Another fabrication in the world of Dilemma I doubt she knows the meaning of the word fast, let alone actually undertake one. Eating is to Bab is what oxygen is to the rest of the world!!
i fully agree that babnocchio would never have taken part in a sponsored fast - 24 hours without food?! she couldn't manage 24 MINUTES without a sugary snack! sponsored fast were definitely a thing though - i remember doing them in my teens, first to raise money after the big tsunami, so i was about 15 or 16? i was very committed to it, pretty sure we were advised not to. eat absolutely nothing, but i remember surviving on just water for 24 hours. after that, it was my go-to choice when i wanted to raise money for charity - but more because it gave me an "excuse" to justify not eating for 24 hours as at that age, alth i didn't realise it at the time, i was developing an eating disorder and constantly looking for ways to "get away" with skipping meals.
my own experiences are exactly the reason why babs' "90s diet culture" bullshit fucks me off, because waifish heroin chic phase really DID affect me, not that it caused my eating disorder by any means, but certainly emphasised the way i equated perfection with emaciation and exacerbated my desire disappear. meanwhile, babs is lying about how she was SO impacted by diet culture that even now, she always opts for a crunchie over any other chocolate bar because diet culture taught her that the honeycomb filling is lighter - i have never once seen the braggy
twit eat a crunchier. she's usually downing full Easter eggs, multipacks of creme eggs or consuming her body weight in haribo. she has aPsolutely no idea
