Giuliana Rancic claims “I eat whatever I want,” plans to open restaurant

wenn5622507
E! correspondent Giuliana Rancic’s issues with food are well documented. She said on The View last year that her doctor told her to gain 10 pounds in order to potentially increase her chances at conceiving, but that she’d gained 5 pounds and considered it enough. When Whoopi later commented that Giuliana should follow her doctor’s advice, she hit back that Whoopi’s comment was “ridiculous” and added that she “lost a lot of respect for her.” Then Giuliana told everyone that other very skinny famous women like Victoria Beckham, Gisele Bundchen and Rachel Zoe have children and that “uninformed ignorant people” were trying to tie her issues with conception to her low body weight. Nevermind that Giuliana had already admitted that her doctor told her to gain ten pounds and she couldn’t bring herself to do it, since appearance mattered in her career.

Anyway Giuliana has been in Italy tweeting about her gustatory experiences, and she recently told Celebuzz that “I eat whatever I want.” Maybe that’s the case now or during her vacation briefly, but this was the diet she followed recently. (It used to be on her website but has since been removed.) She’s incredibly regimented and controlled about what she eats to the point where some might consider it disordered. She detailed the lengths she goes through to avoid all oil, butter and sugar which sounds ok on the surface but she’s very picky about it. So you’ll forgive me if I don’t believe this for a second.

Celebuzz chatted with Giuliana who candidly discussed their latest trip to Italy (and all that pasta she ate!), explained how she stays thin and gushed about why she’s madly in love with her husband.

You just got back from your vacation in Italy. How was it?
It was incredible. It was the best two weeks of my entire life.

Lots of people are talking about the picture you posted online of you eating a big plate of pasta in Italy.
Yeah. I went to Italy, and I consumed way too many calories a day, but I didn’t care. Bill and I made a deal on the plane over that we can’t say “no” to anything, including food. Like if Bill says, “Let’s have a crepe,” I can’t say no — even though I just had a gelato, and I’m full. We indulged like crazy for two weeks, but we took really long walks in the vineyards, and we stayed active. And when we got back to Los Angeles, we were back at Equinox the next day on the treadmill.

If you could say anything to those weight critics, what would it be?
I eat whatever I want. I never starve myself. I eat five times a day — if not more. I workout every day and bust my butt to stay in shape, which can be six to seven days a week.

[From Celebuzz]

One of the last things Guiliana put on her Tumblr was a photo of an empty dessert plate with the caption “Farewell to dessert twice a day. Vacation ends now. Back to eating like a human again. Sad.” So she may have eaten whatever she wanted on vacation, but you don’t go from this to exercising a lot and eating whatever you want. She knows what she’s putting in her mouth, but maybe it’s true that she’s not starving herself now. It’s clear she’s hyper aware of food. I don’t care if she diets and counts calories, that’s her business, but she seems to be fibbing about this for whatever reason.

Meanwhile E! reports that Giuliana is opening a restaurant with her mother. She told them that it will be a key part of the new season on her reality show. “My mom’s a great cook, and everyone always says she should open up a restaurant. So that’s also a part of the new season, opening a restaurant. The great debate is, is it going to be in L.A. or Chicago? I, of course, want L.A. and Bill is convinced that people in L.A. will only eat sushi and tofu and they don’t eat pasta.”

Up until recently, Giuliana herself barely ate pasta and detailed her whole plan for dealing with pasta cravings. She wrote “if i just MUST have pasta, I will let my husband order it and have some bites of his. Or I will order a healthy dish and ask for a half order of the pasta (no cream, ever!) on the side. I will eat half of the side of pasta and pass the rest around the table so my friends can try it to. That way you are impressing the table with your generosity and cutting lots of calories.” But now she wants to open a pasta restaurant since she’s eating whatever she wants at all times. She’s just like Goop, right? She even has her own lifestyle blog.

    why does anybody watch this bulemic? What exactly is her talent??

  2. Shay says:

    What did she do after the photo op? Make the mad dash to the toilet to barf up?
    I am so sick and tired of these anorexic bitches regurgitate (no pun intended) the same BS of “I can eat whatever I want, I have a high metabolism.”
    These are the women who pay professionals to hook them up on IVs so they don’t eat, so they can lose weight before official events.

    Yeah they eat 5 times a day…
    5 Tic-Tacs…more like..

