Quote #164081
I think I’ve done every crazy diet there was in the beginning, but it’s weird: I’m thinner now than I was when I was modeling. I don’t obsess about it.
Molly Sims

Interpretation
Sims contrasts the externally policed body standards of early modeling with a later, more self-directed relationship to food and appearance. The admission of having tried “every crazy diet” suggests the pressure to conform through extreme, short-term fixes. Her surprise at being “thinner now” while no longer “obsess[ing]” implies a shift from anxious control to sustainable habits—perhaps better health, routine, or self-acceptance—where weight becomes an outcome rather than a fixation. The quote also critiques the modeling industry’s tendency to normalize disordered thinking, proposing that psychological ease and consistency can be more effective than punitive dieting.
