purity culture fucked me up really badly. as someone who's on the grey-asexual spectrum, I got the biggest superiority complex for how not "caving" to those "evil urges" because I hardly experienced sexual attraction at all. it's remarkably easy to be abstinent when you don't have much of a sex drive or attraction. I thought I was such a good little Catholic girl. however, that same community that praised me for not falling for the temptation of sex as a teen ended up being dismissive and cruel when I expressed that yeah, I still didn't have any real inclination to have sex and have kids even if I would get married. growing up with such a negative view of anything sexual and being told that it would be my fault for tempting should someone elses "fall" and then immediately doing a 180 to "now you'll *have* to have sex with your husband, even if you don't want to" was one of the worst whiplash events of my life. and even now, an adult with healthy relationships, engaging in consensual sexual things spooks or disgusts me. it's the worst game of tug-a-war because for once I actually *want* to do something sexual with someone, but I get such an icky feeling from the purity culture trauma chiming in with how "dirty, vile" it is and how I'm "falling for it" and stopping to "their" level. it's gonna take so much therapy for me.

[@sari9645]

It’s interesting a LOT of women who grew up with purity culture develop vaginismus because of exactly what you’re talking about with the sudden 180° switch from abstinence at all costs to you HAVE to have s*x

[@UpsideDown853]

Hi, I just wanted to validate your experience. I know it’s tough and it can be surprising how much shame can suddenly surprise one, even if you actually are seeking out pleasure consensually. I really don’t have any tips, just want to let you know I can understand your perspective even though I do not entirely relate personally to your story. You aren’t dirty, and you aren’t wrong or broken. Whatever balance you end up finding, I am rooting for you!

[@FrumiousMing8]

You are not alone. I empathize with your experience as I am also grey-ace and grew up under purity culture. It gave me such a fear of romantic & sexual intimacy that I'm still unpacking to this day. I figured out this whole asexuality thing in my early 20s. I'm 31 now and I feel a lot more settled in my sexuality and comfortable with myself but I feel like still have baggage, so to speak, surrounding sex and intimacy.

[@233kosta]

Make no mistake, this puritanical bullsh!t isn't going anywhere. The only thing that's changing is the definition of "pure". The ideologues and their methods are as strong as ever, it's only the largely irrelevant content of their ideologies that's different. Stay vigilant. Stay rational. Stay sane... if you can.

To put Brittney's projected numbers into perspective, I used to be a counselor at a methadone clinic. I had a caseload of about 100 clients. Making a personal monthly treatment plan for those 100 clients was virtually impossible; when you consider the time you should be putting into each client, there's just mathematically NO WAY they are all getting the appropriate standard of care (one of the many reasons I no longer work there). So, now just imagine that this was, instead, 5000 clients. And not only are you creating a personal plan for each one (allegedly lol), you're also "personally checking in" on many of them, weekly??

She had a very aggressive attitude and seemed to only care about money. Her and her friend, who she referred me to for dietary plans, started a scammy program that was $300+ for 2 weeks and was a program they put together. Half assed too I should say.

I work as a PT here in Chicago, here's the crazy part to me (still early into the video btw) - It is not legal for a personal trainer to recommend spesific foods in the US, virtual or otherwise, our certification does not cover spesific nutrition like that. We can tell clients about calories, tell them to be "protein focused", I even get into the concept of intuitive eating. But we can't say "you need to eat this spesific food" because we're not trained nutritionists, to be a nutritionist you need a university degree, not a PT certification. I'm good with diet when it comes to bodybuilding, I can train my clients to learn that the more muscle density they gain, the easier time their body will have burning fat. But there are some things I literally cannot do cuz I am not trained.

[@AuDHDVee]

Far too many foster kids end up being tra**icked & that couple is toxic and horrifying and I feel so badly for that child. I have to wonder if it's truly a legal foster situation, and if they'll eventually say they 'adopted the baby bc the mom just couldn't fix her ways'.

[@Listening_Books12345]

I'm so sorry you're going through this rn. I had a similar struggle. I got a lot of compliments when I wasn't eating, and it just made me angrier and feel worse, because I knew I wasn't doing a good or healthy thing. I wasn't even doing it on purpose, it was all mental health stuff. Honestly I didn't start gaining weight until I went on birth control for a different reason. And that's not even addressing the gastrointestinal issues that also made it uncomfortable to eat much, but also meant I burned through the food I ate fast and always felt empty. It was really hard and I'm still working on it. Now I have a few extra pounds I wouldn't mind getting rid of 😅, and my stomach biome is defs different than it used to be. But it has gotten easier. Keeping you in my thoughts and I hope it gets easier soon!

When I was growing up, even doctors recommended 1200 calories per day as the standard weight loss diet. I lost 60lbs in 2 months as a young woman, anorexic from that “diet,” and my doctor *congratulated* me.

[@jilllime3824]

I did that diet as a young women and lost my period for a year and a half and developed a heart condition. 1200 calories is the lowest daily intake I’ve ever seen recommended, and only for those who are sedentary, not ready to commit to an exercise regimen and seriously struggling to lose weight.

[@mistybraun9973]

When I was in the Maines, I went to a nutritionist on base who told me I had to stick to a 1200 calorie diet. What a lot of people don’t know if how prevalent eating disorders are in the military. Weeks leading up to weigh in day were focused on sweating and not eating. I never had an eating disorder until I joined the Marines.

this. i was eating three protein bars a day, for breakfast, lunch and dinner. no snacks, no other meals, i was afraid of going out to dinner with friends and family to the point where i would sob in the car if a restaurant didn’t have salad (lettuce) and balsamic vinegar. 600 calories a day. my doctor told me i looked great and healthy. i was 14 years old.

