What’s even worse is that it’s mostly packaged food. If it were stuffed to the brim with fruit & veg, eggs, raw meat that isn’t processed, I wouldn’t think twice. I know we can’t see the drawers but the state of the rest of it makes me think they don’t have much good stuff in there!
It looks like ham, sausage rolls(?), some kind of coleslaw, pizza, a Pret sandwich!... honestly the only time my fridge has ever looked close to this is when hosting a party with a buffet! Even then I still had plenty of visible vegetables for crudite and salad stuff
The thing that riles me so much is that eating intuitively and recovering from restriction, as Grace preaches, is a real thing. I eat intuitively myself, it has been wonderful for me to break the starve/binge cycle that dominated my life.
There is a misconception that when you give yourself free rein to eat whatever you want, you end up like Grace. That is just not my experience at all - I had two weeks of going mad with takeaways and sweets, and then I felt awful and craved vegetables. I actually realised most of that salt-filled, sugar laden stuff isn’t even that nice!
Now I have a truly healthy, balanced diet but it has removed the fear I used to have around food - I don’t panic and freak out if I’m offered a slice of cake, I eat it and enjoy it and move on with my day without beating myself up because I went over my allotted calories. I have actually lost some weight because I don’t fall into that trap of trying to cut out everything “bad” for you and then end up bingeing on it later, because I can’t stop thinking about it. My tastes have changed and I personally wouldn’t want to eat the foods that are in Grace’s fridge.
Indeed, looking at that fridge, it is clear Grace is not engaging with this technique properly. There is no way she could be listening to her body and just feeding it all this salt-filled, chemical shite. There’s just no way.
I strongly suspect she is using intuitive eating (or whatever else she calls it) as an excuse to stuff her face. It really angers me, to be honest, because people like her make a mockery of a way of eating that has been so helpful to people like me.
I imagine they have to justify their demand, not just declare lol
