 Welcome back to Every Way Woman, so we're talking social media, and I want to have a discussion on what Facebook can do on your body image. I see you working out on Facebook all the time, Felicia. Yeah, gotta work that sweat off. But I do find it motivating. I'm not gonna lie, it makes me feel a little bad about myself. Really? Are you kidding? Why? Why do you feel bad about seeing her work out on Facebook? Well, no, just in general, I think a lot of times it's easy to compare yourself to this idealized version of your friends or the people you're following, and it can really have a negative start to my day. I stopped even looking at it before I got out of bed, because I thought, you know what, I'm gonna start my day me and not compare myself to anybody else. But I think a lot of women are dealing with the same thing. Am I wrong? I mean, what I will say is that I think it's, I like being on Facebook because I like seeing what all my friends are up to, all of the great things they're doing, traveling the world, and even if someone looks better than I do, it's like motivation for me to get my butt in the gym tomorrow or that morning, you know? And then if they're doing like new beauty, you know, they have a new hairdo or makeup or something. Like Mariana? Yes! I'm like, oh, I wanna try that pink lipstick in it, like tell me about it, you know? Well, the first thing that pops into my head is regarding body image. Sometimes I don't even believe what I see, even on Facebook. A lot of things are Photoshop guys, like, you know? It's true. Everybody can Photoshop and filter and take away a little mark here. For a transfer, XX Pro, I look a lot better with my hands. I'm a lot thinner. But I can relate to you a little bit. I mean, I think, depending, like when I was younger, I probably would have looked at that, like, threatening, you know, looking at pictures of models of, you know? Well, and what's interesting, it's not even Vogue anymore or any of these other high fashion magazines. It's like looking at these hot friends from high school, you know, what happened to their bodies and what they've got going on that you might not have. I totally have this deer in the headlight look. Yeah, you just see, you're just like... Because I'm struggling with, I don't do a lot with Facebook. I know I should. I do for the show, but for the body image for my daughters, I just think that it's... Well, truth be told, my daughters don't do Facebook because they say that's so passé. It's Instagram, but the pictures are still the same thing. Okay, sure. And they say most of the time that those pictures are not real. People have Photoshopped them. They'll put somebody else up that is not filmed, kind of like that catfish thing. So you feel like the next generation is very aware of, you know, how fell these things can be? Yes, exactly. And I think that they just put it up for the moment. So for someone to feel insecure about that, I don't know, because I don't think it's really true half the time. Not to be wrong, but I don't think it's really true. I mean, I have met a lot of girls that I follow on Instagram, and they're beautiful. This one girl has like 200K followers because all she takes is selfies. Everybody, huh? Right? You know what's interesting now? On that note is that I've seen a lot of girls with eating disorders on Facebook, on Instagram. They're hashtagging ProAnna...Anna, they call it. ProAnnaRexic website. Hashtag BikiniBridge, where it's literally, you know, the bridge over your hip bones on a bikini. That's dangerous. Okay, so let's follow with that. Are they posting actual pictures of what they look like? Actual pictures of what they look like to inspire these other girls. And instead it's feeding into literally eating disorders. It's feeding a lot of followers. Absolutely. Millions and millions of girls. Young kids think it's cool. I mean, think it's hot. In college, one of my college best friends was Anna Rexic because of who she was following on Facebook. She's like, look at this model. She, you know, says that she barely eats a salad a day, and she'll have a granola bar a day, and that's it. And then she started doing the same thing. You are kind of dumb for doing that. It's the society we live in, I think. I mean, we have to be careful. I think with our kids, I don't have kids, but I know if I had a kid, I would be very hesitant in getting them on Facebook or social media because of that. But you know, the body image places all over the place. We're talking about Facebook, but it's everywhere. But don't you think social media just kind of takes the next step? Well, yeah, because that's what's in front of the young people now, is that Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, Vine, all these things. I do. I have to. I got teenage daughters. But at the end of the day, the body image conversation, I think, comes from at home. And I don't necessarily want to stay because we're talking about Facebook, but it starts at home, and I think if you take care of that, it will cover all of those social media outlets that's portraying where the body image should look like. Right, because me right now, I wouldn't even be endeared into anorexia on media. I want to see, you know, the most popular fitness program, the most popular trainer right now and follow them in their work ethics and what they're eating. That's where that comes in handy, what they're eating. What they're eating. You know what they say? People look like somebody you better eat like that. Yeah, because there's a lot of nutrition ways of eating. Like, people fight. I didn't even know the whole thing of juicing. My sister started juicing. And she juiced on her Facebook? No. I'm not juicing yet, but she is. And she found it through Instagram. Okay, well, find some of Anna's juicing tips online. We'll be right back with more Every Way Women. Stay tuned.
