This affect is almost like a law of nature, nothing to be ashamed about. All we can do is try to live a HAES Life and get as much exercise as possible.
ReplyDeleteVery succinct visual representation of the real effects of dieting, or as I put it mentally when people crow about how thin they've become: "Give it 5 years, then get back to me."
ReplyDeleteExactly why I had to stop dieting. I'm new to Size Acceptance, but thankfully, another of my friends had found it and has been preaching the word. I think it saved what little sanity I have left!
ReplyDeleteI've lost a lot of weights on diets over the years. I've lost on a variety of accepted diets including liquid diet with high protein. I can lose weight. But keeping it off is tough.
ReplyDeleteI have taken all the nutrition/exercise classes to go with those diets so am well informed. I'm a trained and educated medical professional as a veterinarian. I blame those drops in weight as a component to my After After which tends to be about 20% more than my Before.
I'm new to HAES and am delving into it as I owe that to myself. Heck, I owe a lot to myself, not just HAES philosophy and self love.
Thank you for your post.
