And I can honestly say that I do not know a single girl who has a perfectly healthy relationship either with food or her body. I really believe that we are all eating disordered in some way. I definitely still have disordered thoughts from time to time but rather than thinking about calories, I do think about nutrition more and more. If something has no nutritional value, I just don't feel inclined to eat it!<br /><br />Loved this post.Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17133232352924060797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433433883578873216.post-28730559576169041952010-07-07T12:32:15.395-04:002010-07-07T12:32:15.395-04:00Glad you are feeling better.

This needs to be fixed asap. Possible for lunch today. :)<br />And I agree with the food as nourishment thing.

It's the scientists' fault!"), but you can't argue with his message.<br /><br />Sometimes when I'm in a funk my sweetie asks why I think so much about it; there's no reason for me to worry about my looks because I already have him, right? If only. Though we aren't as bad as some other cultures in the world, American women still need to be attractive to get some basic respect in public and the workplace. When I'm filthy stinking rich, I tell myself, I can eat all the brownies I want.Tamara Marnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10684310618617404985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433433883578873216.post-64171965313122954612010-07-06T20:49:21.362-04:002010-07-06T20:49:21.362-04:00Really enjoyed this post!

I agree with you - viewing food as nourishment is important because it helps take out a lot of the emotional stuff that food is often associated with for many of us.Katie @ Health for the Whole Selfhttp://www.healthforthewholeself.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433433883578873216.post-8637682364905282292010-07-06T20:09:31.138-04:002010-07-06T20:09:31.138-04:00i love that u mentioned the difference in role and...i love that u mentioned the difference in role and importance of man vs women. thats a really key issue and point u brought up!<br /><br />and in terms of summing up nutrition "eating for nourishment" is really the best advice! we all know what is healthy for us whether we choose to practice that or not. <br /><br />such a brilliant post! <3Kelsey Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15880426389321835449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433433883578873216.post-44795206935721942432010-07-06T16:31:07.938-04:002010-07-06T16:31:07.938-04:00lele, i loved this post, and i could relate to you...lele, i loved this post, and i could relate to you on so many levels. i especially enjoyed that david sedaris excerpt (i went to his book reading last summer in new york and he is JUST as funny, if not funnier, in person), and i really loved your own personal thoughts/reflections as well. there is no doubt that i have been influenced so much by societal/media images of what is considered beautiful, what is considered being in control of my body, but i am slowly learning - slowly being the right word - about what striving for health looks like, rather than what society deems "beautiful." i think we should each be able to define "beautiful" on my own terms!Natalie @ cinnamonbumshttp://cinnamonbums.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
