Victoria Beckham is Just ‘Small-Boned’

Victoria ‘Posh’ Beckham has put her skinny-bashing critics to rest by announcing on BBC Radio program, “Gordon Ramsay’s Perfect Christmas Lunch,” that she doesn’t have an eating disorder.
According to Posh, her constant ultra-slim frame is due to strict control over what she eats, and not the cause of anorexia or a similar disorder.
“I eat really healthy, I love Japanese food, lots of fish, any sort of fish, any sort of vegetable, lots of fruit, that kind of thing,” Posh said on the show.
When asked about what she thought of the speculation about her weight in British tabloids, Posh said she didn’t really care what they wrote about her. “I don’t really care all that much. We live in Spain. I don’t really see a lot of the press, and I don’t really hear what’s going on. I’m just past caring.”
Even though she “doesn’t really care” about what the British press think of her eating habits, she still went on to add that there’s a big difference between having an eating disorder, and controlling what you eat.
“I think there’s a big difference between someone having an eating disorder and someone who is controlled about what they eat. There’s a big difference, and every now and then of course I go out and eat what I like. But I do try to be quite disciplined in the way that I eat.”
Posh’s friends have confirmed that she’s definitley not suffering from an eating disorder, stating that she “eats healthily” but “doesn’t exercise at all.”
“She eats more than what people would think,” a friend of Posh’s told People.
During her appearance on the show, Posh also put her two cents’ worth in on the size zero model debate.
“What is a double zero? I don’t even know what size a double zero is! I think models are thin, that’s the way that it is.”
“All of the girls – I know quite a few models and they actually eat, they’re just naturally thin girls. And just because you’re thin it doesn’t mean you have an eating disorder. What is more of a concern is the age of the girls. Some of the girls on the catwalk are 13 years old and that is more worrying to me than the size of the girl, to be honest.” She’s got a point…
