THIS. People always bitch about how unfair it is that a seemingly small percentage of people can eat "whatever they want" and not gain. It's because THEY DON'T REALLY EAT LIKE THAT. Annoys me to no end.
YupBella is officially waaayyy better than Gigi. Face and bodywise
They should hire a stylist
Bella's outfit here is a lot better than Gigi's
Agree -- in society we already have debates over models/magazines/photoshop, etc inspiring eating disorders and body dysmorphia... so yeahhh, adding in deceptive messages about food and diet is the last thing any of us need in all this
I used to be one of these girls--I was really young, and would eat what I saw thin celebrities eating, and was so confused why I was 10-15 pounds heavier than I "should" have been given their supposed diets. Only when I restricted to around 1000-1200 did I lose the weight, and it dropped off really fast at first.

I was exactly the same - would read celebrity diets in magazines, follow them to the letter, then be genuinely incredibly distressed at how my body was "broken" and I just "couldn't lose weight." The propagation of gross misinformation about diet and weight loss so as to appear that one eats "normally" really bothers me.
That's great and all but she is losing whilst telling young girls that that's how a model eats. It's unrealistic and makes people question why they aren't losing weight even though they are eating like Bella Hadid
I'm 24, and maybe I'm younger than you but it was still there in the magazines growing up. Eating disorders were just starting to become a public awareness/outrage, and all the skinny celebrities were pioneering our beloved tactics for making people think it was all natural.At my age (haha that makes me sound so old.. I just mean late 20s) I lived through a time before the whole "relatable" thing,
Call me a pessimist but still doesn't do any good most of the time. The people who work with me see how I eat - no hiding it lol. When I tell them to eat less, they just say it's "too hard" - and I get it. It is hard. Life is hard. But it's easier to say "that girl has an eating disorder, that's why she's so skinny" instead of "she busts her ass and sacrifices to look the way she does". That's why people still think JUNK FOOD is part of a "healthy" diet. Like really??!? You've got to be fucking kidding me... but the sad reality is that this is how they actually think.Sometimes I wonder if people weren't so tetchy about EDs, if we could be more honest.
also, because real eating disorders are very complex and not exactly something that "sharing" or talking about will fix, unfortunately.Call me a pessimist but still doesn't do any good most of the time.
