I agree with the sentiments expressed in the Victoria's Secret models thread... they are unrealistically skinny, probably not very healthy, and the messages sent by the fashion industry in using these women as icons are disgusting.

But I was wondering... what about actresses like Jessica Biel? She looks fit and reasonably muscular in photos... is she a realistic inspiration? What do I do to look like that?

Various sources claim she is 5'8 and 108-112 lbs (yikes!) but that doesn't sound right... I am the same height, she looks like she has more muscle, and there is no way I have 30 more pounds of fat.

What do you all think about her? How about Jessica Alba? Charlize Theron? Cameran Diaz? (my fave celeb bodies)

Ughhhhh Charlize Theron.... *fapfapfapfapfapfap*

I love that woman. She's naturally very slender, and some will say that she's too thin (especially on these forums).

Jessica Alba and Jessica Biel are very realistic inspirations. Not overly thin like most actresses who are sucked into the pressures of being stick-thin, still have the feminine child-bearing hips and curves in their bodies, yet still have muscle on their bones.

I don't remember where I heard this from, but supposedly Jessica Alba has said that obesity runs in her family, so she works out to avoid that.

jessica alba works out and eats healthy but shes not super lean, its a different look to say a figure competitor.
What would one eat to look like jessica alba vs figure competitor? or even a victoria secrets model....? just curious...

I can't imagine that Jessica Biel only weighs around 110 lbs at 5'8". Based on photos of her that I've seen, I'd guess her more like 130-135lbs. But as far as hollywood physiques go, I'd say she is pretty heathly and that she is setting a good example.

My hollywood physique idol is Madonna. She looks hot even at 40 and its quite obvious that she hits the iron seriously.

I have heard/read this also. I really think she has a great body, and it is good to know that she is healthy too!

I love Jessica Beil. She's a beautiful woman who hasn't bought into hollywood's obession with uber thin-ness. She looks fit and atheletic. It's clear she must do some weight training. I think a body like hers a healthy and realistic goal.

I love her too. She has such a beautiful face and I love her body - slender but not toothpick-thin.

I'm glad everyone agrees with me about Jessica Biel. I was a little worried there when I read what her weight allegedly is about my ability to discern "healthy" from "anorexic". But I agree, she doesn't look anything like 5'8 and 110 - closer to 130 probably.

That was pretty interesting! I wonder if Jessica Biel does the plyometrics and lifting in the the same day? And how many times/week she's doing her cardio.

No I think she's hot and I'd love to look like that but I read in a bunch of places that she weighed 108 at 5'8 so I wanted other people's opinions on if they thought she was healthy or not

The reported weights (and measurements) of celebrities are almost always much smaller then the real numbers.

I love Jessica Biel's body shape - she looks very very fit (and healthy) which is uncommon for most actresses.

I can't agree about Jessica Alba. Lately she's been looking way too skinny.

Dang, according to the video on abs, I have weak abdominal endurance :(

I thought I was doing so well on my abs, but, planks and side planks leave me sweating bullets! So, now I need to do more planks and less crunches.

Jessica Alba gets skinnier and skinnier each time I see a pic of her...MUCH different from her days on "Dark Angel"....Jessica Biel has a more athletic figure and a butt that won't quit.. and I want to have it!!!

Jessica Alba, like so many other celebrities has reported to struggling with an eating disorder. Jessica Biel def. gives more of that sporty/fresh/pretty type of attitude off, and I would rather have her physique. But in all honesty I would say keep your expectations in check.. celebrities aren't the only ones who you can model your ideal physique after. I personally try to stay away from it because by all we all know how much airbrushing and retouching, tuck this, nip that, smush these together...etc goes into any photo or even tv appearance with real A-list celebs. I personally model my desired body image after that of athletes .. who AIM to look like they can kick butt!

I really would like to know who puts out the myths of what people think is sexy. I can`t speak for every guy. On my job it`s a very diverse bunch of guys, different races and colors. For the most part we love curves, like Jessica Biel,J lo and Beyonca(spelling) Most models unless,they are half nude would not turn alot of heads walking down the street, with no hips,thighs or butt.

LOL at the models not turning heads... but it's so true. I've always worked with a lot of guys and kind of became one of the boys. Very few of them were interested in the skinny girls unless they appeared provocatively posed in little or no clothing, otherwise it was the curvy girls they were chasing.

Jessica Biel recently said:

You don't have to be stick skinny to be gorgeous.
Muscles are beautiful, strong bodies, working out and eating healthy is beautiful.


She has a fabulous body and obviously works hard for it!

I remember when I was 108 lbs at 5'4.. there is NO WAY Jessica Biel is 108 lbs :p

But she is probably hiding her real weight from the media.

I think Jessica Biel is gorgeous. I think that she is a very good role model. I would love to have her body. She has probably put a lot of hard work into and it shows.

I think she has a great attitude as well that is another reason why she is a good role model. Wish that we had more people like her that little girl and "bigger" girls can look up to.