I was in foster care, and I wholeheartedly agree that the system is very broken. I was in foster care from the age of 9 (2004) until I was 19 (2014). I had 3 terrible homes before I found my last one at the age of 11 and they became my family. Originally they wanted to get us (3 kids) back with my mom and step dad, but that didn’t work out and I am grateful because my mother was abusive and neglectful. The state never took her parental rights but we were permanently wards of the state. The system needs work but scattered about are some truly wonderful homes

I was having you in the background playing Sims, but the phrase about 1200 calories a day caught my attention. For 7 months, I exercised 6-7 days a week, eating 1200 calories a day and binging on the weekends. My cheat day was me eating whatever I couldn't the other days. I thought I was doing well, but I didn't achieve the weight loss I desired, so I was about to cut back to 1000 calories a day, when thankfully a trainer at my gym stepped in. He advised me to consume 2000-2400 calories a day, and I had to re-learn eating properly. I had to try and recall what a breakfast based upon more than oats and a banana was like, what you could snack between meals. Where did this diet come from? A random KZbinr, not Britney but some other KZbinr who promoted weight loss. I am at a place today where I try not to count calories, but I still cannot weight myself. My heart goes out to anyone who got victimized by the vicious diet culture. Please eat, please rest, please stay safe. You have an entire life to live and being in a prison mentally is no way to do so.

I had been hospitalized before,but this place was different and helped me a lot ! It didn’t cure me ,there is no cure for EDs , you have to take it one day at a time ,except you can’t stop eating ,which makes it a much harder addiction to overcome in my opinion! I ruined my body in so many serious ways ! This women is true evil ,all she cares about is money and herself ,what a narcissist ! She shows narcissistic actions by the way she talks of religion,which she basically uses to justify her horrible actions ,she is one of those crazy people that use religion,and give it a bad name !

I was a D1 college swimmer. And 2 hours was the minimum I was doing a day. I was training about 3-4 hours a day 6 days a week....and my intake of food showed that....I never actually tracked my calories and still don't to this day. But I figured I was clocking about 3000 calories a day. But yeah...that's crazy she would be having people consume LESS than the minimum required for basic body functions. Like the cals it takes for just your body to stay alive starts at like 1000..

[@tilu3303]

When people have extra fat, they can get by on very few intake calories when and if their body resorts to turning fat into fuel.

[@emilybixler3166]

​@@tilu3303that isn't how metabolism and bodies work. Extremely low calorie intake can significantly lower your metabolism, and your body enters starvation mode and tries to store as much fat as possible (all while not giving enough energy to your organs and eating your muscle/organs). I've had a variety of anorexia for four years, including times I was overweight. Now that I'm eating more, my metabolism has skyrocketed and I'm burning *wayyy* more calories than I was.

I did a pre-professional ballet program through high school, I started at 1 and ended anywhere from 4pm to 10pm. I averaged around 6 hours of dance a day, sometimes more, sometimes less, but I never did less than 2 hours a day, 6 days a week. I also consider myself a light eater, I have a dietary restriction, I didn’t like dancing super full and am a picky eater. I also didn’t track my calories, but I ate at LEAST 2 full meals, and 3-5 snacks, I did what’s now called intuitive eating, just ate whatever my body was asking for. I consumed roughly around 2500-3000 calories a day, with maybe 1500 of those calories being ‘empty’ or ‘unhealthy’. I can’t imagine restricting my diet while exercising that much. Holy shit.

So.. When I didn’t knew any better I joined an online fitness coach who gave “individual” plans (there were actually 3 different for losing weight if you have more weight to loose, if you have little weight to loose and want to build muscle and if you wanted to gain muscle and weight). I was put on 1300 cal and told I should do 5 days of weight training and on day 6 I was supposed to to a hit training. I told her I’m struggling with binge eating but she was quite rude like I was lacking some discipline. I could eat only few different food types and everything was mostly bland. She also gaslighted us on live and told us we are responsible for making our food delicious while following her plan, recipes and was told we aren’t allowed almost any spices. Sweets were not allowed, junk food was not allowed, and when I asked her after 2 weeks of being on this diet, what to eat in a restaurant on my friends birthday, she told me to order a salad. I ended up ordering pasta and ate the whole big bowl because I was so fucking hungry actually. I did loose a lot of weight in VERY short time. But I did return most of the weight after finishing the program because she never explained what you are supposed to do forward. She told us how thats it. That is our life. I lost all of my muscles, I was stressing all the time about what food can I eat and where or what will I be eating that is in line with what I’m “allowed”. After Christmas and all that food where I told myself I will not think about it what I will eat, I went on a full on binge eating fest that lasted for months because I was so hungry my body probably just wanted to take in all the restricted food in and it would get worse every time I told myself, Ok, from Monday no more! I’m recovering from the binge eating currently and learning to maintain my weight healthy way.

[@thefirstface4575]

Just want to thank you for including the information on calories and exercise that you did, my plan was very similar and I honestly didn’t know it was a problem because a family member shared what worked for them, I will increase my calories, cut down on exercise and make a drs appointment to make sure I’m ok! Thanks for being so informative,in addition to all you’ve shared about this case.
