Prosecutors said she was on a “mission of death” when she turned into “hell on wheels,” slamming the gas pedal to the floor and reaching speeds of nearly 100 mph before crashing into a brick wall, killing 20-year-old Dominic Russo and his 19-year-old friend Davion Flanagan. Shirilla was handed two prison sentences of 15 years to life behind bars.

Today's episode will explore two representations of Diana’s experience within the royal family, both that touch specifically on her bulimia. Listen to my thoughts on the portrayal of Diana in both Netflix's "The Crown" and Pablo Larrain's "Spencer". Both of the representations I will discuss include spoilers and might be triggering for some.

Yet what “body” means carries so much more depth, so therefore it is a story about the several thousand things other than the body that contribute to the formation of the body. In this review, I discuss Gay's desire to live beyond her body, the gendered politics in taking up space, and how the weight of trauma is a permanent mark, impossible to lose. Bibliography (show notes):https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/14/books/review/hunger-a-memoir-of-my-body-roxane-gay.htmlhttps://www.newyorker.com/books/page-turner/roxane-gays-complicated-hungerhttps...2021-12-2428 minPeace MealPeace MealEpisode 66: A Compilation of Advice for Those Doubting RecoveryEpisode description:  In this special holiday episode, we have compiled some powerful insights on recovery from several of our 2021 guests who have experienced it themselves. Throughout the year, we asked our podcast guests with a personal eating disorder story this question: “What would you tell someone listening who believes recovery isn’t possible for them?” This episode features some of the answers we received in response.  Many of our guests share how they once thought that recovery wasn’t possible for them as well, but every little step they made toward healing was so important. While acknowledging how challenging recovery can be, the...2021-12-2200 minHeavier Than I LookHeavier Than I LookSet Point Theory & BMISetpoint theory describes a theory of weight maintenance in which one’s weight is genetically predetermined in a preferred range, explaining that your body will do what it must in order to maintain this range. Diets fail because our bodies and our weights are genetically pre-determined, unable to be commodified by the harmful BMI metric, which ignores several crucial details in calculating a person's relative health. This episode dives deep into both of these concepts and their standing in the medical field, uncovering significant chasms of misleading information.  Bibliography (show notes): Chris...2021-12-1713 minHeavier Than I LookHeavier Than I LookThe Transexperience of Eating DisordersTransgender individuals are four times more likely than their cisgender female counterparts to self-report an ED diagnosis, two times as likely to report ED symptomology, and have significantly higher rates of attempted or successful suicide. Thus, EDs in the trans community are horrifically rampant and especially dangerous. A transgender individual may develop an ED to create gendered features and conform to a masculine or feminine societal ideal. All of us who have suffered from or witnessed an ED in any capacity know how tied up to body image it is. Considering that transgender people live in a b...2021-12-1014 minHeavier Than I LookHeavier Than I LookSeeing Yourself AgainIn the brutal lens of an ED, seeing yourself in a mirror or in pictures can be incredibly triggering. This is one of the pitfalls of self-objectification during the eating disorder, where we are ruled by parts of ourselves and how they measure up to a thin ideal. This lens at which we view ourselves does not automatically change the day we decide we want to get help. At any point during recovery (most especially physical recovery), seeing our bodies transform for health can be challenging. This episode focuses on how we confront our image again, prioritizing recovery, self-respect...2021-12-0324 minHeavier Than I LookHeavier Than I LookVanity Sizing & Clothing As TriggerVanity sizing is a phenomenon that explains size labels being labeled as smaller than their actual, true size. This is thought to preserve the dignity of smaller numbers, in which most customers feel more confident, given our society’s overwhelming dependence on self-value defined numerically. Understandably, situations of ill-sizing can affect one's emotional well-being and self-esteem, especially if it is during a fragile state of attempted recovery. And especially if you might exist in a larger body, inflation sizing reflects the ideology that smaller bodies (and numbers for defining those bodies) are more desirable. Bibliography (sho...2021-11-2624 minHeavier Than I LookHeavier Than I LookOur Beliefs, from Prison to Freedom (ft.