  3. Addie says:

    This reminds me of what a diffence there is between her and Nigella who encourages people to enjoy good food, but then again Nigella seems like a more authentic person who maintains a healthy weight.

    Those teeth of hers look so fake.

  4. the original bellaluna says:

    Notice there’s no picture of her with food actually IN HER MOUTH.

    I sure as hell wouldn’t eat at a restaurant owned by her – people who LOVE food should be restaurant owners, not people in a life-or-death stand-off with it!

  5. Kat says:

    Lollypop head + matchstick arms. She looks so ill and the sad part is she doesn’t even realize.

  6. tanguerita says:

    This woman needs physiatric help: she is clearly delusional.

  7. Cherry says:

    Whatever. Don’t even know who this bitch is.

  8. mike says:

    Never, in the history of the world, has a person eaten multiple plates of pasta w/sauce WITHOUT getting the sauce all over the front of a white shirt. I call shenanigans!

  9. lem says:

    the difference between naturally ultra slim women and her is that she doesn’t look healthy! gisele is incredibly thin but I never look at her and think she’s unhealthy. this woman looks like she’s about to fall over due to lack of sustenance.

  10. Eve says:

    I never thought she was attractive but she now she’s just plain ugly. I wonder what people actually ask a plastic surgeon in their first appoitment: “I want sky high cheekbones that will enhance my recessed chin and cadaver eyes that will make me look even skinnier than I already am”. I think that’s what she asked.

  11. Blue says:

    I highly doubt she really wants to get pregnant. God forbid she has to eat and have cravings, oh the horror!
    Moving a bunch of plates in front of you and holding a fork doesn’t = eating. I can’t stand this bitch she tries to hard and is a major ass kisser but then again so are most if these “entertainment reporters”

  12. arock says:

    shut up guilianna, just shut the f up.
    i am so sick of listen to the whinnying, defensive, nasal whine of this rat toothed fame hooker. i dont care if she lives off pumpkin seed shells and kelp as long as she stops f-ing talking about it. make yourself relevant, you under fed chihuahua, and do something with all the spare time you have from skipping meals.
    *om shanti*

  13. Jazz says:

    Skinny bitch please! As soon as these girls start rattling off a list of food they “eat”, you can bet your ass they don’t eat it, at all.

    It never ceases to amaze me that women in Hollywood will quite happily fill their bodies with poison – botox, drugs or whatever, but are deathly afraid of food and a couple of calories.

  14. David says:

    She has weird fish eyes

  15. LadyJane says:

    Seriously, who is she? I can’t be bothered to google it.

  16. courtney says:

    she thinks she’s famous even though she only interviews celebs for a living. thankfully some are smart enough to steer clear of her like Vanessa Redgrave and Franco Nero have never been interviewed by her if they ever were she’d probably hit on Franco like she did on Paul Newman on the red carpet of the 2006 Golden Globes

  17. tapioca says:

    “That way you are impressing the table with your generosity.”

    No, you’re ensuring that your guests go home and immediately call each other up to bitch about your resemblance to a preying mantis, discuss whether your eating disorder counts as anorexia or extreme orthorexia and speculate wildly about whether or not your husband has genuine skeletophilia or he’s secretly, ahem, boning another chick on the side who actually swallows.

    Then again, us discussing her weight keeps her relevant so props to Ms. Rancic for knowing her angle!

  18. lucy2 says:

    She seriously sounds like she has an eating disorder, or at least a very unhealthy obsession with food.

    I saw an episode of Fashion Police a while ago, and she looked really awful – too skinny, too tan, teeth too glaringly white, and her limp hair looked like the ends had been dipped in bleach. Who would take any kind of advice from her???

  19. Blue says:

    Lmao @ tapioca and arock you guys have me laughing so hard with your comments.

    Btw I was eating chocolate chip pancakes and I got hungry reading her “meal plan”

  20. MorticiansDoItDeader says:

    What a fool, fertility and weight are most certainly connected. It is, however, a multifaceted issue. Gaining or losing weight, in and of itself, may or may not lead to pregnancy. I was underweight and, as per the advice of my reproductive endocrinologist, gained weight and became pregnant (with the help of clomid). The clomid alone just wouldn’t do the job. I never once compared myself to thinner people who could conceive because my reproductive issues are unique to me. Her comparing herself to Beckham and Zoe proved how ignorant she is.

