Diet culture has seeped its way into our school systems for decades and the results are staggering. In an attempt to reverse the "Obesity epidemic" school systems have caused hyperawareness over bodies, calories, movement and shame. The average girl starts her first diet at age 12, 3/5 girls in High school will have disordered eating, 4/5 will fall prey to chronic dieting. By the time our youth enter college they are set up for a world of struggle with body image, peer pressure and self-esteem.
