“What I eat in a day,” Moscow-based Kseniia Karpova wrote on Instagram. She shared that she starts her day with a breakfast of rice crackers, cucumber, and scrambled eggs.

How did social media react?

An individual said, “You were tired because you're not nourishing your body. A common side effect of not eating enough.” Another added, “Do you really eat the food? Or is it just for the video?” A third expressed, “This is not normal.” A fourth wrote, “Need to stop normalizing eating disorders. She’s a few steps from hospitalization.”

A few, however, spoke in support of the model, like this person who commented, “Am I the only one that thinks that this isn’t unhealthy at all? She is eating—she’s just skinny, and the 25k steps are throughout the day. She didn’t just do that in like 10 seconds.”
