Gymnast Nastia Liukin is once again raising concerns from fans who feel that she might be “too skinny.”
The Russian-born former American artistic gymnast has shared many videos of her outfits lately, but many fans felt that they were more like “body checks” and even accused her of having an eating disorder.
Gymnast Nastia Liukin Gets Backlash For ‘Too Skinny’ During #GRWM Video
On Saturday night, just a day before Easter, the 33-year-old former athlete took to Instagram to share a photo of herself getting ready for the weekend. She wore a sleeveless black turtleneck with a white skirt that fell over her thighs.
She begins the video standing barefoot on a white carpet, but then takes a seat to skate in black stockings and black boots. Her long hair was pulled back into a high ponytail that fell back. He ends the video with a black backpack slung over his shoulder.
“Weekend fit,” she wrote in the caption, tagging @aliceandolivia for the top, @ganni for the skirt and @prada for the shoes and black backpack. While some fans called her outfit “beautiful” and “gorgeous” and wished her a happy Easter, other fans expressed concern that she was becoming “too skinny.”

Many comments feel that Nastia is getting thinner than when she competed in the Olympics. “The thinness worries me. I know she’s always been slim but I think recently she’s gotten thinner than her usual body composition. Stay beautiful,” commented a fan.
“I was thinking the same thing. She looks amazingly thin. So concerned,” wrote another follower. “Yeah. Trying not to body shame or disrespect but even though she’s naturally thin, there’s just a point where it’s not healthy to your overall health,” another fan chimed in. “I agree with that,” another follower added.

However, there are some not so good comments about it. “Omg, please eat some carbs. No offense,” commented one user. “Can you shut up?” another follower asked. “I hope you eat something too… and choke,” another user responded.
“Am I the only one worried that she has an eating disorder?” ask another user. “If you do your research, you’ll know her mother is built EXACTLY like her. It’s her genetics,” another follower commented, noting that her mother, Anna Kotchneva, 53, was a former Soviet rhythmic gymnast.
This Is Far From the First Time Nastia Liukin Has Been Accused of Being ‘Too Thin’
The five-time Olympic medalist has been accused of suffering from an eating disorder in many of her Instagram posts, including this video in which she is dressed in a long-sleeved sweater and patchwork skirt from Zara.
While there were some fans who called the outfit “so cute” and “killing”, there were many more comments expressing concern that the former athlete was once again “too skinny” and posting a “body check” instead of a fashion video.
“I love Nastia and have since way before the Olympics but this looks like a body check,” one follower commented. “I know you’re just going to delete this or turn off comments, but as someone who has struggled for years with an eating disorder – you sound like you need help. Not suggesting that you have any particular diagnosis, but this post raises a red flag for me,” shared another fan.

“You’re beautiful…but you’re starting to look dangerously skinny, hope you’re okay,” another fan said. “A little worried about you…” wrote another follower. “I am very worried about you. Hope you get the help you need,” another fan commented.
As fans can see from this video, usually when comments get too much for Nastia, she just disables them. Given the recent uptick in comments about her weight on her latest video, it doesn’t seem like it will be too long before she decides to take it down again.
There were more comments expressing concern over her weight when she posted another fashion video showing off her see-through leggings. Fans can check out the Instagram post by clicking here.
