Thanks to a new article in Marie Claire about food bloggers, I was introduced to the "Big Six." Six female food bloggers who spend everyday chronicling what they ate and how much running/yoga/spinning they did to burn it off. And oh yeah, they get have millions of followers commenting on their every post. What?! I was just getting used to reading (and feeling bad about) fashion blogs! Now I have to look longingly at the perfect hummus and nutritional yeast salad that some skinny girl who just took a BodyPump class ate? I should be eating that salad! I need to take that class!! And I definitely want to feel smug and content that I finished off my meal with fresh orange slices (instead of the orange gummy pumpkins I actually ate)!!!
Her vs. Me
Even the lighting in her photos is better! You can see how a gal can start feeling insecure. So, blond, toned, oatmeal eating Kath of katheats.com - can I be you today? I promise to only pour organic rice milk into my french pressed tea while I munch on my properly proportioned snack of 7 raw almonds.
And then can you pretty please tell me what the hell "nutritional yeast" is? Thanks.
Kath posing with can after can of pureed pumpkin... ugh.
ReplyDeleteIt's a whole other world April.
ReplyDeleteI read this article and then had to go check out the blogs. They'll all posted hateful responses to the article which I find hilarious. Taking a photo of nearly everything you eat kind of counts as an eating disorder in my book.
ReplyDeleteI agree. Can we talk about the ONE apricot Kath brought (and documented) on her 7.6 mile run: http://katheats.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/IMG_7188-640x427-2.jpg Nothing our of the ordinary there!
