  • You cannot get a bulimic to stop. No matter what. Families get the help you need.

  • this makes me want to cry....i think i have bulimia...actually im pretty sure i do....i need help but im too ashamed....i dont want to tell my parents but i believe they need to know....does anyone have any advice for me.....i dont want to die from this

  • @ForeverWakingUpDead I don't know the kind of relationship that you have with your parents, but I think it is important that you tell someone you trust who would be willing to help you. There is a lot of help out there for you, but you are the only one who can be brave enough to accept it.

  • Comment removed

  • you're all going to die. accept it now. it's going to happen.

  • My dad doesn't cry. I made him cry because he worried about me. People need to be aware.. bless your family

  • Imagine you feel overweight. You love food. Then you learn that you can eat as much as you want, and you won't get fat, as long as you throw it up afterwards. It tastes good coming up as it does going down (ask any bulimic). You feel a sense of happiness afterwards, because you got rid of those calories that will make you fat, & you still ate whatever you want. You feel rewarded. Then you repeat the cycle again. This is what I feel as a bulimic. & then I feel guilty. Why did I do this?

  • @crazymonstergirl actually only ice cream and whip cream taste good coming up. Everything else...not really.

  • @crazymonstergirl because it is a mental , psychological disorder. First you need to go in and find out what triggers you and avoid the triggers. Go in and figure it out, with a psychiarist.

  • Sarah Just rest in peace...You are not living this Hell anymore.... That everyday Battle, waking up knowing that you gotta do it, killing yourself slowly....lying to everyone, hiding...trying to keep it secret...... This is no life!!!!

  • omg .. im in tears

  • i`m 19 and i`ve also bulimia... i hate this... i feel i`m dying every day... ehm, awful

  • oh...this girl was my age :(

  • I am bulimic and i know someday this disease will kill me. scarey.

  • I've tried to purge, I just can't. I'm an excersize bulimic. I eat a lot then spend hours working it off. I really don't care if I die. As long as I can have control

  • @sophiatastic101 That's probably good. We don't need your faulty chromosome polluting the gene pool

  • @sophiatastic101 You don't care if you die as long as you have control? For one, when you have an Eating Disorder YOU are not in control, the ED is. And there are many people in this world who would do anything to live like people dying from cancer, how the hell can you not care? I've had an ED for roughly 10 years and I have never had a death wish. I've been trying to fight this for years so that me and everyone close to me can have a better life. You need help.

  • @sophiatastic101 your not going to die because u arent actually forcing throwing up. throwing up can lead to cardio arrest. I have been bulimic for 2 years know, its very hard. I actually throow upp

  • @sophiatastic101 that is very sad, very. Please get out of your bubble for a minute and look around. Do you have a family? Do you not realize how much they love you? Do you have friends?

    Get control of your life. Be strong and fight this. It is possible

  • @sophiatastic101 who the fuck liked this comment?!

  • @sophiatastic101 who on earth would like ur comment wtf

  • @sophiatastic101 Sounds more like a binge eating/over exercising form of eating disorder.

  • how did she die? Bulimia is an eating disorder but I am curious about what killed her - i.e. cardiac arrest, dehydration, etc.?

  • This is the reason I want to revover, I don't want to hurt my family because although they act like they don't love me sometimes, I know they really do. RIP Sarah xxx

  • I reconsidered throwing up watching this. What this family lost. I don't want to do that to my family.

  • I have anorexia and bulimia. It will kill me aswell if i go lower than my goalweight but i just dosen't care :/

  • @Siathinner You can't have Anorexia AND Bulimia. You can have one and tendencies of the other, it's how it's diagnosed. You have to meet certain criteria to be diagnosed on the Psychological DSM- IV, so either get a proper diagnosis or stop lying. People do deal with this every day and lying is making a mockery of them. Yes, you may have one or the other, but you can't have both.

  • @COBHCBloodJunkie666

    Im NOT lying. I dont have them at the same time, i have them in periods, like in 2-3 months i have anorexiasymptomes or what to say and then i can eat/puke for some months and go back to ana after. Why would i even lie, noone know me here anyway.

  • @Siathinner I don't know why you would lie =/ you just can't have both at the same time. You're the one who said it, NOW you mention that you don't have them at the same time. Sorry for saying you were lying but it also seems like an attention seeking comment to be honest. A HUGE percentage of those with ED's are very secretive about it, posting comments like the one you did on here seems a tad off.

  • Comment removed

  • U know that's fucking mean to thumbs up a comment about someone going to die from bulimia

  • What killed he tho? heart problems?

