About everything.I'm Mila, a woman from Eastern Europe in my 30s, and I'm addicted to food.I'm joined by Babushka - my inner cynical critic, the voice that wants to feed me and then ask why I'm fat. This is an experiment: if I give her a voice, if I expose her, will I still believe her?This is recovery in real-time. Messy, honest, and still figuring it out.New episodes every two weeks.

    Episode 2. My parents - my food dealers.

    Well take this Babushka, I'm publishing episode 2.The first text my mom sent me: "We love you." I was almost thirty. My parents loved me through food and discipline. They witnessed my secret eating, tried to help with diets and willpower. They didn't know: food wasn't my problem. Food was my solution. My father said no man would marry me if I didn't lose weight. I blamed him for years. Until I realized I believed it first. We're close now. We've healed. We say "I love you." But some hungers don't get fixed by better relationships. This is Episode 2: My parents, my food dealers. Content note: Discusses adoption, body shame, and food addiction.
