Why Can’t I Stop Staring At Photos Of When I Was Thinner?

Aleen and Sami are back and talking all about confronting our body image issues. They start the show with their thoughts on the passing of RBG and the troubling state of the world. Then they discuss a personal story about stepping on the scale for the first time in months, and how a mental shift away from dieting actually worked. Plus, they talk about the 100 calorie snack rule and why no diet company actually cares about your mental health. Next, they talk about obsessing over photos (especially after your wedding) and the impulse to look back at how your body looked in the past. Are photos actually the opposite of mindfulness? Finally, they take a deeper look at current events and how they impact us emotionally.