    @the original Bella, Agree! I’d rather eat at a restaurant owned by Jessica Simpson. Girl looks healthy and likes to throw back the cocktails. I bet there would be some excellent food and drink pairings!

  21. Judy says:

    OMG, that dress is way too short and wear pumps without straps at the ankles…they cut off the legs! UGH. And, yeah, resembling Olive Oyl is not a good look.

  22. Leticia says:

    The issue is that she does not “want” to eat much food! That is why she is skinny, she doesn’t “want” to eat more than salad!

  23. MorticiansDoItDeader says:

    Also, she appears tone taking a page from the Leanne Rimes book of disordered eating. Talk about all the foods you love and incessantly tweet photos of the empty plates of food you did not eat.

  24. Quest says:

    Whatever she wants = salad, fish and a carrot

  25. Addie says:

    Well there was an episode of her reality show where she was pushing her niece to become a model because she herself wanted to but but never did.
    She was showing her how to do sexy and wild animal poses(the niece was 14)

    This could explain a little why she is obsesed with being’model skinny’

    Girl’s got some issues, I’m sure she wanted Gisele’s career.

  26. Eve says:

    @ Addie:

    I thought that too (she has a “model complex”). Deep down she knows that no matter how many times she goes on diets and plastic surgeries she takes, she’s still not pretty or interesting looking enough for being a model.

  27. madpoe says:

    I wonder:
    1. Does she eat that crap that comes outta her mouth? cos i ain’t buyin’ that b.s.
    2. how ’bout my foot up her behind? since she can “eat anything” right?
    3. she’s a living talking walking lolly-pop head.

  28. TQB says:

    This quote made me really sad: “Bill and I made a deal on the plane over that we can’t say “no” to anything, including food.”

    Anyone else get a pang of sympathy for the man who is married to this sicko, who makes desperate deals with her so that, just once, just for vacation, maybe they could go out and she could eat like a normal person? I don’t know the man, but giving him the benefit of the doubt that he does love his wife, living through her disorder must be a hellish experience of frustration, worry and helplessness.

  29. carrie says:

    1/who is she?
    2/she’s very very skinny(she needs to gain a few weight)
    3/her teeths look fake
    4/ she looks orthorexic:she’s obsessed by healthy food and to be skinny
    5/Bunchen is very thin but healthy and Beckham gains weight when she wants to be pregnant

  30. garvels says:

    This woman has no charisma and gives me a headache. I find it odd when Entertainment reporters try to propel themselves to stardom with no discernible talent besides running their mouth about Hollywood gossip.

  31. Eve says:

    @ TQB:

    I don’t know about her husband, but most men I know hate women who don’t eat anything. They get annoyed when they take a woman to a restaurant and she keeps saying “I don’t eat this”, “I don’t eat that”. They may want women to be fit and sexy, but I don’t think they want them to achieve that by not eating.

  32. mew says:

    Of course she eats what she wants!! She just doesn’t want to eat anything but 5 liters of high caffeine tea and half a grapefruit a day. No problems!

  33. RHONYC says:

    whatevs.

    sunken cheekbones don’t lie. 🙁

  34. Kate says:

    CANNOT STAND THIS INSECT

  35. Eve says:

    @ Mew:

    Of course she eats what she wants!!

    It’s probably just styrofoam shaped and scented like food.

  36. Len says:

    I feel kind of sorry for her. She seems mentally unstable, she’s completely obsessed with food an totally unable to relax. Major issues.

  37. Delta Juliet says:

    She bugs the CRAP out of me. If she comes on the TV, I change the channel.

    And if she’s concerned about how she looks, she needs to worry about more than her weight. She is one very unattractive woman.

  38. OhMyMy says:

    I’ve always found her excessively annoying. I don’t care if she eats or not. I run to change the channel whenever she comes on the tv.

  39. MCWMOMMA says:

    I echo the sentiments expressed by many people….teeth look FAKE, prolly DOES binge/purge, WHY watch or care abt. this person….etc., etc.

    I DO however feel for her fine a*s husb….just wants a baby, happy marriage, & spouse who eats. I wish success for them in having a child, tho…

  40. Anonymous says:

    Rachel Zoe and her need to go together to an eating disorder treatment center. So sad when you have those kind of issues with food.

