DEALING WITH FOOD SCARCITY FEELINGS DURING COVID-19

Currently, my body is responding to a perceived scarcity which is not the actual reality because we have lots of food. The stores might not have everything, but there IS still food.

I was going to make macaroni cheese and the store didn't have macaroni pasta. They only had these weird star-shaped pasta. I had to make star-shaped pasta with cauliflower to bulk it up with cheese and it didn't taste good. Anyway, there might be things we need to substitute.

In some areas, you might not have access to food and some people might not have all the funds to access the food depending on your work situation.

So, because it's complicated and this is not anything that we've experienced before in our lifetimes, we're going to have a reaction. It's absolutely 100% normal, even if you've never had a disordered relationship with food, even if you've never had an eating disorder.

Obviously, if you have had either, then it's going to be potentially more heightened.

It's really important for you to eat the food. Do not deny yourself. Do not fall for these fucking bullshit fatphobic, memes, and shit going around the internet saying “Oh my God. I'm going to put on weight while I'm doing this corona quarantining” shit.

It's bullshit. It's really problematic.

Alongside, dealing with social distancing and the world stops. You have not to worry about not putting on weight, fuck that noise.

No, don't look at those messages.

Don't listen to that.

If you're worried about becoming fatter, please look after your mental health and surround yourself with only fat positive messages.
