What does it mean to eat normally? Model Kim Noorda records her struggle to feed her body and soul. With Sally Singer. Photographed by Bruce Weber.
5’10, 110lbs = “heavier model.” i struggle with my own body and image issues and i really relate to those unrealistic, conflicting, self deprecating thoughts. In the end, she doesn’t have a “happily ever after” and isn’t 100% cured and I don’t think I can be either. That critical, obsessive thinking doesn’t magically disappear, but the article ends in a hopeful, wistful note and I think I’ve grown in a way she has and reached a more peaceful place too. I still deal with those thoughts and have my bad days.. but in the end, I’ve learned that I have to be happy with myself. Family and love are what truly matters and I’m just trying to live the best life I can.
