The opposite attitudes are just two sides of the same coin. It’s the curse of plenty. Everybody who’s got internet access knows perfectly well what’s good for them and what’s not. Cynical manufacturers exploiting weakness.

I have quite disordered eating and eat one meal a day. I was a skinny child, then a fat teenager and young adult. Lost weight early thirties without trying and seems to be coming off the pill.

I have a fairly disordered relationship with food: the only times I have felt genuinely in control of what I eat have been largely around restricting (refined) carb intake. I know very few women who are able to just regard food as fuel.

I still remember, probably 15 years later, a birthday card from my best friend (who is the world's best card-buyer anyway). With a cheery Sandra Boynton hippo on the front, it said "Happy birthday to a TRULY GREAT FRIEND, who has never ONCE said "Are you sure you should be eating that?"
