#antidiet — Public Fediverse posts

Dreading the January onslaught of messages demanding that you “fix” your body so it conforms to an unrealistic ideal based on racism?

Interested in hearing from under-represented voices in public health that share different messages?

Announcing the Shared Stories Society!

Starting January 16 join me online Friday afternoons from 3-4:30pm Pacific Time for “media club”. This program invites participants to explore under represented voices in public health. We will examine books, zines, and more across the year. Each session will include time for grounding and self-reflection in addition to group discussion of the materials.

January through February we’ll be reading Aubrey Gordon’s book, “What We Don’t Talk About When We Talk About Fat”, and learn how anti-fat bias harms not only fat people, but thin people as well.

While this is listed as being for adults 60+, if you’re an adult younger than 60 and want to participate, please sign up anyway! We’ve officially expanded it to 40+, but if this is what you need and over 20, consider joining, just know the conversation may be biased to post-menopausal people.

#GeneralMills has showered giveaways on registered #dietitians who promote its cereals w/the hashtag DerailTheShame, & #sponsored #influencers who promote its sugary snacks. The co also enlisted #lobbyists & pushed back against fed policies that would add #health info to #FoodLabels.

…Online dietitians—many of them backed by food makers—also are building lucrative followings by co-opting #AntiDiet msgs. Anti-diet hashtags…have proliferated on #SocialMedia.

#PublicHealth #nutrition #CREAM

One company in particular, #GeneralMills, maker of CocoaPuffs & LuckyCharms cereals, has launched a multi-pronged campaign that capitalizes on the teachings of the #AntiDiet movement….

General Mills has toured the country touting anti-diet research it claims proves the harms of “food shaming” [it does harm, but doesn’t necessitate unhealthy food habits].

As #obesity rises, #BigFood & *#dietitians* push ‘#AntiDiet’ advice

…the “anti-diet” movement, a #SocialMedia juggernaut that began as an effort to combat #WeightStigma & an unhealthy obsession w/thinness…[has now been co-opted by]…global food marketers…seeking to cash in on the trend.

You can eat all the calorie free, sugar free, fat free, guilt free food and what you'll eventually figure out is what's not free is you. You're trapped in #dietculture and you're scared of peanut butter.

(By the way…if you’re allergic to PB you’re allowed to be scared of it, this isn't about that.)

Disclaimer: People will disagree with me, and those people are allowed to be wrong. Please note I do not engage with diet/health/fat trolls.

Good morning, Arizona!
What do you have planned today? Anything that will make you smile?

Step outside and look for some beauty… and then remember that you didn’t actually need to go outside to see beauty. You are beautiful!

Think about something you appreciate about yourself. Really consider it. Revel for a satisfying moment. Now repeat.

Chag Chanukah Sameach!

Things to know about Chanukah:
🕎 There are multiple acceptable ways to spell it.
🕎 It’s a holiday that celebrates honoring cultural identity against the message of assimilation
🕎 We celebrate OIL

If oily foods are uncomfortable for your body, honor your needs. For the rest of us, don’t fear the fry!

Enjoying cultural dishes stirs up happy hormones—ones that help regulate both emotions and promote overall health. Restriction is the reverse!

I see you there, about to step on the scale.
Stop for a minute and think about it.
What does the scale have to tell you this morning?
How will it affect how you see yourself? How will it affect the rest of the day?

Is it possible to avoid the scale, just for today? To listen to your body and make decisions that you know will feel good to your body and your spirit?

Can health exist without the scale?
It really can.

Good morning!

#Noom is a predatory diet using eating disorder language to hook victims.
Don’t do it.

@tomekw I gave it up a few years ago. It’s a game changer. And the game you’re changing is the game where you obsess about weight and feel like shit if it isn’t what you think it should be. Turns out that’s a game that is no fun at all. #antidiet

As I am still trying to get my bearings over here, would love to know your recs for follows in #health #publichealth #medicine #wellness #fitness #antidiet
