Скачать или смотреть Cheat Days From Food

The idea of a “cheat day” comes from diet culture — not from health, not from science, and certainly not from eating disorder recovery.

Here’s the truth:

You don’t need a cheat day.
All foods fit.
There is no such thing as “cheating” on something your body genuinely needs.

For many people with eating disorders, the language of “good foods” and “bad foods” becomes one of the biggest barriers to healing.
It turns nourishment into morality.
It turns hunger into guilt.
And it creates the illusion that enjoying food is somehow “wrong.”

But food is not a test you pass or fail.
It is not a reward.
It is not something you earn.
It is a basic need — physically, emotionally, and socially.

For individuals struggling:
If you’re working to rebuild regular eating, a cheat day only reinforces the restriction-binge cycle. Your body doesn’t need punishment. It needs predictability, permission, and safety.

For families and carers:
When supporting someone in recovery, the way you talk about food matters. Neutral language helps reduce fear and shame, especially around festive foods during the holidays.

Recovery means:
✨ All foods can have a place.
✨ Eating isn’t breaking a rule.
✨ Nourishment is not a “treat” — it’s essential.

If you or your loved one is navigating food guilt, binge-restrict cycles, or fear foods, you don’t have to do this alone.
