If this series teaches me anything, it’s how many people in the public eye have serious disordered eating issues…
🙁
Being a disciplined person does not mean ” serious disordered eating” really a shame this comment section is tearing down Kelly a lot
I was seeing a therapist who specialized in eating disorders in NYC. She has/had (i don’t see her anymore) quite a few celeb clients. I can confidently say that any women in the industry who is “naturally thin” has an ED.
baylor williams The issue is that the disciple comes from made up rules. She’s put restrictions on herself that don’t exist. It would be really disciplined to not have sex for 10 years…but what’s the point and what’s the motivation? Discipline is fine but I think we should question why someone is being so disciplined about an aspect of their life and if it makes them happier or sadder.
@l bailey there is no need for ‘discipline’ with food. Food is nourishment and joy for our bodies.
I feel like Kelly has been held to/holding herself to such a high standard for so many years. I appreciate her honesty in what she does eat.
100%!! I actually LOVE her and I do get the sense this is kinda her personality so as I said, I totally get why this is her attitude towards food. But still, it definitely seems like a lot to keep up.
@Abbey Sharp I love her too, she seems like a sweet lady! Definitely a rigid diet.
i’m honestly not surprised. she’s been in front of the camera for as long as i can remember. 30+ years?
@Abbey Sharp Imagine what Kelly has been missing out on – all this delicious food you can eat if you are healthy. Homemade cake, chocolate, fried food- I don’t want to be in her place or in anyone’s place who is under pressure of looking good in public.
@Melina Burkhardt same. I think about that all the time and how grateful I am
Not to be watched every day. I couldn’t handle it. It’s even hard for me on YouTube to have my body scrutinized (esp as I went through pregnancy and pp)
Imagine being so rich and famous and not even being able to breathe, eating all those boring foods, and calling a chocolate covered almond an indulgence.
I don’t even know her… and it breaks my heart.
You would have to have money to eat/supplement that way….$$$
@Finding the Silver Lining and what a waste of money that would be…
T South depends… there is a distinction between old money and new, between people who have worked hard for it and those that love to tell you that they have, a distinction even how someone in Hamburg would handle wealth and someone in München (and that’s within one country)…
Income has nothing to do with food preferences – it may have a role in food *choices* but not food *preferences*
After some of the feedback I’ve gotten on this video, I just wanted to say that my comments are never meant to be mean spirited. These are genuine reactions, and as I always say in my videos, this is meant to be educational and entertainment. This is youtube, and as I stated when I started the celebrity harpers bazaar series, I was going to be a little more off the cuff with it. Having said that, I always try to be mindful of language and offer trigger warnings when I can. So while these topics are sensitive, I try to bring humour and sarcasm to the table to make it more enjoyable to watch, while still educating and offering advice for the masses. None of this is meant to criticize the celebrities themselves. As I stated, it’s simply a jumping off point for educating about nutrition.
Your videos are so informative, I have learnt so much from them. Thank you!
The rich and the famous. Too much money leads you in strange ways.❤💟
I thank you for your information, but I did have to fast forward through most of your critique. I’ve always appreciated your obvious effort in looking for the positive, and I didn’t see that happening here. I could be wrong since I didn’t listen to the whole thing. We have so much negativity out there these days I just didn’t want to volunteer to hear more. Critique yes, bash no.
I’ve learned how to look at food more normally because of u Thank You I really appreciate the honesty Don’t mince your words because someone on the internet is always going to be offended I want you to tell me straight up why this is a bad way to look at food It really helps me to not look to disorderly ways of eating Your videos r great and I know they r not meant to be mean or shame anybody
Honestly, I’m struggling to see how someone could deem this as a bashing video! And this comes from someone who usually doesn’t appreciate how easily Abbey can categorize some things as so called diet culture. People are actively using word “discipline” here, but guys! Word “discipline” implies that there is some logic behind Your routine. You can call disciplined a bodybuilder who’s prepping for a show – they (most likely) use time-proven diet types and methods for achieving a particular look. But when You have set rules that have no scientific meaning and no logic this is not discipline, this is something completely different. Confusion, delusion, ignorance, misconception… Whatever, but it would be wrong to praise that.
I think that sometimes people get so obsessed about living a “healthy” life that they forget to actually live their life.
That’s true!
Yes..it just becomes another obsession
Reminds me of people’s obsession with viruses lately
Live a happy loving healthy and free life💜…
Called orthorexia
Or they completely overlook that healthy can also be extremely good… I live my life and am still health 😂 why does it have to be one or the other 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
I shall start categorizing my food as “chewable” and “not chewable” from here on out.
