Get summer ready with our Top 10 Bikini Body Tips!!!!   Fuck off, Chelsea. Your flat tummy tea sponsorship isn’t fooling anyone.   Sadly, when summer rolls around, there are a lot of people eyeing up their summer clothes with disdain, anxiety and immense sadness. Whether it’s struggling to fit into clothes after lockdown, or staring down at the size of your jeans and wondering why you can’t fit into them – body image issues are prevalent.   Summer seems to be the biggest breeding ground for these feelings, with ‘bikini body’ narratives plastered everywhere, and the assumption that any skin you show has to be tanned, unblemished and toned into oblivion.   Well, we’re human.   Some humans have stretch marks, cellulite, acne and jiggly bits. And that’s fine.   Also discussed in this episode: How our emotionality ties into eating behaviours and the way we should approach discussions around body image, disordered eating and health Why the ‘I’m saying it for their health’ argument for speaking on other people’s bodies is bullshit Body dysmorphia and how it can affect your perception of yourself and others How our childhood perception of food can later affect our relationship with eating behaviours and our body image (reward/punishment) Why you should wear whatever the fuck you want in summer I could’ve spent about three hours tying disordered eating, body image, body perception and societal expectations of beauty all together but…this quick stop tour will have to suffice.   Lucky you, you’ve landed on Just Don’t Get Me Started, the podcast that is taking on society one rant at a time. Laugh at or with host, Grace Hall, as she attempts to battle through Salford’s intense background noise, her own procrastination and her tendency to pick up new hobbies and drop them immediately to entertain you (a little).   Just Don’t Get Me Started is sometimes informed, always humorous, and is centred around bringing entertainment through topics that matter.   If you want to receive a very loving message to your inbox, please do forward the podcast on social media, subscribe on whichever platform it is you love to listen on or just shout from the rooftops about it, because your neighbours should be as annoyed with you as you are with them.   Harass me on social media: My Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/grace_r_hall/ Just Don’t Get Me Started’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justdontgetmestarted/ My LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/grace-r-hall/   Intro and outro music: Hall of the Mountain King Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 2.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0