  41. Green Is Good says:

    Swizzle-Stick here can do whatever she wants with her body/diet/weight, but don’t insult the public’s intelligence.

  42. the original bellaluna says:

    @ Eve – Yup. Hubs told me (and it’s been confirmed by other male friends) that guys really don’t like taking a woman to a restaurant and having her order salad.

    I have my food issues (I don’t generally eat red meat, hate mayonnaise, and I refuse to use margarine), but when we go out to eat, I order real food. And real butter. ONLY EVER real butter for me!

  43. Tierra says:

    Never heard of this chick but she definitely has an eating disorder. Anyone that spends that much time obsessing about food has an issue. I dont judge b/c i went thru that went I was a teen and into my early 20’s. I learned the hard way what a waste of time and energy it all was, not to mention the long term damage the lack of proper nutrition does to your body in the long run.

  44. dleen says:

    shut up already, you are not celebrity, nobody cares about your weight, or pregnancy, or miscarriage, or anything at all………

  45. Kbomb says:

    Ummmm she “LET’S” her husband order pasta? WTF!?? Me thinks she doth protest too much. These assholes who keep posting ‘healthy’ bikini pics (side-eye to Leanne idiotstick) and putting their faces NEAR a bowl of pasta (side-eye bubble eyes)need to STFU and eat a sandwich. Or 23.

  46. Eve says:

    @ Original Bellaluna:

    Exactly (about the salad) because they know that’s not what women eat all the time — so they assume the girl is trying to look like something she’s not. Also because when a girl orders a salad she’ll probably try to have a nibble of his food (like that episode from Friends, remember? I hate people who do that, those who take food out of my plate — not because I don’t want to share but because it’s not hygienic).

    Male bloggers may crack jokes at chubby and fat women, they may make all those hyperbolic statements about women only having to live on a leaf of lettuce and all, or that they’ll get fat if they have a slice of pizza — as if there was no middle ground (meaning, you’re either extremely fat or thin). But in real life they’d be concerned if a girl didn’t eat properly. Unless they themselves have issues.

    P.S.: I love salads — I love steamed broccoli and cauliflower (and yes, I also love things like Brussels sprouts), I’m naturally not fond of deep fried foods and red meat but I love complex carbohydrates. I need that. So extreme diets are not part of my life — whenever I hear people talking about a “new diet” and it doesn’t include all groups of food, I think to myself “I want to see how long you’ll be able to stand it”.

  47. Mia says:

    I dislike her so much. I can’t even muster sympathy for her infertility issues.

  48. MJ says:

    I had to google this woman to figure out who she is, and in the process, saw some “before” photos. It’s really sad – she was very beautiful (and much younger-looking) before the weight loss and surgery. Now she just looks unhealthy and frail.

  49. fabgrrl says:

    I have never, ever met a man who likes bony women. Sure, many of them like trim, slender, petite, tiny women. But not scrawny, skin and bones, types. Nicole Richie, Rachel Zoe, Victoria Beckham (skinny version), This Bitch, current LeAnn Rimes, do NOT have bodies that men fantasize about.

  50. inthekitchen says:

    She comes across as so incredibly vapid and shallow. Yuck.

    WOW, I followed your link to the skinnycurvy site and read about her eating plan and this woman is seriously messed up and obsessed with food. I couldn’t even get through the whole thing, but she has a serious eating disorder in the sense that food (and how to control it) seemed to rule her entire day. What a sad life that must be.

    And to the topic of this post…it is a complete and utter lie that would she say that. There is no way someone could go from that obsessive of an eating plan to “eating whatever I want” …well, unless “whatever she wants” is a cup of laxative tea and 4 grapes.

    I also don’t believe there is any way she actually ate that plate – or even that bite – of pasta in the Italy photo.

  51. Jaded says:

    The stupid cow doesn’t appear to realize that the body HAS to have a certain amount of essential fatty acid to maintain good brain health, as well as healthy skin and hair. You get essential fatty acids from olive oil, coconut oil, canola, walnut, etc. There’s a diet doctor here in Toronto where I live who puts his obese patients on extremely restricted diets like the one she’s on, with absolutely no oil or butter. Two friends of mine went to him and lost a ton of weight but developed horrible skin rashes and their hair fell out due to lack of EFA in their diet. No wonder women like her and Rachel Zoe look like shriveled up string beans.

