As somebody who does weight training and whose parents also do weight training, to a much higher degree, and knows quite a lot: The kind of skinny that you get via overly-restrictive diets like keto are unhealthy, and often, these diets don't even work. The healthiest human body is strong, not skinny. To be strong, you need muscle. And to grow muscle, you need three things: Exercise, protein, and calories. The exercise is obvious. Exercise the part of you that you want to get stronger. Muscle will probably grow there if you keep it up for long enough. Protein helps you gain muscle. And nobody ever became an elite powerlifter on 800 kcals per day. Please look up photos of actual powerlifters - NOT bodybuilders. Note how everybody who's actually strong, is also pretty fat. Another big factor is that these overly restrictive diets tend to cut out all the enjoyable foods - so cake, pizza, burgers, and so forth. So these foods become "Forbidden", and therefore more desirable. Eventually, you're going to snap and binge-eat all those foods you've been denying yourself - and gain back all that weight. The ideal diet should have enough calories to at least maintain a healthy body weight, and that's it. Stick to your calorie limit, and free eat otherwise. You've got the calories for that burger, or that KFC, or that double chocolate muffin? Cool! Go ahead! And even then, having a few days where you go over doesn't matter. Most people will unconsciously track their nutrients, calories, and such when given a chance. I naturally default to about 2000 calories per day, myself. This is more than I'd like, but 1800 is enough to maintain a healthy weight and not leave me hungry, so I go for that. HAVING SAID ALL THAT: This is all OPTIONAL. Being overweight or obese is unhealthy, yes, but if you choose to have excessive weight or body fat, that's YOUR choice to make. You shouldn't be shamed for that. It's a choice just like smoking. It's unhealthy, but nobody's ever been denied healthcare because they're a smoker. I choose to follow a weightlifter's diet and do training for the following reasons: - I have the right genetics and build to be a powerlifter from a young age, and I like the idea of that. - I don't enjoy how I look and feel when overweight. - I want to get stronger. Somebody might have different reasons for not tracking calories or exercising. Maybe they enjoy food too much to restrict calories. Maybe they have chronic pain that makes it difficult to exercise. I don't know. Being overweight is, scientifically, unhealthy. But so is smoking, not getting enough sleep, and consuming too much caffeine. Nobody ever went to the doctor and was told to cut out their morning cup of coffee before they could be prescribed life-saving heart medication. Why is being fat any different?

my new roommate said that her last roommate had an eating disorder and then talked to me about her clean eating and weight loss goals and how she buys clothes that are a little snug to motivate her to lose more

and like honestly? i have anorexia but this is why i constantly talk about the dangers of the “health and fitness” industry and diet culture bc we have essentially normalized certain symptoms of disordered eating but it’s ok if it’s under the guise of health i guess???

like how is calling it “clean” eating NOT a way to moralize food

how is intermittent fasting NOT the same thing as skipping meals

how come when i buy clothes that don’t fit, it’s something i have to tell my therapist about because it means i am putting pressure on myself to fit into them, but if a “normal” person does it then it’s just motivation for them?

where is the fucking line???

and more importantly when are we going to start acknowledging that the entire world is pro-ana but that’s too harsh of a description so we slap some health buzzwords on it to make it palatable

when are we going to take responsibility for encouraging disordered behavior instead of labeling those of us with EDs as the crazy/imbalanced ones

your fucking Whole30 or keto or whatever “clean” diet you’re on is just as restrictive as the diets we create for ourselves due to our disorders. but we are the crazy ones, right

autistic fitzsimmons headcanons

jemma walks on her tiptoes when she’s excited or nervous 

fitz likes animals in part because it’s much easier to understand their behavior than other people 

jemma used to go nonverbal as a child whenever she was in an emotional situation. she learned bsl to use with her family whenever she did. she doesn’t go nonverbal much anymore, but still finds it easier to think in sign when she does 

fitz is a restrictive eater and it’s hard to get him to eat anything healthy or with a “grown up” taste. he’s branched out a little, but only if jemma makes it 

jemma finds it easy and comforting to memorize movie scripts. she has favorites that she watches over and over and recites the whole thing 

fitz has never understood gender very well and identifies as male because that’s the easiest option, not because he has much attachment to it 

jemma was hyperlexic as a child and could read children’s chapter books at age 4 

fitz finds it hard to process long verbal instructions and likes things written down 

jemma has a special interest in astronomy 

they’re both very sensitive to medications and have to take like half the recommended dose of anything 

jemma prides herself on her people skills, but it’s exhausting and still performative 

fitz finds pressure very calming and loves when people lay on top of him 

jemma used to stim more openly as a kid but the other children would make fun of her, so she developed covert stims like rubbing her thumbs over her fingers or pressing her neck. after she realizes she’s autistic she starts to stim more openly again and even tries to copy some of fitz’s to see how they feel 

fitz has to try REALLY HARD not to cover his ears at loud noises 

they both have comfort objects. fitz has a monkey stuffed animal his mom got him as a kid, and jemma has a knitted blanket her grandmother made her

Say what you will, but Tony Stark is the only mortal who ever made Thanos bleed

sometimes i wonder how a writer would describe me if i were a character in a book

Does anybody have any idea what this might be? Found in a shop in the UK, probably pinned up by a customer. I’m more confused and scared than anything, lol.
