The Human Hourglass
Thanks to everyone who sent me links and photos to Romanian model Ioana Spangenberg. Is that the best name ever? It is like a James Bond name combined with an Austin Powers name. If Ioana is pronounced I-Wana then it is truly gold. Apparently Ioana has a 20 inch waist but the rest of her is curvy which is why she has been called the human hour glass. She says that for the longest time she felt like a freak and would do or try everything to gain weight but that the waist acts as like a natural gastric band so there is only so much she can eat before she gets full. She also says that when she was younger she could not get a date because only curvy women were getting dates so she sat on her couch trying to eat as many candy bars as possible. You know what? I actually believe her. She is not trying to bs us about her weight or the line about the natural gastric band. I think she is just someone who cannot gain weight and has an attribute to her body that she cannot really change. And why would she want to? She makes a very decent living as model, but only recently got into it at the suggestion of her husband.

it's painful to see
Oh, Enty, I wish you hadn't said that last line because my fingers be itchin' right now! EEK
Yes, and it’s making me feel sick.
I googled her image(for the team!) and OMG, she’s horrendous without clothes on!
Enty, she's anorexic. I don't believe her either. This is totally and completely unnatural.
FYI for curious CDANers - this is from an anorexia porn site and the don't Google warning is related to that.
Super sketchy gross stuff unless you LOOOVOVVEEEEEE super sexy bones.
Or if your idea of a good time is having sex with a bag of antlers.
Couple of obvious clinical signs that she is anorexic...Her skin basically sticks to her muscles (poor skin turgor - I can't test it, but looks obvious), her hair is thinning and looks to be receding from the forehead, her skin is pallor, protruding bony prominences. She's definitely a fair woman, but she has absolutely no healthy tone to her skin.
@RenoB, DON'T LOOK. I made that mistake last night. Clicked on a anorexia fetish site. I almost lost my lunch (dinner). Anorexia is sad, but god, the people who are sexually aroused by someone's sickness? So twisted.
I must have oppositional defiance disorder because I totally just googled it with safe search off... I shuddered....and very few things make me shudder! I will never be the same sigh
She is a human Barbie. Ewww....
I don't believe her at all. She weighs 86 pounds, think about it for a minute. Also, if her stomach was deformed like that, fine, but why are her arms and legs skeletal?
thanks for the heads up! I hate that kinda stuff.
I had a Aunt who was not anorexic and had a serious time gaining weight. People were forever making comments behind her back. Who knows, if she is unable to eat only so much, wouldn't that make her skin and hair, etc respond as if she were anorexic?
Bullshit. She got that body from puking and corseting.
She was also wearing a waist cincher in some of the photos, so it's obviously not natural. It made me wonder what a waist measurement should be. I found a website that said that, at 5'2", my waist should be 24 - 25 inches. I haven't seen that size since high school! Kate Middleton is said to have a 23 inch waist, and Angelina Jolie a 24 inch waist.
Actually, she looks like she's been 'training' it for years. I ain't buying the 'natural' bs, sorry. Looks like a corset job to me. She probably also had a couple lower ribs removed.
I am ordering an entire pizza for lunch in her honor.
My mom couldn't gain weight and people called her anorexic, she had huge boobs tho. Because she was so underweight, she had to take some kind of medicine to make her menstruate which she didn't begin to do until age 19.
I do not believe her. Not for one second.
why is anyone talking pics of this woman. except for Guinness Book Of World Records?
Please. Look at the bones of her elbows jutting out, and in the pic you posted of her, her hair is strategically placed to hide protruding clavicles. Look at her twig legs. She's either lying or delusional, and obviously suffers from an eating disorder or two.
OMG, that's just awful....
Right, Paris? If this was 20 years ago that is what she would be posing for.
I can't stand how she can say she's healthy and viola, so many people just believe it's all natural. COME. ON.
Thanks to the folks here who did the Google search - I was really curious but what you reported back just killed any curiosity I might have. Thanks!
No way am I doing that Google search after the comments here. She just looks strange.
Nope! No way this is natural! I noticed from photos of her that her waist is MUCH smaller with clothes on than in the lingerie shots. which feeds my corset suspicion. Bones protruding everywhere, & you could drive a Mac truck between her thighs!
I know there are naturally thin people who can't gain, but they don't look this unnaturally bony...
To prove you are "natural" is easy. She just has to provide her photos through the years. She is 30 now, so photos since she is 18 would show the figure development
There's anorexia fetish sites?
I refuse to do a Google search, but I wish I didn't know those existed. But then again...Rule 34.
Awful and sad. Take the picture down. Please.
Here's a quote from NY Daily News commenter:
"I saw her talking in an interview and she proudly admitted to wearing tight fitting corsets for most of her life 24/7!!!"
That's what I figured. It's like the Chinese and what they used to do to feet (binding). You force your body into this, nature doesn't.
She's sick.
her waist has been trained...it's pretty obvious.
@Skittle Kitty
I was just coming to say the same thing. You beat me to it.
I change my mind; there IS such a thing as TOO thin! She looks like one of those starving people on the cover of National Geographic.
I googled too and it's actually interesting to see her bare hips (she's not completely nude.
It literally looks like a living skeleton in those pictures. whoa.
Co-sign that she's prolly anorexic but even if she's not and is really 'naturally' thin, still, promoting this degree of such extreme extreme thinness by modeling isnt the best idea for the ever body-conscious modeling industry. I can only imagine what young 14 and 15 yr old girls with modeling aspirations are thinking as they stare at this picture today. Will pressures to be thin and examples of those who've 'succeeded' at it never end???
Where are her innards? Corsets are why so many women died during childbirth.
As for fetish sites, there's a site for everything. If you can't find a site for your fetish, you are one disturbed individual.
HOTTTTT! sexxayyy, nasterovia!
Just wanted to add, in light of the Karl Lagerfield post today, that this woman IS probably like visual porn to Karl.
10 bucks says he passed out on the spot in ecstasy after learning of this woman.
It was especially disturbing for me to watch the video of her walking. *shudders*
I don't think she looks too bad until you see the difference between her hips and waist - that's kind of gross looking.
bag of antlers, too funny.
Had to look at the images - ewww, ribs and hips should not be poking out like that. But she's no worse than Leann Rimes and the rest of them.
I'm wondering if it's too late for me to try the waist cincher thing, I have an over sized waist so I could end up looking normal proportion wise perhaps.
Hi Black Cat, thanks --
if you're not into breathing you should definitely give that cincher a go...
What @Sue Ellen Mishkey said to @Skittle Kitty. :0}
Totally found by, well, I don't know what... Certainly not "luck"... She's on this crazy skinnyfans site, here: http://skinnyfans.com/tour.php?page_nr=26
You can see that she cinches herself, and notice the bone markings on her skin where her waist is bare. I rest my case on the anorexia, and there's absolutely NOTHING natural about her figure. Looks like you could play xylophone on her ribs man!
I couldn't even look at the photo enty posted without wanting to vomit. No way am I going to google this chick!