  52. it is ME! says:

    I have to agree with whoever said that she probably doesn’t really want to become pregnant. As someone who has struggled with infertility (but is finally pregnant), I know the importance of eating healthy and doing what your doctor suggested. It really does increase your chances of conceiving. Her reaction to Whoopi’s comment about her following her doctor’s orders was overly dramatic- Whoopi was just speaking common sense. She needs to focus on getting herself off of her obsession with food before she can focus on a baby. I wish her all the luck in the world, but she most definitely needs to changes her perspectives on some things.

  53. Heatheradair says:

    My take on her has been that until she can prioritize the health and well-being of the unborn child she’s unable to conceive, she’s unfit to be a mother in the first place.

    Until you’re willing to sacrifice vanity for the sake of providing a nurturing, sustaining environment for your lil bundle of joy, you have no business being a parent.

    The irony: she’s afraid to gain weight because she’s in an image-conscious line of work. What she doesn’t realize is that her IMAGE (and people’s opinion of her) would improve considerably if she looked healthy and fit, not emaciated and out-of-touch.

  54. truetalk says:

    she looks like death warmed up with makeup

  55. Tiffany says:

    She just chooses to swallow air five times a day!
    Golf clap.

  56. CooCooCatchoo says:

    She looks like ET! Seriously, too thin and too spray tanned. Obviously has food issues – and she’s replaced the baby obsession with her workout obsession. Doctor told her she needs to gain weight for a chance of a healthy pregnancy. Her husband wants children, she’s not the only person in that marriage. She needs to focus on what’s best for them as a couple instead of just what she wants. Chick needs to get some psychiatric help and perhaps get some marriage counseling. Sounds like her marriage is a bit strained. The issues will only get harder once a baby arrives on the scene.

  57. ladybert62 says:

    That is what I thought also – I cant trst anything she says since she looks like Olive Oyl.

  58. Rita says:

    She should get LeAnn Rimes’ recipe for fried spider webs. (Great with garlic and onion…or one could just eat the garlic and onions…same thing.)

  59. original kate says:

    she looks like a talking stick insect pretending to eat pasta.

  60. the original bellaluna says:

    @ Eve – A drizzle of balsamic vinegar over left-over steamed broccoli, cauliflower, or asparagus is one of my favorite things in the world! Hubs tried it, and now he loves it too.

    I also love Brussels sprouts (but they have to be fresh, not frozen) and salads. Hubs says I should be a “salad chef” at a restaurant because I get so creative. (In fact, I’m eating a salad right now – but not drowned in dressing. I hate that.)

  61. TQB says:

    @Eve and Bellaluna – yes, real men like women who look like real women. A man (or anyone) who loves a woman does not want to watch her waste away and not eat. What fun is it to go to a nice restaurant for your anniversary or something and have her order a leaf? Or know she’s going to eat your pasta and just make a big awkward deal of just ordering soup? Sounds unfun.

    BTW I totally eat what my husband has ordered, because the man is a menu genius and always picks the most amazing dish. But I eat mine too! And there is a huge difference between appreciating that vegetables are delish and subsisting on them alone.

    As for healthy fats, what I have always saluted about Weight Watchers is their insistence that you eat some fats and healthy oils every day. You need them, biologically, and also to feel satisfied.

  62. Ann says:

    A lot of those E! News people are wannabe actors, models and celebs. That’s how messed up the “entertainment media” is.

    She and Ryan Seacrest think they are celebrities and want the same adulation they perceive the actors they interview live on.

    She is really snarky about people’s bodies too. She compliments some people but I think I’ve heard her say masked things about Christina Hendricks and Salma Hayek (anyone with boobs!)

  63. Truthful says:

    she is soo annoying!!

    all she ever talks about is her fake food consumption..a bunch of skin and bones in a ton of makeup and hair extensions..

    she should NEVER talk about food consumption–because she does comsume any.

    won’t be watching that wretched whiny show..I watched one season and that was enough.

  64. kieslwoski says:

    She just infuriates me, people like her in general who say that they eat everything and just exercise regularly and that is how they stay thin. That is a LIE! It is obvious that she has a very restrictive diet! SHe is beyond skinny.

