  • I thought that the 'fat' girl was supposed to be the skinny one at the start...

  • So... My mom is bulimic/anorexic... every time I try to confront her about it she turns it right back around and says I have a problem because i'm a little over weight... I really don't know what to do anymore... Any advice? =/

  • her body is beautiful though...

  • i actually love her body in the  mirror so much, jealous of it

  • I think the woman in the mirror is absoutley stunning. she reminds me of Adele :)

  • this upsets me everytime i watch it

  • My friend was presenting this for an oral presentation today. I thought I was going to burst with tears. :(

  • the ad was so scary ><

    but the girl in the mirror ain't fat shes normal!

  • Rubenesque, I say, Rubenesque..you know those really beautiful women, usually painted nude, from the Italian Renaissance? The Italians thought curvaceous, ample women were beautiful. And they are. Nature makes women curvy to signify fertility. That girl isn't even overweight...she has beautiful proportions anyway.

  • D; This is so sad. I cried when the camera showed the real, unhealthy girl.

  • this advert makes me so sad, the fact that people go through this everyday all over the world, I want to make a difference and help people, so if anyone needs to support please message or visit my blog, the details are on my profile

  • I like commercials about awareness of eating disorders, but how come there basically seems to be no one in the media telling people what a healthy person is supposed to look like for EVERY body figure? I mean all we see what hourglasses can to look like, but there's more than just the hourglass body frame. I think in some ways this is more confusing because it implies that if your not an hourglass (which is genetic) then your unhealthy.

  • i dont like she ad. it's body dysphormia that this girl is displaying, as well as having an eating disorder. a girl thinking they're fat isn't always the cause of anorexia...i dont know, i just dont really like this representation of the illness.

  • What if your a bit bigger than the fat girl?

  • @delaneycheer The 'fat' girl is how most girls look. If you are a bit bigger than her than your probably on a healthy weight. She isn't even fat, look how flat her stomach is.

  • @Foundlilly11 Thank you.

  • The girl in the mirror is beautiful

  • umm the girl in the mirror isn't even fat...

  • @imovercominggravity That's the point

  • @imovercominggravity She's pretty fat. At least when you see her skinny figure you know she's at least trying to be less of a hambeast.

  • @ishockmyself The girl in the mirror is a healthy average.

  • just be amazed. And if you don't lose it don't regard yourself as ugly because there will always be

    someone in the world that will love and cherish you. And you got the upper hand because when man loves youll know its for you. The true you . Remember hun, Outer beauty is temporary, but inner beauty is immortal.

  • 2/2 but he shudnt be saying shit bout me cuz he isnt so skinny either! but da girl he cheated on me always make fun of me i hate my life :( my mom need an opersation or she mite die but we dnt hav da money4 it n my dad duznt liv wit me my brother is an alcoholic n drugadic i get mad fun of i cut.. yes im emo n i juss wanna be skinny if i was i wud be alot happier w/myself ill b pretti ill be perfect(: but 1 day ill be skinny

  • @daddyslittlegirldgh

    Honey your only a pre-teen and believe me I know what it's like to be the fat girl... it hurts. Your gonna blossom and just by eating healthy your figure will shape itself and your going to stand in front of the mirror one day and

  • @daddyslittlegirldgh hang in there sweetie! Don't starve yourself. You are only 113 lbs. You are very thin. Don't wory about what these people or this guys says.

  • 1/2 my bf broke up wit me bcuz im fat..n he was cheating on me.. anyways we wer talking (on da phone) his name is brandon.. conversation.. Brandon:im sorry tht i broke up wit u (yesterday) me: nah its fine *normal voice* Brandon: its cuz ppl always kept making fun of me cuz of u.. they used to say ha! ur dating the fat gurl it was embaracing n so wer u! Me: oh. *starts crying* its fine but hey gtg do my hw bye... D; he duznt no i starve myself.. i weigh 113 n im 12 n im 5'0 but not to be mean

  • is waht the fucking world tell us what is perfection.

    Being honest, fat is not beautiful. But thin is?

  • This is so powerful!

  • My best friend is bulimic and I was the first person she ever told besides when her mother found out.

    When she told me, I nearly burst into tears.

    She and our good guy friend were making muffins the other day and it pained her to even take a bite.

    When she told him the next day, we thought he would be so concerned. But all he said was "REALLY? Even the muffin?" like it was a joke, and never said another word about it.

    People need to realize this is a REAL disease and a REAL cause of death.

  • @MsGracieCatherine People need to believe and get obsesed with something. That is what make us wake up every day and fight as well. For some people being thin is the goal, for other being succesful or being rich or whatever. But what is the diference? Thin people dont consume nothing, thats why they made us to believe that its wrong. Because being thin is against the system.