😂
😆
🤣
LMAOOOO
Kelly’s gotta be at least 75% raw almond at this point
🤣 YES!
lol. good one :))
Lol
Lmao so valid I can’t stop laughing all these comments r too good😂
Hahahaha
I remember many years ago after Kelly had given birth, she appeared very slim and when asked about it she said she just “ate whatever fell off the highchair,” and I got the sense she was uncomfortable talking about her food choices. Another thing I remember was a piece of advice she gave on her show (that inspired me in my orthorexic days) …it was to just dip your fork in salad dressing instead of pouring the dressing on the salad as a way to consume less calories. I may have missed it in the video, but now it seems she’s more strict than ever & forgoes dressing completely. 😔
Oh no. Thank you for sharing your experience
Wow. Thanks for sharing that
That’s actually a good tip lmao I don’t have an ED but pouring excess shitty oils on your salad is not ideal plus you get some dressing on every bit
@Christopher I don’t think it would be enough dressing if you just dipped the fork alone, but I am liking the idea of individually dipped bites. It would avoid the bottom half getting soggy
@RuminationStationnow THAT’S a good reason to dip your fork in dressing
ED voice: Only a half cup of oats for breakfast, cooked in water.
Abby voice: Come on, now. Bulk up those oats with some non-dairy milk, chia seeds for the satisfying fats, a spoonful of peanut butter for the extra “yum” factor. Top it off with berries for some natural sweetness.
Me: Yes, ma’am 🥰🥰🥰
I love this comment 🙂
That sounds so delicious! 🥰 screw the ED voice!
This made my day :,)
I use vanilla oatmilk in my maple brown sugar instant oatmeal. It’s so satisfying!! Yum. Oatmilk in oatmeal… Feels right. 😎👌
Yay! That’s my families kind of oats. Throw some cranberries and chopped pecans in there!
“And I blend it all together and I eat it like a porridge, if you will”
I WILL NOT
😆😫
😂😂😂😂😂
💯
🤣🤣💀
🤣
It’s actually very kind and generous of you to share your knowledge in such a professional way. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise <3
I can just imagine Kelly not stopping: “sometimes I have cashews… sometimes I have pistachios… sometimes I have pecans… sometimes I have macadamia… sometimes I have acorns…”
Hahaha….. 😂 (“That was FUNNY!”) 👍⛄
Lol! She does look sort of squirrelish now that I think about it…
It reminded me of the shrimp scene in Forrest Gump.
Sometimes we just need to laugh at a very funny comment. Not mean, just so funny…
Everyone in this comment section is hilarious! Hahahah
I have always thought for yearsssss that she had an eating disorder
“First chewable food” and this just kinda validated what I felt
I agree totally. All her saying are so scripted too.
I don’t know why but Abbey’s voice combined with her logical thinking puts me at ease and helps lower my anxiety (racing heart rate, hyperventilation).
I have an “attack” right when I wake up so I watch her on my phone and I feel like idk like I’m not being lied to 24/7 which is helpful as hell.
If anyone should be a mother Abbey should because she seems like she wants the best for people and even when she is criticising, she is constructive and means well. Honestly seems like a phenomenal educator
i’ll listen to older episodes to help me fall asleep. her voice, and, yes .. her logic is calming. 😌
I feel like Abbey is one of the few youtubers who puts proper disclaimers BEFORE she even mentions the triggers. So many start the convo and then say “Oh! this could be triggering!” It makes it stressful to neviage sometimes. Thank you so Abby for being upfront!
I imagine being on national morning TV for decades would DEFINITELY have strong effects on one’s body image standards. Especially as a woman.
Your channel is both helping me eat healthier and keep tabs on my disordered eating habits so they don’t turn back onto a full-blown eating disorder!!! What a BLESSING you are, Abbey. 🥺🥺😍🥰
I love this comment that’s exactly how I feel
Kelly Ripa has misophonia, which causes intense negative emotional and physical reaction to repetitive noises. As someone with severe misophonia, I was very interested to see how she eats since mine has affected my own diet so much. I also may be able to give some clarification. First, her wording of “first chewable food” actually makes sense from a misophonia standpoint. Whether or not a food is chewable is the first thought I have when I think about a food. Chewable food means that it will make sound as you or others eat it, which triggers misophonia. Second, her tenseness during the interview makes me think that she is being triggered during it. I don’t have any proof, but watching her speak reminded me of myself whenever I try to hold a conversation as someone is coughing, sniffing, or chewing. Basically, misophonia activates your fight-flight reaction, so you tense up and your mind doesn’t work as it normally does because it’s screaming at you that you are in danger. Third, I just wanted to highlight the effect misophonia can have on someone’s relationship with food. Imagine that being near anyone eating or slurping causes you intense emotional and physical pain. After years of experiencing this everyday, you start to have a very negative relationship with food. Every situation that involves food is an anxiety attack waiting to happen. Eventually, you start to associate food with pain and you start to hate it. I haven’t done it myself, but I could easily see someone with misophonia only eating to survive and, as a result, only eating the most nutritious foods at all times.
Interesting that you bring this up, because I have this very thing and I am super weird about textures with food. Ironically, my own food chewing doesn’t bother me but I’m a quiet chewer. But I can’t stand certain food textures either. My favorite texture to chew in is crunchy. I put crunchy chips in my sandwiches all the time.
Listening to her talk about what she eats made me feel sad for her. I used to work with someone like that was so rigid with what she ate and when. However, as I got to know her, she showed herself to be rigid in all areas of her life. It was so intense that I felt tense around her.
