    I’ve always thought it is so interesting how in English, people often say “I am (insert weight)”, as an English language learner it made no sense grammatically but now it makes me wonder how much that affects people’s perspective. So just a reminder from an English language learner, you are not your weight, you weigh your weight.

  • @DevilsTrueLies

    I'm so confused about the misrepresentation in this video. Cutting out so much crucial contextual info to fit your own agenda is really questionable. I don't think I can support this channel or your content.

  • @SturnioloSwag

    Abbey is really judgmental of peoples eating habits if it works for someone leave them alone from what the video shows Theresa seems to have a completely healthy relationship with food.

  • @RandomPerson1313

    I think you are overthinking the mental load of calorie counting. It takes a couple minutes a day at most. It is fast and easy. Some people will have issues with it of course so shouldn't do it. But there are also a ton of people who have no issues and find it helpful

    Please stop projecting your ED on random people, it's exhausting

    I'm seeing a lot of comments saying that Theresa needs to maintain this weight in order to be in top condition for her sport, functioning under the assumption that ballet dancers need to be thin to be good dancers. That is not true. The idea of the thin, wispy dancer actually originated in the mid to late 20th century with George Balanchine. For those of you who don't know, Balanchine essentially created the ballet as we know it in the United States. Not only did he create the standard for ballet choreography, but also the ballet body. He was notorious for only choosing thin, short, small hipper women for his ballets and because he was the standard for ballet, other companies quickly followed suit. Long story very short, dancers aren't thin because it makes them better ballerinas.

    The hate around calorie counting tho... Why... Isn't better to count than just y'know, restrict yourself from eating???

    I generally respect athletes choices to push themselves to extremes for their sport/art... HAVING SAID THAT it's difficult to separate the legitimate athletic requirements of ballet from the unhealthy aesthetic standards set by toxic & misogynistic dance academies.

    love ya abbey but i gotta add, theresa said multiple times in the video that she consumes 2,400kcal a day. the 1,600 is her net calorie total for the day, as she burned off roughly 800kcal during her training. and note that she is in a calorie deficit. so if she were maintaining her weight at the same activity level, she would be eating roughly 2,600kcal a day.

    i did ballet for 10 years and honestly ,what she eats is considered a lot by instructors, I don't think people from outside realize how crazy strict they are and how thin they want us to be. All the girls in my dance school had almost no periods in their teen years cause truth is, unless you meet their weight goals you are never gonna get a solo or leading role.We used to eat cotton balls to fill our stomachs before auditions so we wont eat food ,teachers will in fact comment about how fat you are and how that's not gonna get you anywhere every day. there's honestly so much to it that id say she is relatively healthy compared with others I know

    Tbh theresa seems to be making sure that shes eating enough. I think abbeys past with ed has clouded her view of everyone.

  • @KatySC

    I don’t think it’s fat phobic when she mentioned that comment about the calorie vs volume difference of olive oil and steak. I feel like she’s basically saying she wants to eat a satisfying meal over a table spoon of olive oilwhich won’t satisfy her, give energy or contribute to her daily vitamins

    This is a waaaay better then the "Diet Coke and Cigarettes diet" I witnessed as a former professional dancer/ballerina in the early 2000s

    I have kind of a different perspective. For the last ten years, I battled with an ED on and off. Nowadays, I'm a calorie counter similar to Theresa and while it is a lot of work to measure all of my food, it's actually super helpful to ensure I'm eating ENOUGH and getting ALL my nutrients in. Without calorie and macro counting, I default into overly restrictive and harmful habits. So, for the meantime anyway, it's a great tool to keep me in check. As Abbey said, different strokes for different folks :).

    I don't understand. You say that her regime can mask hunger... then you say she needs to listed to her hunger queues. It sounds like the counting helps her realize when she is undereating and needs more- hence the added cereal at the end of the day.

    god, i remember watching that video YEARS ago. never thought i'd be watching it again

    Did she miss the part where Theresa says she consumes over 2k calories? I’m so confused

  • @audreybringgold6217
    @audreybringgold6217 Před 2 lety +823

    I used to calorie count I found myself going to more pre-packaged foods with labels rather than cooking for myself and using whole food recipes because that was more work to calorie count. Now that I don't calorie count I feel like I actually eat better from like a nutritional getting my vitamins and minerals standpoint
