Summary
"You look like you've gained/lost weight"
"Are you sure you want to eat that?"
Comments about your body or what you’re eating are upsetting, no matter what size you are. And they're extra frequent this time of year with all the holiday parties and family gatherings going on.
That’s why today we’re re-releasing a roundtable conversation we had last year with Team Recovery Warriors. You’ll hear from past and present members of the team, as we share tips to help you cope and stay on track when those unhelpful food and body comments come up.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Recover Strong, a show that will transform your recovery from an eating disorder by helping you go from theory to practice to mastery. |
| 0:08.4 | I'm Jessica Flint, founder of Recovery Warriors, and you are listening to our podcast channel created specifically for you in all the stages and phases of recovery. |
| 0:18.0 | I want to celebrate you for carving out this special time to learn new skills, |
| 0:22.7 | tools, and get inspiration you need to recover strong. Let's get started. |
| 0:28.5 | Good morning, warriors. Time to start your day. Keep your head up marching on, don't understand in your way. |
| 0:45.0 | Hello there, Warrior. |
| 0:46.3 | I'm your host, Andrea Wells. |
| 0:48.2 | And just like you, I understand what it's like to live with an eating disorder and be held |
| 0:52.7 | back by body image struggles. |
| 0:55.1 | The recovery journey is ongoing, and we're all in it together as we learn to embrace new |
| 0:59.8 | behaviors and new thoughts day by day. Join me as I connect with eating disorder experts and |

| 1:46.0 | frequent this time of year with all the holiday parties and family gatherings going on. You might cross |
| 1:51.6 | pass with that relative who just always has to say something about your body or what you're |
| 1:55.8 | eating. And even if people aren't talking directly to you, they can make comments about their own body or a diet that they're on, which is triggering in its own right. |
| 2:05.3 | And with this re-release, we're saying a farewell to the Five Things format. |
