I don’t know about anyone else, but for me the last year was a hellava year – good and bad – and as it’s a New Year tradition to set some goals for the new year, I’ve naturally included this site which has received so much of my care and attention. So here’s what I…
I guess this could even be Part 2 of Stopping Fat Talk, because it’s important to train yourself to tune in to all the insidious ways we are subjected to the ‘thin means healthy’ lie mantra by media, health professionals, and friends and family. So this series of articles can help you question the ‘truth’…
You’ve probably heard about the movement to stop fat talk. But maybe you’re not sure exactly what it is, or why you should consider stopping it. So what’s to be done? What’s worked for me is finding out what fat talk actually is, where it shows up, how you can identify it – and then…
It was very disappointing, distressing even, that maybe the most ‘famous’ body image advocate, Jess Weiner, recently spoke about how ‘loving her body made her ill’.
