase toned. We chase strong.
We sure as hell don't shrink ourselves to fit into this world.
We build ourselves up to get the strength to take up space.
Take this as your sign to fill up your plates, fill up your freezer, fill up your life with what actually sustains you.
That's the long game and we can make it disgustingly easy.
