Bodies are not supposed to fit into the narrow range stated in the BMI chart, and they are not meant to stay the same as we age. We should not be expected to weigh in our seventies what we weighed in our twenties. Bodies—and health—are always in flux. #BodyTrustTuesday

RP: Christina, MS, RDN, LDN / EncouragingDietitian ❤️ "I’m concerned that we’re pretending everything is business as usual. I’m concerned that we can’t see a reflection of our humanity in them. I’m concerned that it doesn’t matter where this takes place, as long as it’s not you."

Understanding how we lose trust in our bodies helps us locate the problem outside of our bodies, clearing the way for new personal narratives to emerge. We deserve agency over the telling of our truth. We are the only ones who can truly write our story. #BodyTrustTuesday

RP: Nicole Romanella O'Neal ❤️ "Our girls, are simply trying to sell you cookies. They shouldn’t worry about the calories of the cookies, the diet the person they’re selling to is on, or the body flaw that’s causing a person not to purchase. Diet and body shame is learned."

RP: tkr/HealingCrayons ❤️ "...it’s eating w/ judgment. Yes, there are times I will eat more than usual. For example: the food tastes amazing or it’s a holiday or I’m extra hungry. But if I negatively judge my eating, I’m likely to try to respond to that judgement w/ restriction."

From our dear friend and colleague, Dalia Kinsey: Join us for an enlightening session filled with expert insights, practical tools, and mindful practices that will empower you to make food choices aligned with your body's unique needs. Info & registration: bit.ly/42fHrN6

If we believe we began as whole and have been distanced from our wholeness due to coping and survival, it is much easier to consider trusting the wisdom that comes from within. Who would you be if you weren’t always planning the next step on your Body Project? #BodyTrustTuesday

RP EncouragingDietitian: "more helpful labels are: delicious, tasty, something I enjoy, something I don’t enjoy, more helpful, less helpful,etc moral language doesn’t belong w/ food. food can’t behave. it can’t independently do something bad. food makes no choices. food is food."

RP: kristine / IpsoFatso. Art on IG 💚 this body is my home 💚 ID: a beautiful fat nude person w/ red hair & pink hearts all over their skin, wrapping their arms around themselves in loving care. Vines surround them & purple text overlaid on their body reads: This body is loved.

The standards of beauty, while they have evolved and changed over time, have always been set by people in power. How many people, experiences, ideas, and creations have you bypassed due to this indoctrination? What have we missed out on in the process? #BodyTrustTuesday

Those in each cohort are often engaged in their own healing process, which means that our participants show up as human, with little professional masking and a sincere commitment to making their communities safer for all bodies. If this calls you we think you should join us!

We wonder if you can acknowledge that the hustle for the "perfect body" is holding you back from doing things you could really do now. And how the hustle has reinforced a sense of failure, self-loathing, and distrust in yourself, which has impacted how you engage with the world.
