I’m A Diet Culture Dropout.

When I decided to walk away from diet culture, my mindset was wrapped up in the idea that I needed to fix myself plus I had all these thoughts that I wasn’t good enough the way that I was. 
The root cause of my problem was my unwillingness to acknowledge and feel all my feelings, especially the ones that made me uncomfortable. I had this fantasy that I absolutely believed in that once my problem (weight loss) was solved, everything aspect of my life would be perfect and I wouldn’t ever have to deal with my negative emotions.