  • @Jauckor I'm not saying being thin is wrong, but getting thin the wrong way is wrong and harmful and deadly and I just worry about people a lot with those issues.

  • @MsGracieCatherine Exactly. Just like anything that we want to get but in the wrong way.

  • @Jauckor Mhhhm.

  • looks like Luna Lovegood from Harry Potter...

  • The girl in the mirror is so beautiful and natural, she's what I picture as my 'dream girl'.....it's a shame some people can't see how beautiful they really are

  • things like this make me want to cry

  • *Speechless*

  • Holy crap!...o:

  • The girl in the mirror is so perfect!

    That's definitly Not fat!

  • I wonder what it feels like to be anorexic. Well, it is clear that they feel very, very sad, but it's unbelievable that they see themselves fat and touch their own "fat", when in reality they're touching their bones with skin and no fat at all...

  • @tearsandblood body dismophia

  • The reflection is as beautiful on the outside as the girl suffering from anorexia is on the inside.

  • This ad makes me cry all the time, I watch it daily as a reminder to myself. I have a friend who I love dearly, She is the same, See's herself the same way as the girl in this ad, When she really isn't.. I try my best to be there for her, But I know someday she will die if she keeps going the way she is... x

  • dios mio... es escalofriante la realidad...

  • :(((((

  • isn't that young lady in the mirror gorgeous

  • I would probably think that the commercial ads in TV, magazines, etc. give the wrong impression to gals about what is beautiful. There is such such gals are perfect, all models in the these ads are full of makeup and photo shoot covers. Sad to see gals are not seeing themselves beautiful. :(

  • Anorexics don't care what guys want... they care what they want

  • The "fat" girl is really, really pretty.

  • @RebornBabyLove It's Saeglopur by Sigur Ros :)

  • I actually find the girl in the mirror very beautiful. I wish my curves were settled in like hers, just beautiful round hills, no bumps in the road (if that makes any sense lol)

  • a tear has just fell from my cheek :'(

  • @MarijuanaMichelle yeah i really need to calm down. Having a genuine angry reaction to bullshit is too high strung. I should just relax. You obviously have never had an eating disorder.

  • @MarijuanaMichelle excuse me, but fuck you. I don't see how its a compliment for a guy to tell a girl with an eating disorder that he likes a girl with meat on her bones. One: it makes her feel bad. Two: it insinuates that girls are doing it to be attractive to males which makes them feel in ferrior. So before you tell people to calm down maybe you should pull your head out of your ass and take a look at the big picture.

  • This actually body dismorphic disease, not all people with anorexia see this in the mirror.

  • i think the thin one is beautifull,

  • @johanna341000 ewwww are you retarded

  • @johanna341000 And look who can't even spell the word 'Beautiful', much less capitalize.

  • The girl in the mirror is perfectly beautiful! The stick figure...just...ugh.

  • And the girl in the mirror isn't even fat at all.

  • If the fat girl lost 10-15 lbs she'd be super hot. The stick figure is a bit much.

  • THIS ADD IS GENUIS!

    P.S...I REALLY THINK I SHOULD TAKE THE GIRL OUT OF THE MIRROR TO MACDONALDS...

    FOR A BIG BIG MAC o_o

  • @justanotherangryguy1 You strange person.

  • @DevoidOfFeelings

    It isnt about your will. This is about you are not who you can be- it is hard to live life the way you want to if you have noone supporting you... skinny high school cheerleaders huddle in a group and begin to whisper about how fat you are loud enough for youto hear it.So you begin to stare hoping that your body silete will change!

  • How dare they call the original girl fat. She's an average size.

  • @musicmonster2008 but anorexics don't want to be "average size" either. they want to be thin.

  • The Girl On The Mirror Had The Perfect Body: Nice Tits, Good Hipps, And Skinny.

  • @YeseniaLovesPonies id say! in the vid she looks lovely and curvy the way a girl should look.. everyone has a bit of fat on them and on their stomachs, if you didnt youd snap in two

  • right inbetween would be good

  • The girl in the mirror is the same weight as me..But im SO glad that i realised Yes, im kinda flabby, i guess..but im only 15!!!!!!!!! ^^

  • This should be shown in schools or something, thumps up if you agree!

  • @tjalilladu wtf? y? dude..... u fail

  • @Kewl1Dude Well "kewl1Dude" I think it would power peoples confident, especially young:P Im 16 myself and I girl and I think this commercial is awesome, period.

  • Comment removed

  • i wish i could be look like that girl in the mirror...

  • @soldierkiller29 Thats really ignorant and insualr for you to say that. The disease is called anorexia nervosa. There fore making it a MENTAL condition, rather than anything to do with the physical appearence. Unlike this advert, Anorexia is actually about control rather than Body weight, as 80% of anorexics have suffered from trauma before they became anorexic. You should really do some background research before you write such a ridiculous comment.

