No.Food.Rules

Your hunger doesn’t need a “reason”. There IS a reason. Your body is asking for it because it needs it. End of story.

Having a tough workout is not a prerequisite for you feeling hungrier.

Beyond our movement there is so much going on inside of our bodies that we can’t see. Is your body fighting off an illness you can’t even feel?

Our bodies don’t do the exact same things ever day. Do you do the same amount of toothbrush strokes? Trips to the bathroom?

Sometimes you just feel hungrier. For no apparent “reason” and that’s ok.

Eating less earlier is also not a prerequisite for you feeling hungrier.

The only transformation photos I want to see are ones turning banana bread ingredients into banana bread. Now that’s a transformation to be proud of!

If someone’s new “healthy lifestyle” “isn’t about the weight” then why are we still posting a side-by-side comparison?

If it’s truly not about the weight we wouldn’t be posting a “transformation” photo at all. That’s just diet culture in disguise as “wellness”.

If you’ve been working on honoring your health- both physical and/or mental- great! How about we just post a picture in the now.

I’m all for someone implementing health promoting behaviors like moving their body or nourishing it with foods that feel good. But when we “show” this with body comparison photos it perpetuates the idea that being thinner is the way to do that. Not true.

One that is abso-freaking-lutely YOUR definition of “healthy” and no one else's.

A definition of “healthy” that isn’t tied to shrinking your body. One that incorporates both physical & mental health.

Thanks to diet culture the word “healthy” is now triggering to many.

It’s not food freedom OR be healthy. It’s food freedom AND be healthy.

You’re not healthy at EVERY size. You’re healthy at YOUR size.

Your hunger is valid whether you see a "reason for it" or not.
