Staying fed is a radical act right now. Plus: why body shame narrows our world, the distraction of thinness, pantry staples, and random acts of self-care.
Hi Abbie- Hope you are feeling better! If you ever want to have a surgeon on the podcast, I'd love to chat. I'm in the midst of completing Body Trust Certification, have had my own issues with food for the past million years, and think about bodies, about rest, and about recovery so much in my professional and personal life.
I’ve been really sore all week because my city got almost a foot of snow and ice and our temperatures haven’t been above the 20s, so navigating it has really taken a lot out of me. It took me two hours to shovel out my car on Monday and I really felt it in my body afterwards. I’m really struggling with giving myself permission to fully rest and eat what I need, but it’s rough when I feel lazy and unproductive. I know my body is demanding it though.
I have a more complex pill box than you!🤣 Mine has a morning, noon, and night slot for each day because I have to space out some of my pills. I usually refill mine every couple of days and it definitely makes it easier than opening all the bottles every day.
I hope you’re enjoying your ice cream and start to feel better soon.
Yum and thank you and love you and please carry on looking after yourself. We love and need you, dear Abbie ❤️❤️

I love the framing of filling our weekly pill boxes as self-care! Hope you're resting up and taking good care.
FEEL BETTER Abbie!
I hope you’re recovering, Abbie.
