Chrissy Teigen is done with ‘diet culture’

Chrissy Teigen appeared in an interview with People magazine and revealed why she gave up on ‘diet culture’.

Talking about diet culture, the 35-year-old said, “I've thrown all of that out of the window. I think now at this point in my life it's more important for me to enjoy things as they come.”

The author of two cookbooks added, “I am stepping towards what’s going to make me happy.”

She shared, “I eat things when I want them. Because if I don't my mind personally goes crazy. I kind of put my mind over body a little bit, mind and spirit over body. If it's going to make me happy and make me feel good, then I indulge in it.”

She further added, “I've spent way too many years counting calories, scheduling way too many workouts and trying to figure out what my term for wellness was for myself. I've been trying to figure that out for so so long.”

She concluded, “Now I know that it's on the ground playing with my kids, getting out there, going to a park, going to an aquarium, being able to drive around with my kids in the car. That is activity for me and I enjoy doing things like that.”
