This episode's Dear Food letter:

Dear food.

I am so happy to be embracing you again. After months, years even, of tight, stifling restriction I have welcomed you back with much more open arms. I have defined and then found 'healthy enough' for me. The thing is, I am concerned now with something completely different. My partner of 10 years who on the outside looks the picture of health is choosing types of you that I can't help but worry about. 

He sends me to the shop most days to buy cartons and packages of you that I know, while they have a place in a balanced diet, aren't the best for him when eating so regularly and without the fruit and veggies, etc.

This puts me in a tricky place, food. The very last thing I want to do is restrict him in any way or be even a little bit judgemental. I don't think he's got disordered eating of any kind. I simply think he doesn't prioritize his health as much as I do. Which is fine. Bodily autonomy. But I can't help worrying. He has a family history of diabetes and I think because he is in a socially accepted body, I think he thinks he's protected.

This letter makes me sound like a horrible girlfriend. Maybe I am. What I really crave is a long and happy and healthy life together. How can I approach you, food, in relation to my relationship? Is it possible for someone to feel so much peace with food - too much peace - that they just don't care? How do I help him care? Can I help him? Should I mind my own business?

Love, Dreaming of his health.
