•International No Diet Day • I have been dieting for years and years and years. I think I started my first diet when I was like 12 years old. Before that I already had many days that I restricted myself from eating sugar or snacks or where I felt that I had to eat less than I normally did because I was fatter then other kids. I’ve been dieting for many years and it was never a succes. I didn’t lose enough weight, it didn’t go fast enough, so I ate less and less and I took diet pills to speed up to progress. When I did lose weight, it was just waiting for the moment I couldn’t hold on to the diet anymore and I gained everything (and more) back on. Diets don’t work!! De dieting culture is a way to earn money by keeping people unhappy about theirselves. It’s profiting from the unrealistic beauty standards and keeping them in tact. Because they want to earn money. They don’t want to help you, they don’t want you to be happy about yourself. Because right at the moment we start loving ourselves for who we are and be happy with ourselves, they stop earning money. In the second slide two books that helped me to understand this industry and helped me see that it was not my fault that my diets didn’t work. That I was not I failure, but that I was set up to fail.