  65. Eve says:

    @ TQB:

    I’d just like to add that real women come in all shapes and sizes. Some are naturally skinny and healthy, others won’t ever be really thin because of their bone structure — we can see that (just take a look at some Victoria’s Secret models — there the ones that even while being really skinny we can see they have hips and thighs, these are the ones that have to go extreme diets in order to have what Gisele Bündchen naturally does, her body frame is narrowish).

    There are women who look better with more weight on their bodies, others look better when they’re slimmer. To each their own.

    It’s the dictatorship of one single standard for what is hot that bothers me.

    P.S.: I actually read an article written by a man saying he stopped dating really skinny girls when during a dinner date a girl had the salad (she had ordered) returned to the kitchen because she spotted “some drops of olive oil” on it. I shit you not. Just some drops of olive oil. That was when he realized he couldn’t take it anymore.

  66. Ruth says:

    Now lets see anorexics are obsessed with food calories and avoiding entire food groups. They maintain unnaturally low bodyweights and have fertility problems. They also have extreme difficulty gaining weight, even if they have to to retain a seblance of health. They also exercise obsessively. They will offer others food or cook for others rather than eating themselves.
    What about this does not describe this woman?

  67. Very Telling says:

    This woman has an eating disorder Where is the compassion and empathy. OOPS I forgot I’m on celebitchy.com.I don’t know anyone with anorexia but don’t they all lie about food intake and are unable to see how thin they are.

  68. Bopa says:

    I would believe her “I eat what I want” story if she’d always been that skinny. She hasn’t. I used to be supper skinny and ate what I wanted so I can see how that’s possible but you don’t usually go from an average weight to anorexic (while eating what you want) unless you’re sick.

  69. Jo 'Mama' Besser says:

    I’m eating at a restaurant and when the praying mantis next to me offers up a quarter of a serving for the entire table to share, I’m not making that face because I’m bowled over by her generosity. The only food-related moment from that ‘candid’ photoshoot is the utterance of ‘low-fat cheese’ she expelled while posing for this (again) ‘candid’ moment. When actually eating, people don’t look like a geometry set like that. I can’t imagine who would go to Italy and a propos of nothing, insist on taking photos of utensils. I think she needs help, but I think she really needs to get out of that arrogant-insecurity cycle that turns experts into figures unsympathetic towards your unique circumstances, uninvolved third parties into caustic haters, strangers into enemies for getting what you say you have wanted and random strangers into sounding boards for your self-pacification. Eating disorders aren’t elegant, they make the people who suffer from them very frightening and dull in their obsession and they don’t look good on TV. Health always looks and feels best’ people who truly believe otherwise are best avoided and if you think you can outrun the building wrath that ever-lengthening time will surely invite, something’s going to hit hard. Hopefully she’ll wise up soon, build the family that I don’t really think she wants, and stop assaulting us with these menus of nothing.

  70. TQB says:

    @Very Telling, I run all out of sympathy when a person launches a website and health plan devoted to help other people develop similar disordered body image and eating.

    She is out in public championing her lifestyle and defending her diet. Her mere existence on TV is damaging countless young women. I recognize she has a personal problem but are you suggesting we just ignore the public problem she has become?

  71. Firecracker says:

    I like to watch Fashion Police, but it’s sick how Joan is always gushing about Guilana. “My precious, my beautiful Guilana, and on and on.” Her hair is stick straight and it’s too thin to be that straight.

  72. mags says:

    i read through her diet, it actually sounds a lot like mine….but i’m very healthy 5’5” i think i’m sticking right around 140lbs or so. (i don’t own a scale). hmm i probably just eat larger portions. and i love olive oil. brussel sprouts + olive oil and a bit o’ salt and pepper is really delicious. i swear. and i used to try to hide my brussel sprouts in my milk when i was a kid.

  73. the original bellaluna says:

    @ Jo “Mama” – Not to mention what the families of those with eating disorders go through: literally watching their cherished daughter/wife/mother/sister/son/brother/husband/father starve themselves to death.

  74. anne_000 says:

    i dont think a restaurant owned by an anorexic-bulimic is a good idea.

    isnt that like a tea-totaller opening up a winery and depending solely on others to tell him if the wine is any good or not?

  75. Violet says:

    She forgot to finish her sentence: “…and then I throw up, take laxatives and/or exercise for hours on end.”

  76. Patricia says:

    Poor girl – she used to be SO pretty. I read through her diet and it doesn’t look nutritionally sound – nevermind her appearence. Didn’t we learn how bad no fat diets were in the 90’s? I hope she gets help soon. She reminds me of Karen Carpenter in the red dress. Sad.