  • I'm so sorry for ur lose and I hope nothing bad like that ever happens again

  • ive always been ashamed to say that im bulimic. I thought that it would show that i dont have enough control. Ive had anorexia as well. But i got exhausted from starving myself. & i found that the feeling of the vomit coming up gives me more of a high than starving ever has.

  • Wow what a loving family you guys are.At least she had such a loving family she knew loved her.god bless her in heaven!

  • How can you judge someone in a situation like this? Your harsh words are the very cause of this problem. It is not something that you just sit down one day and decide to do. It is because of the harsh judging of western culture that this disorder exists. Next time you think of judging, hold your tounge.

  • I am sorry for your loss. Thanks for posting this video. Our thoughts go out to you. Your video will help others to understand how bulimia can be so life threatening x

  • This made me cry.

    I don't want to die...

  • Comment removed

  • @Mudnard I completely see where you are coming from, and I completely agree with you. I do see how it can be very...selfish I guess? But bulimia (and anorexia) is a disease and it's more common and painful than you would think.

  • @redsoxfan526. Please do not be ashamed that you are a male with this problem. We are all ashamed of eating disorders, and anyone who thinks less of you bc you're a guy who has one is not worth your time and is superficial. They're mostly in girls... But not always! So just try to stop or to get help. You are worth it, I promise. And if you need anyone to talk to my email is alnoack34@yahoo.com.

  • I have bulimia, and can't find help because I am a man, and none of the eating disorder clinics in my area accept males. One clinic receptionist thought that I was lying because most if not all other people that have bulimia are girls and women, and I am probably the only guy on the planet with it.

  • you aren't! Rogers Memorial Hospital and Mccallum Place in saint louis are 2 places that accept males

  • I am in the San Francisco Bay Area in California, which is thousands of miles away from St. Louis.

  • @redsoxfan426

    No you're not, and that's stupid, I can't believe them! Look for bulimia clinics on the internet, there should be some that accept males.

    I don't know about bulimia, but 25% of people with anorexia are males.

  • 25% of anorexics are males? That is shocking!! It feels very akward having a disease associated with girls and women. If any of my friends and family knew, they might think that something is wrong with me.

  • @redsoxfan426 Yes you family and friends will be concerned, because they will realize that you are sick, just like anyone else with this disorder. The best thing to do is to tell them, because everyone needs support and you cannot do it alone, and most people can not get over it by themselves and need either treatment or need to see a conselour. You are not alone.

  • @redsoxfan426 I probably ought read further B4 replying but 0 sleep and 5 AM. Although it may feel awkward to have a disorder most commonly associated with females, it is not a female disorder. Something IS wrong with you, very wrong, and it could kill you, but I presume you mean that your "sexual preference" might come into question. Even were you a homosexual male, this needn't mean an ED.  EDs cross all boundaries--race, gender, socioeconomic, age, etc. Rogers Memorial Hospital.

  • R.I.P

  • she was never fat, how the hell did she think shed get skinnier? noone likes the look of darfur refugees..ha, but seriously , you teen girls watch too much skinny ho tv.

  • @kernalkhaos It isn't so much the want to be thin and pretty it's more mental thoughts that teens can't work out so the only thing they can resort to is self torture by starvation. Sometimes it's not about girls that don't want to eat it's about girls that literally can't.

  • Hugs. I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved daughter and family member, Sarah. What a beautiful and lovely person. Your pain is obvious and palpable. Bless you for sharing her story and helping to show the anguish that the illness may cause while hoping to inspire others to get help. For anyone looking for resources about eating disorders: Something Fishy has a site.

  • @kuhleskind your accually wrong. i suffered from a mild case of bulimia. it's when you binge and then make yourself get sick, when you strictly put yourself on a fasting or a strict diet, and/or when you excersize almost all the time(which this video said so) her teeth went bad because she would purge(throw up anything she could)

  • how does it give a person heart disease?

  • @AntiVenomFangX Several reasons, actually:

    1) The body requires a certain amount of fat to actually protect internal organs (including the heart)

    2) As with anorexics, bulimics often suffer from anemia, which leads to poor blood circulation and weakening of internal organs.

    3) Bulimics are prone to electrolytic imbalance going to and from binging/purging, which puts a MASSIVE amount of stress of the circulatory system.

  • @MrTouchShriek

    is it the lack of nutrients or the actuall binging and purging that causes these things.

    and where can i find out about all of the health risks other than cosmetic risks like teeth and so on?

