Her after picture is a photo of her in her nakers, sort of naked, itвЂ™s tasteful, and sheвЂ™s carrying a lot more weight in the after picture than in the before picture. In her before picture she was standing on stage at a body building competition in a bikini and she says she was basically in the perfect body. What happened is Taryn posted a picture on the internet, it was a before and after picture. I think that she has started a conversation that is rippling through millions of women (and hopefully men too) to start to really figure out how can we end this war weвЂ™re at with our bodies, with food, and with confidence within ourselves, and really change the way that we are living our lives and modeling a life that can be lived well for our daughters without constantly feeling the hate for our bodies and for food. Let me be clear and say that I think Taryn Brumfitt is amazing. Let me just explain a little bit about what this documentary was about and why I feel this need to address so many of the issues that were brought up in it. ThatвЂ™s not totally true, because what I have to say is going to be relevant no matter if youвЂ™ve seen it or not, but youвЂ™ll have a better picture of what IвЂ™m talking about.

Possibly even before you listen to this podcast. I have to say that if you havenвЂ™t seen the Embrace documentary that was created by Taryn Brumfitt from Australia, itвЂ™s absolutely something that you want to watch.

This is my most vulnerable, transparent podcast episode to date вЂ“ one where I take a strong point of view and go into the science and psychology of weight loss.

Yet, while watching this documentary I also felt this burning desire to take a stand for what I know IS possible for women and how gaps in knowledge can handcuff us to the old dieting regime of вЂњall or nothingвЂќ, вЂњgood or badвЂќ, вЂњon the wagon or off the wagonвЂќ and how THAT is what makes our life a prison and how the battle with food seems never ending.

But then, IвЂ™m no stranger to that вЂ“ I listen to women everyday who tear themselves to pieces and feel like such a failure because they canвЂ™t seem to get a handle on their weight no matter what they do. It was an emotional experience to view this documentary and to hear the things women say about their bodies вЂ“ things like they think their bodies are вЂњfatвЂќ, вЂњdisgustingвЂќ, вЂњgrossвЂќ, вЂњstumpyвЂќ, and вЂњbelow averageвЂќ to name a few.

Naturally, being in the health space I was curious about this movie and knew I needed to see it. Taryn became an overnight media sensation and it prompted her to launch the Global Body Image movement from which the Embrace documentary was created. The photo went viral on FB and has since been viewed over 100,000,000 times. Her after photo was of Taryn sitting naked, carrying much more weight than in her вЂњbeforeвЂќ pic, and looking happy. Except this wasnвЂ™t the typical kind of before and after photo вЂ“ in this one, her before picture was of her looking ripped standing on stage in a bikini during a figure competition. All Taryn Brumfitt wanted to do was support her girlfriends and help them love and accept their bodies so she posted a вЂњbeforeвЂќ and вЂњafterвЂќ pic on Facebook.
