An almond mom is a mother who imposes unhealthy eating habits and harmful expectations about weight and body image onto her children, especially daughters.
The almond in almond mom is a reference to a 2013 clip from the reality TV show The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills in which Yolanda Hadid advises her daughter, fashion model Gigi Hadid, to consume a few almonds after Gigi shared feeling weak from a diet. The clip spread online in the early 2020s, and, by fall 2022, the term almond mom went viral as part of a social media trend where young women satirized harmful behaviors associated with it, especially practices like commenting on weight gain or using expressions like “nothing tastes as good as skinny feels.” The trend opened up a larger discourse on the damage restricted eating (and a preoccupation with thinness) can have on young people, particularly women.

I’ve noticed that too! I think a lot us girls growing up finally saw the pattern and saw how damaging mentally and physically it really was and finally wanted to put an end to it. You are healthier and happier having a positive relationship with food regardless of size compared to someone constantly on diets their whole life and developing eating disorders based off being told their not good or pretty enough

I despise the entire hadid family. so the mother was a kinda C- list model way back when and since her days are over she's survived as an alimony sponge?
I read something about her and Gigi. In high school Gigi played on girls volleyball team because she had athletic ability and inclination the mother naturally thought Gigi was a lesbian and arranged for her to see some therapist.