  • I'm sorry guys but please save the flames for somewhere else, that kind of stuff is NOT ok in front of the video a grieving family has put up. Grow up.

  • @Starsindarksuits THANK YOU. god, some people being are super immature, rude, and being insensitive.

  • @WoordWerks

    It's not that it's a food they 'like,' it's an obsessive-compulsive thing. Food becomes a drug and a method of self-injury... physically, but also mentally, because every time a bulimic binges, that whole period of time is spent in a mess of shame and self-flagellation. If you're fucked up enough to get to that point, it almost feels cathartic to inflict those emotions on yourself.

  • @WoordWerks U dont fucking know the feeling of a fuckin eating dissorder u unknowing norm ... If it was that easy we wouldnt be ana or mia.

  • @NeVeR2BeBLeSSd

    That was kind of uncalled for. Reign in those talons.

  • @Greenling kay.

  • I am truthfully so sorry for your loss.

  • I can say i hate being bulimic it sucks i am constantly obsessing over weight and laxatives and now recently Ipecac syrup it sucks its like a sickly drug that i am now addicted to i just wish i never started my bulimia over some guy :( :( it SUCKS!!!

  • @markedbytek

    hmm, i have the same prob, only that

    i started it over a girl :( no im not a guy...

    nvm, the thing is, i also HATE it, i have to stop

    i dont want to die, HELL NO.

    it just isnt worth all of this, and i know we all know that,

    its just so hard to beat it... :(

  • @taniuta1995 - I hope you will soon realize that you ARE worth more than this. I struggled for 20 years with Anorexia, I am now in recovery & its the hardest thing I've ever done. But it IS possible. Anything is possible. If you ever want or need to talk, feel free to message me or find me on facebook (facebook dot com/karen.seith)

  • @markedbytek Stop doing it! I did it to myself for years and my body is all messed up now! He's not worth it, no guy is! The laxatives don't work and will only make you gain weight. Start working out, try a healthy diet, maybe even vegan, I lost weight and felt amazing when I was vegan and this was after I quit the binge/purge cycle. When I quit purging I even gained a few pounds, it was worth it but I still have problems everyday, I'm glad I quit when I did.

  • I could never tell my parents. They would be so ashamed of me, and my mom already thinks that bulimics are disgusting and should be punished, so I could never tell them. Although they aren't understanding, they're my world, so to have them see me in another light would just kill me. I'd rather put up with bulimia than have them look down on me like that.

  • @SpringtimeRosePetals Hey...If your mother thinks of bulimics that way than she is tho one who is disgusting! Bulimia is a mental illness and kills people slowly...your mother should help you..if you don't want to talk to your parents go and see a doctor, because you need help! Belive me I'm suffering from bulimia long enought to tell!

  • @SpringtimeRosePetals , hey.. i need to talk to you about telling your parents. for three years i hid this secret and i let it control my life. this summer, i finally told my mom. i thought she would react just like you think your mom is gonna react, but i know now that all she wants to do is help. so do your family a favor and tell someone. you need to be free of this horrible condition. if you need help knowing how to bring it up to your mom, i am here for you!! i just went through it.

  • God bless you. I am so sorry for your loss and for your daughter's suffering with a horrible disease. You are in my family's prayers.

  • i have bulimia and it will kill me some day

  • @ClythiaMystica Don't let it. Pray and make yourself better. You don't have to settle on letting something kill you. Get help and beat it. It can happen. Trust me, one of my friends beat it. You can too. You are in my prayers.

  • @ClythiaMystica If you let it, yes it will but you can fight and take back your life, please please go into recovery before it is too late. Please get help, you can do it I know it can

  • @ClythiaMystica dont lie down and accept this!!!!!!!!!!! if anything else, you have a strong support system in the people on here. please, dont do this to yourself anymore.

  • @ClythiaMystica me too :(

  • @ClythiaMystica Bulimics DO NOT confess that there's something wrong with them. It's done IN A SECRET MANNER. Just like anorexics don't go prancing around CLAIMING to EVERYONE that they have anorexia.

  • @Rocker0For0Life You know nothing.

  • @newexperiment That's your excuse? I know well enough that no one confesses their illnesses.

  • @Rocker0For0Life some do

  • @Rocker0For0Life Like I said.. you KNOW nothing.. and you are mistaken...

  • @Rocker0For0Life Admitting the disease is a HUGE step in healing:)

    youtube.com/watch?v=bdeNrb-h-t­I&feature=bulletin

  • @ClythiaMystica yes it will, so dont accept that fact do something about it.

