as an italian girl, hearing someone referring to pasta (refined grains) as 'all that crap' gives me chills

I didn’t even realize that I had disordered eating until I started watching you. You’re fixing me and I didn’t even know I had to be fixed. I am so glad I found you and your cookbook!

She comes across as so joyless and overly intense when she talks about food. When I think of all the people you’ve spoken about on your channel, I like the ones who enthuse about and really savour what they eat.

Jillian has always come across to me as an angry person. Unhappy and frustrated. I don’t respond well to being bullied and that seems to be her motivation when training.

The information from Jillian is fine, general in fact, the problem is that she serves it up dripping in a " come on people this is basic information". To me, hearing Abby with zero judgement is much more conducive to learning info about trying a healthier choice. I love how Abby helps us learn to tailor our nutrition around living our lives instead of the opposite. Thank you Abby.

She adds the “organic” modifier to foods some might consider “bad”, like it’s a holy incantation. She doesn’t feel the need to specify whether the fruits and vegetables are organic.

Part 2 please!!! I feel that this needs more time to fully unpack Jillian’s condescending ways of fitness and nutrition that are in actuality promoting over exercising and anorexic behaviors. Even in her older workout videos she is always talking about “gross fat” in the abdomen and “if you don’t want to be fat then don’t stop”. Hearing that while working out to her videos when I was in highschool was what fueled my ED and “revenge body” mentality. I’m so glad that you Abbey are calling out all the diet culture bs and being a fresh voice of reason!

As an Irish person (from a farming family), I find it so unbelievably weird that in North America you've to define dairy/beef products as 'grass fed' because it's not the norm there. So weird that you don't allow cattle to eat their natural food source which their stomachs have evolved to digest...

“Just spend your family’s monthly food budget on one week of organic food for yourself and tell your infant to put his own damn self to bed because mama needs that 8 hours of sleep. Easy.” - Jillian, if I was her client

Jillian Michaels seems scary, if she was my trainer or dietitian, i’d probably go once start crying and never go back. And the fitness plan on biggest looser did not seem beginners friendly. They should have started with light weights, walking, yoga, strench and work there way up.

I think people need to move to a farm or raise a garden and only eat seasonal produce if they are going to keep worrying a about every little ingredient. Once I went on a blind date with a guy who was happy enough to order pizza, but then gave the waitress a lecture about the chemicals in soda. When we left the restaurant he started asking whether I used organic shampoo. Since he “forgot” his wallet and I had to pay for the date, I forgot to call him back.

but also raise your hand if you’ve been personally victimized by Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred 😩

As a university student studying ecology, who's taken some courses discussing agriculture and ecoculture I feel the need to say (that at least in the US) the reason to eat organic has absolutely everything to do with sustainable agriculture practices and nothing to do with organic foods being any "healthier" for you. For my personal sustainability goals, this means I try to buy organic versions of the food I don't already grow myself. That being said, I fully recognize that organic foods are often times more expensive and therefore less accessible. If you can't afford organic, or even if you just don't want to eat it- you do you! I would also loooove to see Abbey do a deep dive into this, even though I know agricultural practices aren't exactly your forte!

I ate Halloween Oreos for a snack with tea 10 minutes ago. Complete with orange food coloring. They were delicious 10/10 would do again

I used to do one of her workout videos all the time about ten years ago. My mom kept it, so I decided to try it again about a year ago. I couldn't get through it. And it wasn't because I was in worse shape than before. My mindset and the way I think about my body had just changed so drastically that I couldn't stand her yelling and demeaning comments.

I can’t watch this one because Jillian is a huge trigger for me. Watching the biggest loser fed into my bulimia and anorexia in a huge way. Super glad you’re unpacking her! Thanks for everything you do, Abbey!

When I was heavily overweight in university and wanted a good quick workout, I read great things about 30-day shred and bought it to use. The shaming rhetoric and constant toxicity were enough to turn me off of fitness until I was 26 when I started my continued health journey. Shame does nothing for anyone, and the fact that Gillian monetized her cruelty speaks a lot about our society’s judgment on bodies that’s very unfortunate.

It's hard to break the "good food bad food" language when that's something that's instilled in us at such a young age

Jillian Michaels aided in my anorexia in high school. Now I am in no way blaming her for my choices, as I was solely responsible for my actions, but I was much less knowledgeable and so easily susceptible to molding. I watched her on Biggest Loser and followed her on all her talk show appearances, and "learned" a lot from her. Again, not her responsibility, and gossip magazines were a giant part of my "education" as well. But her name, face and voice will forever be embedded in my mind.
Really really proud of myself for moving so far away from her, as well as my former lifestyle.

In terms of making shorter videos, Abbey please don't! I love the longer length videos!

I can assure you if a person in a ‘larger body’ ate a bite of their child’s Mac &Cheese a lot of people would be critical and would be happy to tell them. Jillian knows this because she is critical of anyone in a larger body.