  • @soldierkiller29 That is not true at all. I had a terrible eating disorder, and I hated myself. It's a disease, you're just ignorant and obviously don't have any information on anorexia, bulimia, or compulsive eating.

  • @soldierkiller29 Sorry, but you're just being ignorant. Eating disorders are far more complex than that.

  • @soldierkiller29 how dare you say that...it is a mental illness and the people that have it most of the time do not reealize they have a problem and it is not THEIR fault....trust me, I KNOW

  • the girl in mirror is smoking hott

  • id rather tap her when she was overweight

  • the girl in the mirror is hot, the one thats looking into it looks like my grandmother in her grave after 10 years -.-

  • Pretty ignorant that most of the comments are from males saying how they prefer 'a girl with some weight'

    Girls with eating disorders are doing it usually for themselves and not for guys.

  • @charycharcharrr same thing with guys and how girls say the dont like big muscular guys , its exactly the same thing we do it for us not for you , but all seriousness this is a powerful ad

  • @charycharcharrr Thank you!

  • @charycharcharrr Well, they'd have to compare themselves to something, i.e. the media; it portrays beauty as super skinny and huge boobs, etc. So they're doing it because it's what they think is beautiful according to other people. You're not just born insecure, you can't be insecure unless you think something is wrong with you compared to what's accepted.

  • @charycharcharrr why do you think people want to look pretty? To attract other people to you... that's human nature.

  • @CrainerEU That's not always the case. Narcissism (people who try to look good for themselves) affects a lot of people. Maybe it's just you who try to impress others.

  • @charycharcharrr Ugh finally someone speaks the truth! I honestly do not give a single shit about what guys think of me.

  • @talyn08 hello. what does anon mean

  • Impressive ad and comments :)

  • i like the chick in the mirror shes really hot the skinny one is discustuing :(

  • omg that girl is sick!

  • what is the music called?

  • the girl in the mirrow is perfect! i wish i looked liker her.

  • I wish I looked as good as the self-image girl

  • @nikoincroatia ....she is incredibly fat.....why would you want to look like that?

  • @nilorac123321 She has a pretty face, she has c-cups and her stomach isn't saggy at all. If anyone can pull off heavy, it's her.

  • I wish annorexia was looked at by the media as the same as obeisity.

    Sometimes you might see a special on it but most of the focuse is on people who are morbidly over weight.

    Annorexia takes a long time to get over. And even once you pull yourself out it's hard to let it go. I have a really hard time not thinking I'm fat now that I have weight on. And sometimes I'll relapse.

    People didn't look at me and tell me I was too skinny and sick they said I was cute and glorified it.

    It's a big deal.

  • Comment removed

  • hum... did you look all the video ...

  • Anyone saying that she looks fat in the mirror is sooooo stupid. I would kill to look like her she is really pretty and curvy!!

  • the girl in the ad isnt fat she's beautiful

  • @edgestillrules95 Haha. You must be kidding me. xD

  • @edgestillrules95 Your comment makes me assume that you're implying that fat girls aren't beautiful. Everybody is beauty, regardless of their weight and beauty should be judged by the size of your heart, not your jeans.

  • @edgestillrules95 That's the whole point, It's sad to think that so many girls go through this, to think that if someone would have held their tongue this could be prevented.

  • @edgestillrules95 very true. everyone is beautiful, unique, themeselfs. i know i'd rather be fat than die.

  • @edgestillrules95

    eh

    she's definitely a bit pudgy

  • Not every girl with an eating disorder is mentally ill people. Some girls are completely normal. Its the little things that tip you off when they reach the danger zone. Its awful that these girls think theyre fat, most of these obviously come from wanting to look like this or 'little to no family reinforcement' that everyone is beautiful including them. Its horrible, and its serious.

  • @HarukaxMichiru

    Actually anorexia and other eating disorders are mental illnesses. Unfortunately there's a stigma associated with mental illness, and people think that being mentally ill means that you have to be crazy, weird, have an aversion to bathing or wearing normal clothing and be socially incompetent, which isn't true. Mental illnesses come in many shapes and forms and people need to realise that.

  • i want to be thin but get way to depressed when i see people at the size i want to be and go and pig out becasue i no i ill never be able to do it... :[

  • It sounds like you might need some more positive influence in your life. Next time instead of just eating, because Ive been there. Try and find something you are totally interested in. I lost 40Ibs doing DDR =O in like 3 months. Just make sure you look at a chart to find your height and proper weight range and work from that. Dont get depressed! You can do it!

  • DDR for fitness works very well. I did it for years when I moved to a city ill-suited to running.