  • @elibeth121 mia will only tighten her grip on me. she wont let go.

  • @ClythiaMystica - Reading this breaks my heart. It doesnt have to. My now ex-girlfriend suffers from bulimia. I have read many books and I try to understand as much as I can. Everyone has choices and you don't have to be enslaved by this disease. Please seek help. Don't let this disease win. I know it is hard to start and continue the process of recovery but you can be free.

  • @ClythiaMystica Oh please dont say that:(..I had it for 14yrs,Its a struggle I know that,but you can beat it!I did :)..Its a self esteem prob,us Woman are supose to be perfect(thanx hollywood)..Please PM me I can mabee help you?

  • @ClythiaMystica it wont, i had bulimia for 9 years and now I am recovered and healthy, couldnt let Mia win! If i could do it, you can do it too:)

  • @kispiturka really? theres still hope? i thought mia would be bound to my soul for all of eternity, how can i escape her dark grip?

  • @ClythiaMystica of course it is,dont be affraid of asking help.it is a sickness,u r not able to control at the moment,counselling really helps n positive thinking n also avoiding that food what triggers your binging.I wanted to live a normal life with healthy weight n without ED so started exercising regularly,not excessively,learnt to enjoy eating n life again.since i am healthy I even lost weight in a healthy way.so there is no such thing as hopeless, u can do it too u can b happy too!

  • @ClythiaMystica

    No you don't.

    Stop screaming for attention.

  • @Ln192 yes i do how can u prove i dont? wanna know whats its like cunt?

  • @ClythiaMystica I'm too ,... and know , it i won't be recovered soon, I'll lay down.... forever.

  • @MrThereper. Is it nice in your little uninformed, closed minded world? Do u really think people with eating disorders crave attention so much that they are prepared to die for it? Don't bother answering. I actually don't care what you think.

  • @redsoxfan426 Bulimia is not a "girl" disease.

    it has no sexual orientation. Do not be ashamed for what you have, it is a mental disorder which needs outside help to be controlled. I have had it for almost a year now and it has ruined my life.

    I know even after seeing this video, fear of dying does not scare me. I know i can die it just isn't enough to make me stop.

  • I am a guy who has bulimia. I feel so ashamed because I am a guy with a girl's disease!! I am probably the only guy in the world with it. Nobody knows that I have it.

  • @redsoxfan426 Bulimia is not a "girl" disease.

    it has no sexual orientation. Do not be ashamed for what you have, it is a mental disorder which needs outside help to be controlled. I have had it for almost a year now and it has ruined my life.

    I know even after seeing this video, fear of dying does not scare me. I know i can die it just isn't enough to make me stop.

    all you can do is at least seek help

    and take your life back into your own hands

    i know its hard

  • @redsoxfan426 Actually a famous Canadian musician named Josh Ramsay had it. You're not the only guy who's ever had it.

  • @redsoxfan426 actually quite a few guys have it, there are five in my clinic right now. There age ranges are from 25 to 30. I have had some that are 12-18 year old. I wish you could tell someone that you trust about your disease so you can reverse some of the damage that it has done on your body, before it is too late. Please please get help and take your life back

  • Really?! That's shocking!! How could I get help? What should I do?! I feel so ashamed because I fear that people will feel that I have something wrong with me since it is known as a girl's problem, and I am not a girl!! Also, what kind of damage do you think this has done to my body?

  • I thought she an hero'd

  • 0:19 is the most heartbreaking thing I've seen. It's absolutely tragic that this illness would rob people of all the potential they were born with. Rest in peace Sarah xx

  • i hate this!i need anybody to talk to. if anybody wants to talk,message me.

  • how tragic, God Bless her sould && God Bless her parents

  • @SMOKEWEEDNlGGA er, what planet are you on!!

  • @charlottecraddock probably Jupiter!

  • may i ask, if you don't mind, how exactly did she die. your video is a little vague on that. i pray for you and your family, and i am so, so very sorry for your loss. may god bless you xxx

  • i need help. i can't look at myself im so ugly. and fat

  • I dont know how I managed to resist driving to McDonald's tonight and binging. Well, it's most likely because I've come to a point where it has become evident that I can't continue on with my ED AND succeed at school, or anything else for that matter. I dont even know why I want to do it so bad. I will either fall asleep, or get lazy and not throw it all up. Then I will feel like I've ruined everything, and drink nasty senna tea that will make me sick. Why the hell would I CRAVE this

  • @princesskittymeowful Please go into recovery so you can reverse some of the damage that is doing to your body before it is to late. Please tell someone, I will always be here to listen if you need support.

