SOLVED!
[Blind Gossip] This multi-hyphenate woman has been famous for more than twenty years. She is thin. Very thin. So thin that she now has that bobble head look.
She is Mom to more than one child. However, Dad is specifically worried about how she speaks to their daughter/s about food and their weight.
He told her to knock it off, but she can’t help herself. She thinks that the worst thing a woman can be is fat. He’s always taking the children out for hamburgers and ice cream and the like. He wants them to know it’s OK to eat. He’s been encouraging [her] to take the children out for food, too, and to make sure she eats along with them. That’s hard for her. She’s not just worried about gaining weight. She doesn’t like to be photographed while eating. She thinks it looks vulgar.

Mom and Dad:
[Optional] Did your parents ever try to monitor/control your food? Did it help or hurt?
SOLVED!
Mom and Dad: Victoria Beckham and David Beckham
Victoria Beckham has always had a tenuous relationship with food and weight.
Her husband, David Beckham, does not want that attitude to negatively impact their own children, particularly their daughter, Harper Seven.
The issue of unrealistically thin body types raised its ugly bobble head again this week when Victoria Beckham released a photo to promote her VB Eyewear line. The ad featured a frightfully thin model who looked more like a starvation victim than a fashion symbol.
If that is Victoria Beckham’s idea of beauty, it’s no wonder that David Beckham is doing everything he can to counter the effects of that mindset on his own children.
While Victoria Beckham has actually said, “I don’t want to be seen smiling, having fun, or eating,” her husband David is frequently seen hanging out with his kids, smiling, having fun and eating.
Thank goodness he is there to provide some balance!

My mother was obsessed with staying thin and unfortunately I inherited the metabolism and hormone issues from the other side of the family.
She put me on a diet the first time in 5th grade. Yes, it really screwed up my relationship with food and my sense of value, as I was judged by my weight instead of my other good qualities.

My parents were always trying to do something to control my adolescent food issues. Once, in an effort for me to drop weight, my mother put me on yet another fad diet where you replaced all of your meals with this company’s meal replacement….cookies…..oh, the irony. I recall my mother always fighting her weight and in the mid 80’s started off her morning with some truffle-looking cube called Ayds. Heh, whatever happened to that company?

This has to be Victoria Beckham. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her even hold a beverage. Plus, I’ve seen lots of picks of DB taking the kids out for food. I thought Angelina at first, but I’ve seen lots of pics with her holding food, and she’s not really a “multi-hyphenate.”

Angelina Jolie? She’s an activist and a director too so that fits the multi-hyphen part. She tends to wear baggy clothes. Even so, there are reports of abnormal weight loss. Regardless of who it is, hopefully they get help so they don’t teach it to their kids.

Hmmm. She only has one daughter but the first one to come to mind (bobble-head doll) is Kelly Ripa. And Mark certainly seems more laid back.

Yes, my parents were strict about food and let me just tell you how that works out… :/
WorkHardBeNice says
Sounds like Posh Spice aka Victoria Beckham to me.
Optional: I grew up in a “finish everything on your plate” household. It messes with your head and makes food completely unenjoyable.
Got down to 109 lbs after I moved out and still felt porky.
But the other extreme in parenting is just as awful.
calumsmom says
Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos? My parents never told me what I could or couldn’t eat. I think because they never made a big deal about food or how much or little I consumed, it was never about a power struggle between us. I ate what I wanted, and stopped when I was full. Food wasn’t a treat, reward, or punishment.
susied says
Kelly Ripa is the only one who comes to mind. Too thin with the bobble head look. She looks TERRIBLE.
Yes, I was shamed as a preteen because my sister was a skinny twig. It sent me into a battle with anorexia for years. I was lucky to get control and make my way out.

My parents never stressed about my food intake, but the nuns at my Catholic school sure as s* did. They made us eat all the vegetables. Yuck! I love most vegetables except beets and cauliflower. After I chucked up my beets they made sure I wasn’t served them again. I’ve always been tall and thin from moderation, never dieting or stressing about calories.

And yes, my grandpa patted my butt one day when I was about 10 and said, “you’re going to be as wide as you are tall soon.” It has affected me my relationship with eating my entire life. I’m middle aged now, but still have a hate relationship with food. Parents/grandparents have more influence in the minds of the vulnerable than they could ever imagine.

No my parents never said anything to me about what I ate, however, I wish they would have taught me how to eat healthier.

Angelina Jolie. She looks emaciated.

Jolie & Pitt, but if she didn’t listen while they were married, I doubt she’s paying his advice much mind now,… unless he’s threatening to get social services involved, as he can’t be there himself.
Did your parents ever try to monitor/control your food? Did it help or hurt? Yes and hurt.

Sounds like the Beckhams
Optional: never discussed weight. I was an athlete from age 8. Started college at 100 lbs and very healthy.
I think the high percentage of childhood obesity in the US is sad. I don’t get it. Obesity is dangerous and potentially lethal. Social acceptance of fat is mind boggling. parents need to lead by example but usually if I see fat kids, they’re with really overweight parents. Not a great start to a healthy life. Kids being diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes now…

SouthJerseyGirl says

Yes, my mother tried everything but I was always fat. And up until the time I was almost 50 years old, the first thing she would ask me on the phone was “how is your weight?” and as my kids were growing up “How are the girls’ weight?”. Now that she’s in her late 80’s, she’s finally stopped asking.

Too easy – Posh and Becks. It’s sad, really – she does have great bone structure, but it shouldn’t be THAT easy to see.