  77. Mrs.Krabapple says:

    Her hairline has receded half-way across her head, as frequently happens to women with eating disorders due to lack of proper nutrition. Victoria Beckham has the same hair loss. Duchess Kate is on her way.

    What I don’t understand is, all these women are married and I presume have other family members as well (parents, siblings), or at least friends. Doesn’t ANYONE in their lives care about them enough to force an intervention? Are the people they are surrounded with all emotionally retarded and care only about a woman’s ability to fit into a size zero? Do they really think these women look healthy and sexy?

    I find that very, very, sad.

    Edited: I’m not saying random people are responsible for someone else’s eating habits. I AM saying that women with eating disorders cannot control themselves – it really is a mental illness, so if anyone in their lives really cared about them, they SHOULD intervene. But in the cases I mentioned, I truly suspect the “loved ones” in the women’s lives are shallow, image-conscious, self-centered people such that they don’t even notice – or worse, don’t even care. That’s what I find sad.

    ok, I feel badly for this woman. On the one hand, she’s got major problems. On the other hand, she reminds me of orange death. That is not a happy thought. I can’t believe how long she has been on tv, looking at her gives me unpleasant feelings and I’m sure this is true for many people. The people who she referenced may be on the thin side but they don’t look like they’re on the verge of death. She’s seriously delusional 🙁

  79. LMS says:

    She’s awful. Just awful.

  80. Mrs.Krabapple says:

    I have 2 more comments to what this woman said: (1) that Victoria Beckham and Rachel Zoe have kids is NOT proof that they don’t have eating disorders. A fertility doctor can help even anorexic women have children through IVF, hormone shots, vitamins, and other assistance throughout the pregnancy to keep the fetus viable. Even women who are brain dead and in a coma can give birth to healthy children.

    And (2) – cayenne pepper irritates the GI track, and so has a laxative effect. Abusing laxatives in order to lose weight is a well-known (and dangerous) trick that models and some women with eating disorders use. For her to say she drinks it simply to “boost metabolism” is disingenuous. All I have to do is look at her hairline and I know she is deficient in essential nutrients. Using laxatives to lose weight can do that to you.

    How can anyone take food advice from someone named Rancid?

  86. kim says:

    she has mental issues obviously and will never have children of her own.

    sad

  87. ER says:

    She’s clearly got an eating disorder, she’s too obsessed with food (what she does/doesn’t eat) not to have one.

    Give her a few years….she’ll be just like the rest of the stick figures in Hollywood who come out with a tell-all novel/article discussing their eating disorders.

    @Ruth – Sometimes I wish blogs were like Facebook where you can just click ‘like’ if you agree. Such truth in your statement.

  88. Annie_Grey says:

    There’s being thin for TV, and then there’s being so skinny that you like you’re in pain. Nobody wants to watch that.

  89. Quercus says:

    I just want to add that this:

    “Like if Bill says, “Let’s have a crepe,” I can’t say no — even though I just had a gelato, and I’m full.”

    is every bit as disordered as her usual diet! Way to undermine your body’s intelligence. Ignoring satiety is just as bad as ignoring hunger. Geez. If her trip was the happiest two weeks of her life, maybe she should try eating in her actual life too. Food makes you feel good, after all.

  90. Jo 'Mama' Besser says:

    I don’t know how tall she is, but I’m very shrimpy so the amount that I eat at one sitting isn’t huge, even my being only kind of thin belies that. There is something to be said for the comparatively non-fattening flavour pixies living in that particular treat. I don’t know, there’s something really, really exhausting about listening to a person talk about all of the things she didn’t eat on vacation.

    We’ll never know (for now) what the people surrounding her think of her illness or what they’ve tried to do for her or what happened as a result. If a fertility specialist can’t convince her that pregnancy relies on a biological mother’s weight gain, or that the ten pounds he asked of her will be swallowed by the 30 more (or whatever) that will descend upon her during the pregnancy can’t be negotiated, so grow up and get sane, you’re dealing with a mindset that screams ‘currently too ill to deal with the realities of pregnancy and a child (maybe more)’s infancy’. That same determination in controlling the weight is exactly the thing that keeps her from what she claims she wants. I imagine surrogacy is an option, but that wouldn’t be addressing the real problem. Insecurity and basic, fundamental stupidity are not a good combination, but they run Hollywood, I don’t.

