  • This advert's all wrong - The girl in the mirror should have been obese, not a healthy weight, all that does is encourage the audience (us) to develop a distorted idea of body size. Think about it.

  • the worse thing is that it's happening in reality

  • @Like3moAMAZINGG You're absolutely right. When anorexic people are asked to draw themselves, they always draw obese figures. I don't know what the people who made this advert were thinking!

  • @EllenRebecca3 You hit the nail on the head. :-)

  • @EllenRebecca3 Right? I was just watching and was like.. what the hell I want to be that weight. The girl in the mirror isn't fat at all. She should have been obese and not perfectly healthy.

  • i dont think you people quite see the point to this advert, yes the girl is a healthy size but it's not trying to say that that is a bad weight. you kinda have to understand that the girl portrayed here has anorexia so she has an eating disorder that is characterized with a fear of gaining weight, so she is looking at the mirror looking picking at things she is seeing as 'fat' where in reality is unhealthily thin. it's not an attack on this size, it's to bring awareness that is much needed.

  • Not sure why the girl that is the reflection is there as a "negative". She is gorgeous & obviously healthy...this sends the totally wrong message out. The girl in the mirror is what a teenage girl SHOULD look like. Nothing about her is fat or ugly. Nothing.

  • Mirror Girl, you are stunningly beautiful! If we were married (If I could ever deserve to be with you), we'd make love together whenever you wanted, and then I would cook us breakfast the next morning. When kids come along, I'll fall in love with you all over again because I'll see your beauty in them.

    Real World Girl , You are hideously ugly and too thin! You look like a coma patient, and I'd never want to be with you. But, I love you enough to take you to Burger King and buy you two whoppers.

  • im 40kg for 1m57 and i see the same body like this girl when i look in the mirror...

  • @EmmaAwesomeSauce29 Courage :-) Keep it up ! I think we all can do it (I mean: become beautiful) :-)

  • @Saturna197 Sameee :|

  • I'm like the girl in the mirror... And I f*cking hate this. :-(