By choosing a lifestyle that makes recovery easier, instead of relying on willpower, she has the mental energy to live freely again.2021-11-2052 minHeavier Than I LookHeavier Than I LookMegan‘s Story (Part One)Megan Rogers, a senior at the University of Notre Dame studying marketing and anthropology, charts her journey through an eating disorder and ADHD diagnosis. She speaks of early memories of using food as self-medication to manage dopamine dysregulation. The need for stimulation and hyper fixation that characterizes Megan's ADHD manifested into many beautiful outcomes, but also into several eating disorders, including orthorexia and bulimia. Her ultimate belief is that ADHD is a superpower if it can be channeled in the right way.

It is not classified as symptomatic of an eating disorder, despite these disorders’ shared core feature of disturbed body image.

Most studies demonstrate upwards of 95 percent of those with a documented eating disorder (ED) fit the criteria for a functional gut disorder (FGD) and upwards of 50 percent for Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). In this episode, we discuss how digestive issues differ in types of EDs and how the trauma caused by an ED may predisposed one to develop a FGD. I also discuss my recent diagnosis of IBS and how healing has become infinitely more complicated with concomitant disorders.  ...2021-04-0129 minHeavier Than I LookHeavier Than I LookMales & Eating DisordersEating disorders are largely characterized as feminine, and thus males or omitted from research, diagnosis, and treatment.

Today’s episode discusses her tragic life and death, in conversation with Todd Haynes’ film entitled “Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story”. Our cultural response to her suffering and eventual death is heightened because of her perceived untouchability and her very existence as a spectacle who is exploited by the media. Carpenter’s life was in and of itself its own screen at which to view anorexia; an object to gawk at, trivialize, and dehumanize.  2021-03-1620 minHeavier Than I LookHeavier Than I LookEating Disorders in Mid-lifeThe danger of the reductive eating disorder image is never more apparent when discussing EDs in midlife and beyond. Because an aging body is increasingly more inflexible when facing physical damage, the risks associated with an ED are heightened. Dangers include disruption of heart function, diminishing cognitive ability, and osteoporosis (among others). All risks may be precluded or worsened by disordered eating and often overshadow the incidence of EDs, making detection and diagnosis more difficult.  Bibliography (show notes):“Causes of Middle-Aged Women Eating Disorders.” Eating Disorder Hope, 30 June 2017, www.eatingdisorderhope.com/treatment-for-eating-disorders/special-issues/older...2021-03-1218 minHeavier Than I LookHeavier Than I LookRace-Based Stereotypes in ED Treatment and DiagnosisEating disorders can reach anyone, yes. But eating disorder treatment does not. Cultural messaging, such as that motivated by media and film, perpetuate an ED stereotype: you must be a white, young, thin, affluent female to be deserving of an eating disorder. Racial and ethnic minority groups such as Hispanic/Latinx Americans, African Americans, Native Americans, and Asian Americans essentially become a blind spot in Eating Disorder research, diagnosis, and recovery.

This episode is concluded with a Q&A directed by questions from listeners. 2020-11-0857 minHeavier Than I LookHeavier Than I LookEvolutionary Theories of Eating DisordersEating disorder treatment is largely ineffective. Our understanding of how to treat EDs is limited because the etiology is not well understood. This week's episode attempts to understand the "why" of EDs through an evolutionary lens. We discuss theories such as the intrasexual competition hypothesis, reductive suppression hypothesis, adapted to flee famine hypothesis, thrifty genotype hypothesis, dual intervention point model, and a psychoneuroimmunological approach. All theories explain EDs as a response to a threat and identifying this threat is critical to inform our treatment practices in recovery. 2020-11-0153 minHeavier Than I LookHeavier Than I LookRecovery & RelapseWhat does live worth living mean to you? Finding meaning and worthiness of life does not have an expiration date. It is instead a life-long quest that one begins when deciding to recover from an ED. Although recovery looks different for each eating disorder survivor, each generally undergoes 5 stages, multiple "modes" of recovery (including physical, relational, psychological, and behavioral), and must address co-occurring disorders if applicable. Recovery requires kinship and self-forgiveness, especially if one relapses into destructive behavior. These themes, in addition to how to make peace with weight change, are topics discussed in this episode. 2020-10-2554 minHeavier Than I LookHeavier Than I LookEating Disorders During QuarantineFrom the rigid social confinement to food insecurity to weight-stigmatizing media messaging, 2020 has been a breeding ground for eating disorders. Specifically, eating disorders thrive in isolation. How might this truth be witnessed during quarantine? Find out in this episode, where we discuss the resurgence, worsening, or development of EDs during a global pandemic. Our host, Kiera, also shares her own struggles and triumphs during quarantine.