  91. Kim says:

    Sure she eats whatever she wants – before she throws it up!

  92. Kloops says:

    Anorexic, annoying and lacking any discernible skill or talent. Living the dream, it would appear.

  93. Crystal says:

    That two tone hair is starting to piss me off. She looks ridiculous.

  94. Ruby says:

    I believe your body has to be a certain weight so you can have a period. Ovulation won’t occur until a woman has a specific percentage of body fat. As mentioned she does have the lollipop head look going on.
    Anorexics and bulimics have bad bones and teeth. So sooner or later G will be paying for her bad health choices. Yes I agree that she is snarky and makes fun of others weight. But she should remember fat or skinny Christina Hendricks and Salma H will always be gorgeous unlike her. Yeah I said it.

  95. bugeyes says:

    ORANGE preying mantis!

  96. I Choose Me says:

    She used to be a healthier weight, slim but not this. The weight loss highlights the worst of her features. Now she looks like a descendant from Innsmouth.

  97. Ella says:

    She eats whatever she wants. Except, she doesn’t want anything. I can’t see her ever being pregnant. She’d get one look at her expanding belly and freak. I feel sorry for Bill.

  98. Trashaddict says:

    She keeps talking about flushing out fat with the teas, what the hell does she need to do that for, there’s no fat going in her body on that diet! The best thing we could do for this society is ban all talk about people’s dietary regimens. Including no comments from any man about what a woman is eating.

  99. shane says:

    She has a lovely husband who appears to really and truly love her and who is loaded (which seems to really matter to her). Yet, she is a shell of what she was due to bad plastic surgery, horrible chicklet teeth, and a horrifically wasted appearance.

    As pointed out, she is NOT the celebrity, she is a below average intervier who delights in the spotlight being on HER.

    Her husband is enabling her by going to the media with assertions she is ok and eating when it is demonstrable that she clearly is not.

    Sigh, now to work and the real world 😉

  101. liv says:

    she and ryan seacrest are the reason i don’t watch e.

  102. Anne de Vries says:

    Yeah, that’s disordered eating all right.

    If she can’t bear to gain a couple of pounds while trying to get pregnant, how the hell does she think she could deal with pregnancy weight? I hope she never has a daughter, she’d almost certainly pass on her issues..

  103. Carolyn says:

    Her husband Bill seems like a nice guy. Why hasn’t he been able to help her? Can’t he stage an intervention? She seriously needs help. That she thinks she looks good is crazy.

  104. Carli says:

    she’s cute. why does everyone hate?

  105. X says:

    Lord help us all from hungry idiots who do not know that people in other parts of the america and the world would do anything to have one greasy meal a day because they have no money to buy a decent meal

  109. alecia moore says:

  110. Mitch Buchanan Rocks says:

    Mike your comment is hillarious 🙂

  111. anonymoose says:

    A] @coocoocatchoo…YES! i have said she looks like ET, for years; can’t stand either!

    b} i don’t care about her problems

    c] i don’t care about her
    (does she care about me?)

    d] she totally needs 10 inches of her hair cut OFF. That thin scraggly limp mess is oooooogly.

    e] SHE LOOKS LIKE ET!

    f] her dresses are always too short.

    g] she can’t do anything about the recessed chin, but the fake tan and fake teef are ridiculous. so not flattering. but whatever. cuz i don’t care about this needy attention-seeker. and her scary-looking husby.

    h] WHO would take any fashion advice from this abomination? her own appearance is a huge red flag diminishing her credibility!

  112. CCM says:

    and what she wants apparently is cocaine.

  113. MOI says:

    This woman really believes she is one of the wonders of the world. She is totally over rated in talent and look and she is so immature and fake it makes me sick. She never had any intention to have a baby and she knows her husband only married her to use the fact that she is on TV. She is a random person who seriously believes she has class, taste and fashion sense. When she eats she can’t stop talking with her mouth full of food chewing like a cow. Also, she sits with her legs wide open when she is actually being herself. Her husband seems okay but is now under her control and acts like an idiot sidekick. Their show would have been better if she wasn’t so bloody fake and she looks like she wants to have an affair with any man that winks at her. E nneds a new clasy person who is at least intelligent.