  • @HarukaxMichiru haya thank u so much means alot:]

  • whats the song?

  • @bluerockstarbabe07 'Saeglopur' by Sigur Ros

  • I think she was perfect in the mirror, cause she has curves and a body.

  • This is a good advert. I remember seeing this and i was really shocked. I think it should be played a lot more on TV. Very sad.

  • thats very sad.. :(

  • Anorexia is a mental disorder and is not just about being 'thin'. People that want to be anorexic are stupid, why would you want to be mentally ill?

  • thats true some want to be like girls with disorders! they cant help it its a mental thing for them and people have pictures of them and aspire to be like them!! they think we're hating but really we want them to be healthy

  • I have severe anorexia and distored body image, and what I can say is that for "ME" when i was little i was ed with cuz I wasent the same size as everyone else, includeing my family, so I started to cut down on my food in take and started to excersice cuz of the fear of being "fat" now i still see my self as kinda big, but everyone in my family says im almost anorexia looking. Its something that just happens, its not cuz i want it.

  • the girl in the mirror isn't even fat! she looks the way women are supposed to look. she's got breasts, hips, thighs. her tummy is small as well! she's curvy, soft and beautiful! i wouldn't be crying if i had that body! if only more women realized just how beautiful they are :(

  • too right, beauty is in the mind, you should feel it in your skin anyway

  • do jmh731 :: .. who said shes fat...... its an anerexic commercial... enerexic people are not fat they cant help that there skinny its a eating disorder. the point is when shes looking in the mirror shes normal but when it zooms out she is really skinny. no one can help it its a disorder. mentally ill so....

  • EW EW EW EW EW

    annorexia is a horrbile thing!

    she was pretty as she is in the mirror!

    i personally love woman her size :D

  • i mean the thicker girl i like :)

  • "Don't Let the mirror judge our look, but let God judge the mirror"

  • that is so sad :'(

  • My sister wants to be anorexic. She weighs 100lbs for 5'6. She doesn't look fat at all. In fact she's skinny.

    But she loves McDonalds and my mom bribes her with it and stands near the bathroom when she's in it to make sure she isn't throwing it up.

    It's a horrible thing. I don't know why people can't just like themselves as they are.

  • hot

  • hot?! where is the hot?!?!!!

  • the girl in the mirror is gorgeous and its kinda creepy when it zooms out

    i cant stand it how some people think that looking really skinny is good, like girls that are really skinny, i dont think there attractive

  • When I watched this for the first time, I got a chill down my spin like you wouldn't believe,

  • just keep at it(da diet) til it works...

  • This ad is really scary. That girl in the mirror is so beautiful =(.

  • das scary

  • that was kinda scary omg nitemares

  • very heartbreaking! I really think the girl in the mirror is so beautiful.

  • thats sad she was a perfect weight in the mirror

  • i hate the fact that girls think like that,

    i think like that too..

    i already lost 33 Ib but i still think i'm too much.

    that girl is beautiful. that ad really scared me.

    i should be happy with myself.

  • The girl in the mirror is very beautiful :o

  • somewhere between the two is the ideal. People are supposed to be lean. That doesn't mean no muscle and no fat.

  • Very heartbreaking commercial!

  • Dude, guys don't like loving on rock hard stick figures. We rather have a girl with some weight, so atleast they look human.

    Thumbs up if you agree.

  • Comment removed

  • @jake98760 I agree with that 100 percent. I like some weight on a woman!

  • @jake98760 for some people its not about being skinny.

  • @jake98760 yeah because everyone with an eating disorder is doing it to desperately obtain the approval of guys. Yep just becuase guys don't like skinny girls eating disorders will disapear. Ugh THANK YOU for opening my eyes! I'm just...I've seen the light! It has absolutely nothing to do with psychology or control its all about vanity! Thanks again man, really insightful

  • I'd tear the mirror girls ass up.

  • the girl in the mirror is the perfect wieght! everyone has extra skin or body fat!

  • @emlyrics She's fat! Yuck.

  • Stfu. Your the kinda person that make people end up anorexic you idiotic fuck

  • che triste..

  • I'm not fat or Anorexic but if i had to choose i would totally choose fat lol

  • no manches si me sorprendió , esta super para las rucas anorexicas

  • some one dont eatill make em lol my rule is if she aint 180 she aint a lady

  • haha that's funny

  • LOL

  • hmm so you say if someones not 180 there not a lady im 100 pounds and im not anorexic and im most def a lady

  • its so sad ='(

    so many people take the piss out of people with anorexia or bulimia, saying that its for attention or what not, but its an actual mental condition, they see themselves as fat, and they can't help it. Poor girls, and guys.

    By the way, does anyone know the piece of music in the background? its perdyy (:
