These starving tips of the day came from SkinnyGossip reader “almost.skinny”:

Food Tips:

• Teas! There are so many options, green, black, herbal, fruity, spicy… Teas like Chai, which are usually served with a LOT of milk and sugar can still be great with a tiny bit of milk and no cal sweetener (as a plus people will assume its made the regular way)
• Weigh up your options, if you can’t handle the monthly chocolate cravings one square of dark chocolate (20 cals) is a lot better than falling for the slice of chocolate cake (400 cal).
• Eat raw foods (vegetables & fruit) as much as possible, they fill you up for longer with fewer calories due to the higher water content. And you’ll get more nutrients from them.
• Vegetable Soups are a life saver in winter. Made with veggies and water with a tsp of stock powder you can stretch your calories further, keep warm and full for longer! Asian style broths (ginger, soy, chilli, lime, stock + veg) are a great alternative!
• Cocoa powder (unsweetened) sprinkled on low cal fruit- apples, strawberries, oranges etc. is a yummy and low cal, low fat way to kick the chocolate cravings.
• A small amount of home made hummus (puree chickpeas, spices, tiny bit of tahini, no oil) as a dip with veggies makes for really filling snacks. You can water it down and use as a protein rich salad dressing/vegetable sauce.
• Weigh everything!! Measuring by ‘cups’ can lead to unwanted calories, break out the kitchen scales, they’re much more accurate.
• When eating out talk and drink lots, by the time everyone else is full they’ll be more likely to believe you when you say you are too!
• Small regular meals (5-6) are more successful for most people as you don’t feel deprived. 6 x 50cal meals vs 1 x 300cal dinner… your choice!
• Prepare your vegetables ahead of time- chop and portion (you could even cook and freeze) ready for those nights when you would otherwise reach for quick higher cal options.

I’ve been emailing with the vocalist/lyricist of Jussy, a follower of SkinnyGossip, and getting some inside information about some of their songs and their underlying messages.  Jussy has billed themselves as The World’s First Thinspirational Band, with most of their songs being thinspired.

If I scared you away when I shared their first one, Let’s Go Starvros, give these another shot.

“Can You Still See Me?”  (about getting skinnier for an ex):

If you would like to download these songs, they are available on iTunes.

Eating a pastry.  I love the look on Vlada’s face in this one.

OMG… am I caught?

Sweets anyone?

Sitting at the sushi bar…. I wonder what she ate?

I’m curious…. do you guys like it when I post pictures of models eating?  Want to see more of it?

If you are only allowing a certain kind of diet but live with someone make your own shelf in the fridge or pantry and you can only eat off of that shelf…Nothing else. I have a bunch of stuff in there for when my husband is home and then in the morning I move most of it off. Leaving fruit and carrot sticks and diet coke and such….

Erin and Chanel looked as if they were having a great time, playing around and doing lots of different poses.  Candice Swanepoel was also there, however I chose to leave her out.

Chanel is very skinny, she looks so tiny next to Erin.  Do you think she is the skinniest of all the Victoria’s Secret girls?

I think Erin is such a cute girl.  She has a sexiness about her that catches my attention.  Love the freckles too!

Nationality: French

Age: 19

Height: 5′ 9.5″   -  176  cm

Measurements: (US) 31.5 – 22 – 33.5     (EU)  80 – 56 – 85

At the age of 13, Sigrid entered the Elite Model Look in France and was one of three to make it to the semifinals of the competition in Paris.  She lost the competition to one of the other girls; however, shortly thereafter, she still managed to sign a minor contract with Elite Model Management in Paris.  Sigrid (a bit curvier back then) got some small jobs, but ultimately decided to postpone pursuing a modeling career until she finished school.  In 2008, a thinner Sigrid returned to modeling [for S/S 09] – signing with New York Model Management and Elite Models – and continued to slim down even more.

Sigrid has only been modeling seriously for about two years, and has had major success in that short period of time.  She even managed to skyrocket to this big success despite not walking any shows for the S/S 2010 fashion weeks in New York, London, Paris and Milan! I have my own theories about why she skipped S/S ’10, but let’s leave that for the comments.

Her hard work and and weight loss has really paid off, because she’s now her agency’s best-paid girl. In just the past nine months, she’s landed contracts with Dior, Celine, Calvin Klein, Ferretti, and many more.

At the last Fashion Week, Sigrid was one of the most-booked girls:

• F/W 10-11 total shows booked: 70
• F/W 10-11 Milan/Paris shows booked: 43
• F/W 10-11 shows opened: 6 | shows closed: 7

We all know the tip about applying perfect lip gloss and lipstick to avoid over consumption, but remember to stay hydrated in the process! It’s important for your body to use up water to burn the fat off, so you’re not losing water weight. Sip lots of water or green tea through a straw in order to keep your makeup perfect.

“Wasting food is wasting food – whether in a body that doesn’t need it, or in a trash can. The difference is that it won’t hurt the trash can, but it will hurt you.”

Thanks for the great quote Irene!  I love it!

I wanted to point out that Megan’s thighs are very muscular and large compared to the rest of her body.  I think she looks amazing up top, especially her tiny waist, however I think she would look much better if she slimmed down her thighs.  It almost seems like her thighs might touch – kinda gross in my opinion.

Megan is what I would call curvy-skinny.  What do you think?

P.S.  She is yelling at her stepson, so that’s why she looks mad.

When you give into a craving, like having that energy bar or piece of chocolate you shouldn’t have eaten, make it a point to work it off at the gym! Burn at least 1/3 more of the calories indicated on your indulgence to be sure that you’ve gotten it out of your system as calorie counts on most machines can vary by 20%! You will feel much better about your misdemeanor.