  • I also am a bulimic, but luckily I have now sought help after the disease struck me again. I am glad bulimia hasn't affected me before my twenties, this way I will be able to cope. Still haven't told my parents though because I don't want them to go through this. I can't imagine how it must feel to be in loss of control and fear for your kid's life. I wish everyone who suffers from an ED strength in regaining control of their life.

  • I feel deeply sorry for u tht ur afflicted with such a small-mindedness, lack of intelligence & emotional immaturety. Heaven forbid u ever go thru the pain tht people who r affected by eating disorders go thru because with an attitude like tht there's no way on earth that u wld have any1 left around u 4 support. I never thought I'd say this but I'd honestly rather be me & have an eating disorder than have the great misfortune of being as unlovable as u. Gd luck in life...fools like u need it. x

  • im struggling with recovery at the moment and have been ill almost 10 years. i hope to god i never leave my family in this way, i refuse to let it beat me.

    thank you for sharing this x

  • @shmeepfairy im a guy with bulimia and guys getting help for this is not extally heard of i think, but how would a guy get help for this?

  • @shutupkevin316 i guess the same way us girls would:)

  • @shmeepfairy Good for you, fight and take back your life

  • *ten year veteran, pardon.

  • I too am a year veteran of anorexia and bulimia... praying to not become a fatality. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Thanks for sharing your daughters story.

  • once you become entangled in this bulimic addiction, it is so hard to break free, you constantly look in the mirror and never see what you want..and as time goes by..it all catches up with you...and you do not realize until it is too late. for this family, I am sorry for your loss, and I hope to one day break free from this addiction....I do not want to put my family through this.

  • @Pinkus4PS3 You can do recover it is possible but you need to go into recovery so you can get well. Fight and take your life back. Do it now, because the longer you wait the harder is becomes to get back your health and reverse the damage it is doing on your body. You can do it!!!

  • I came apon this... I am and have been fighting this for 10 years now. ... thank you for helping see things in a new light. God bless :)

  • Oh my goodness at the beginning of her as a baby! So adorable! I feel so ba for her and for everyone with eating disorders.

  • I had this disorder in the past. I am not bulimic now at all. I really want other people who are struggling with it right now, or struggling with recovery to know that it is very possible to overcome it. Maybe, it wont be easy, but I did it, and so can you. It helps when you have something good to look forward to like .. school, a job, a relationship..other.. etc. Don't think you can't do this, I even did it on my own and have no desire to bing/purge again. Have hope.

  • i'm bulimic and one time i was using a toothbrush and actually swallowed it, whole.

    i was taken to the ER and got it removed from deep in my stomach a day later (they couldn't do it the night i went) from endoscopy.

    it was the most embarrassing thing ever, and i could have easily died

    but

    i'm still doing it...

  • this made me tear up. ive been struggling with bulimia for over 3 years.i wish i could stop

  • @teenagedethgurl YOu can stop it is possible, fight and take your body back

  • I have been struggling with bulimia as well, tonite was one of the first times i didnt want to get sick and it happened with out even forcing it...that really scared me.

  • @BurningSaphire21 I bet it did, your body is so used to throwing up that it is an uncontrollable force please go into recovery before it gets to late.

  • im bulimic to

  • im bulimic

  • i am a bulimic. i am scared after i started bleeding from my nose.

  • @niamtxiv please get help, please go into recovery and fight to get your life back

  • I am so sorry about your little girl. your baby was everything to you and i understand that. i too have lost someone to an eating disorder. I am so sorry.

  • Very sad. true. it eventually takes a toll on you to where u cant control it anymore. i know from experience. it was horrible. it got to the point where i wouldnt allow anythng to digest. not even water. i can remember wanting to stop so badly but couldnt.

  • It's so sad:(

  • you lose weight but have tremendous health consequences...i don't really see how that works...if losing weight at all costs is the goal, without relation to health and without retaining free will or much hope for the future...then congrats.

  • I think your kind of missing the point. Eating Disorders have very little to do with weight, though it might seem that way. It's basically just a way of covering up and ignoring other issues, this then becomes addictive and any thoughts about what you are doing to your health get pushed aside. It's not a case of sacrificing your health for losing weight, it's more complicated than that.

  • that is NOT what bulimia is about. in fact bulimics are often loners, do not date and sex is not why they want to be thin. and bulimics are also most often over achievers, and very driven and succesful at all they do...unlike typical girls today who just want to look cute and have nothing to offer but to lay on their backs for some piece of shit guy.

