Carrie Underwood is on the cover of InStyle magazine‘s May 2008 issue. In the interview, she talks about her poor body image and her obsession with food. At first, she admits being an emotional eater – after being cheaten on by some of her previous boyfriends, she began drowning her sorrow in ice cream.
“I’m a ‘let it go, move on’ kind of person. And ice cream is my friend. If anybody sees me eating a sundae and I look unhappy, something bad has happened,” Underwood tells the magazine. “I am drowning my sorrows in fudge and caramel and whipped cream.”
The singer also has a serious body image problem! Even though she’s beautiful (and also very thin), she confessed that sometimes she feels disgusted by her body.
“I think about what I look like probably more than I should. But I think everybody is her own worst critic,” she says. “Some days I step out of the shower, put my lotion on, and I’ll be like ‘Ugh, ew, ew.’ ” [Source]
And here’s the worst part – Carrie has become so obsessed with food that she’s started eating less and less, counting calories for all the food that she’s eating.
It’s 5:30pm and Carrie Underwood hasn’t eaten all day… [T]here’s a platter nearby piled with sandwiches. But Underwood sips a diet soda and nibbles on a Weight Watchers bar instead. “Everything shows up immediately right here,” she says, pointing to her tummy.
She rarely goes out without makeup and keeps a food diary: “I’m OCD like that,” Underwood admits. “I count calories, fat and fiber – which is important in making you feel fuller faster – and protein, especially when I’m working out.”
These all look like signs of an eating disorder to me. I surely hope that she doesn’t have one, but if she does, she should get some help before it’s too late!
