“Instead of focusing on making your meals as nutritious, filling and enjoyable as they could be, you were making hideous low calorie dishes with Quark..”

I didn’t consider myself much of an absorber of diet culture until I realised I ONLY cooked with disgusting fry light. I was 33 when I realised I could cook with butter and it would be… fucking delicious?

Can we also discuss companies advertising products that promise magical effortless weight loss to women in menopause? I threw away all my vitamins at the beginning of the year, and just got fed up drinking apple cider vinegar. One company kept popping up on my socials with promises of banishing bloat and beating 'menopause belly'. I got lured in by massive discounts and I really thought wow this could be the answer. £200 later and a water tight returns policy which means that they would never issue a refund... I totally fell for it. Anyone else?
