It's super fun.

But I think for me, that body positivity was the one thing that really helped me feel comfortable in my body.

And what I can say is, and I see body positivity as of course, you know, just welcoming who you are, accepting your body.

And because I was able to do that, I was able to, you know, identify what I wanted to do with my body and that was to lose weight.

Again, not something that you have to do.

And I did it in a way where I appreciated myself.

I appreciated my body rather than this inspiration of hatred.

I think there's some people that are inspired by the hatred of their body and that they'll lose weight even at a rapid pace, losing like 30, 40 pounds a month, which we know is not healthy.

You know, sometimes like losing like, yeah, right.

The average person, yes, I agree.

I think people agree that, or I've seen like, you know, five to eight or 10 pounds a month is,

kind of what you want to do in a healthy, like rapid, a way to lose weight.

And I think sometimes if you're doing too much, that's where it can become.

It's not realistic at all.

And it can become unsustainable if that can happen.

So that's kind of what I would say.

And because body positivity was such a gateway for me to accept my body, that's how I think it's so appropriate and just so amazing for people who, and like you said,

they are doing the work, maybe not necessarily physically, but I think that there is a mental component they have to address because without that mental component or that mental work you're doing, again, maybe they're just exercising or losing weight or whatever it is, or changing their body, altering it out of shame rather than, you know.

Okay, you're probably wondering why I, Rachel, have taken over the voice duties at TCB.

It's pretty simple.