  • @kuhleskind my sister dated and she was bulimic

  • @kuhleskind That is bullshit. Not all bulimic girls are like that.

  • @wtfitstaryn that would be y i used the term "often" not "all" bulimic girls...learn to read Ass. n i think I know more about this topic than you or many ppl would.

  • @kuhleskind LOL LEARN TO SPELL. Don't you dare call me an ass or say that you know more about this than me. I've been struggling with bulimia for almost 5 years now.

  • @wtfitstaryn first of all you twit...I can spell, its called internet jargon! I'm 25 and I have had this disorder for over a DECADE! not to mention I am a fucking NURSE with a college education! so yeah I know and understand it much more...think before u speak...fucking teenager. grow the hell up.

  • @kuhleskind Well jesus fucking christ chill the fuck out. I don't give a shit how old you are. Your previous comment made me angry because it seemed like you were just describing a stereotypical bulimic girl, when you and I both know that it's a bunch of bullshit. Just because I'm a teenager doesn't mean I'm a "twit" and that I have to "grow up". I'm very mature for my age and I've been through more than you've probably been through in your entire life. You were a teenager too, so get over it.

  • @wtfitstaryn you are acting like a typical teen! thinking u've been there n seen it all n experienced it all..you have NOT. you haven't been in the world and one day you will really mature and get off ur high horse and realize you don't know it all! and i did not stereotype builimic girls: i said often they are as I described. and that is true. statistically speaking builimic females are the over achievers and perfectionists and pushing themselves to always want to be "better".

  • @wtfitstaryn and another thing: I seriously doubt you have been thru even half of what I have experienced in my life. I do not know you or ur personal situations and vice versa. yes i was a teen and i grew up, truly matured and experienced life and realized that i wasn't as much of a badass know it all as I was convinced I was as a teen. One day you'll see it. So look, I'm not gonna get into bitch fit here. Sorry for watever. We both are fighting the same battle here so lets focus on that.

  • @kuhleskin No, all typical girls have to offer is not laying on their backs.

    and even if it were, at least you're not harming themselves.

    You can be successful without being bulimic, its is nothing to be proud of, and it doesn't matter how 'successful' or how much of an 'over-achiever' you are, if throwing up is something you feel the need to do to make yourself feel better, then there is obviously something WRONG.

    No amount of 'success' can change that,

  • @OSuperGirlO,Obviously your a naive teenager and you haven't been out in the adult world to see what it is like and how females behave (and males for that matter). Secondly it is not the bulimia that makes one successful,the norm is that bulimic individuals are perfectionists and push themselves to be such, the purging is part of the striving for a sense of physical perfection,only one of many ways they push themselves.Your comment was stupid. Just a few crayons short of a full box aren't ya?

  • @kuhleskind

    only an idiot and an ignorant person like yourself, would think of comming up with that comment.

    damn bitch.

  • God rest her soul.  I know she is proud of you for continuing this video in her memory. I am sure she would want people to know what can and ultimately does happen when continued.

  • rip sarah......so sad.....

  • i dont know the story of the girl who died of bulimia but i think today there is so much pressure put on young children to look like their popstars/models to look thin. the reality is a lot of the magazines airbrush the image. i really dont like parents who put their toddlers/ young kids like 5yrs old into beauty pagents. kids should be eating ice cream and playing in the mud, grazing their knees etc

  • I sense the love she received from her family. Existed love makes her destiny ever more painfully sad. If even love and deeds of love can't help us what is left? Memories, pain, weakness, sorrow. It's so obvious Sarah had joy of life inside her. But what is the thing that too often defeats that joy?

    I can't imagine the amount of tears and rage her family must have gone thru. Just one undefined huge pain.

  • im so sorry for ur loss. bless her

  • I am bulimic I dont really know why. I am trying to overcome it but I am 36 and it's a daily struggle. I weigh 100 pounds more now than I did 10 years ago and I don't deal with it very well but I have times of weight losses and gains. One of these days I hope to overcome. My heart goes out to you.

  • mmm im 19 years old and i weigh 15 more pounds than i did 3 years ago i guess after reading yours i feel a bit silly... I've been into this for about a year... I weighed less b4 i started bulimia won't help you lose weight.. you'll only lose your happiness you've only gained 10 pounds a year. you can lose it all by diet and working out.. nothing comes easy and cheaters never prosper... controlling eating is just as much of a discipline as working out but i understand why its hard
