In today’s episode of Bite Back with Abbey Sharp, I’m joined by the hilarious Jessi Cruikshank to unpack the damage done by early 2000s diet culture — and how the media shaped a generation of millennials who feared fat and worshipped cellulite-free bodies. We chat about what it was like growing up on low-fat snacks and tabloid shaming, and how that legacy still lingers in motherhood and media today.
We also get into Jessi’s unique insider take from years in Hollywood, from The Hills: After Show to her hit podcast Phone a Friend, plus her thoughts on Ozempic, Botox, and the pressure to “bounce back.” And of course, we talk about raising kids who don’t inherit the same body image baggage we did.
