  • this video broke my heart.

    I have an eating disorder that started around this age.

    I wish there was some way society and the "ideal beauty" image would change.

  • @PuppyLove1105 I've been in this same situation... the sooner you talk the better. Take care lovely, and know that you're beautiful and perfect just the way you are.

  • oh my god its amazing , i saw this little girl in me, and i want to hug her

  • I have a small cousin, about the age of these girls, that thinks she is fat even though she's really skinny. We've finally gotten her to eat normal portions of food, but she still worries about what people think about her. It's really really sad that little girls have to go through this instead of just being carefree and happy.

  • I want to tell my mom about my anorexia but I don't want her to think about her "little girl" thinking she's fat. Whenever I look at my boyfriend's little sisters I wonder if they will have low self esteem like me and cut themselves or starve themselves... I fear that every day of my life.

  • I remember the first time I said something to my parents about how "big" my butt was getting when I started puberty. I'll never forget what my father said.

    "Amy, women wear special underwear to get a butt that looks like yours does naturally."

    I never thought I was fat again, even at 300 pounds. I thought I was beautiful and powerful.

    If you're a dude and you're reading this, remember what you're supposed to say to your daughter when she asks, okay? :-)

    Much love xx

    OMG, poor you. Please do yourself a favour and break the new you's habits. The way to a healthy diet is to eat enough and exercise enough. Basically, once you've eaten a day's calories, go for a jog or other exercise, then you'll keep in shape AND be healthy. Just like the old you. P.S. Never be afraid to eat an oreo, just make sure you burn it off in the future. :)

  • When i was this age, I was just so happy and joyful and when i ate an oreo this one time i remember thinking "oh what is it gonna do?" and not really caring that much if it made me fat. But I never would have thought that just a few years later, I would have anorexia and sometimes bulimia. Whenever i look back on my past, and remember how carefree and happy i was, I start crying so much because i miss the old me. :'(
