I only ever lurk on this thread but I just wanted to say this resonated with me so much. Alice was a massive contributor to the eating disorder I still struggle with daily now. I will never forgive or forget how much she sold her “clean” living and her super thin body which I now realise was very heavily photoshopped. She sold so smugly it as the only way to live, made everyone else feel absolutely inadequate. Then when that way of living started to get called out as being unrealistic and “balance” became the new thing, she totally flipped flopped and changed her tactics to get more money - however, the damage was done for a lot of people. She is no better than the soap stars who sold out for a few fitness DVDs bragging about losing weight, and then a few years later putting it all back on and more and saying how they starved themselves to get so thin. YES and you were fine getting paid to tell other women to do the same!Had a nosey on Amazon. Book is set to come out on the 4th July for a whopping £17.47 for a 272 paged memoir/manifesto hybrid about how she’s allegedly turned her back on restriction. Bet she’s gonna trickle feed more and more about how she had an eating disorder but now she has food freedom.
Alice, loads of people had eating disorders around the time you were in dance. It was the Kate moss era of nothing tasting better than skinny feels. Only difference is most people didn’t go out and make a load of money off the back of it and then make a load more preaching freedom without ever taking accountability for being a problematic social climber, hell bent on getting famous no matter what your “advice” does to other people.
Next thread title?The Artist Formerly Known As Clean Eating Alice
Thread title suggestion - inspired by this photo!This is actually how I imagine she spends most of her day! Then gets up and spends hours taking and filtering selfies to make her look like a different person.

She’s cringing me out sooooo bad. You can just tell this weekend her main priorities are how she looks, and her photographer getting good photos. This is the woman who hired a professional photographer to follow her around at her 30th birthday for gods sake. I cannot wait for it to be over and for her to spiral!What, ever? You'd think she was dying.
My vote for next thread title.It’s a wedding, not a personality.
