Theres nothing wrong with trying to lose weight. You get to do whatever you want with your body. Period. On a grander scale Im worried about a few things. Like why it is that nearly every woman Ive ever met is trying to lose weight?. That by the time they leave elementary school most girls have been on a diet. That arguably the only true solidarity amongst women is in our consumption with our flaws and that, too keeps us apart and judging one another. Im worried about what all of this takes us away from. Where might our energy be better used? Is this really in line with our individual and collective values system? And looking forward, what do we want to teach our babies? If the top of that list isnt how to stare in the mirror picking yourself apart, have a disordered relationship with self-care and to work, stress and guilt tirelessly over your bodys appearance, then there are some shifts we need to make together.
