So nice to see some one being so open and honest, hopefully more people will feel brave enough to open up about it if there struggling the more people talk about it. Weight is something I used to really struggle with, everyone new there was something wrong what with me being so thin but it wasn't until I admitted it to myself which was when I realized how ill I was but it took me three years to admit it... It then took me another three years to recover!

I just feel like I don’t wanna know because the numbers don’t mean anything to me if I feel good in myself! I genuinely needed this because now I don’t feel alone on this!

Thank you hun, this video spoke to me big time as I feel I have definitely struggled with weight and my body image for many years and everyday is a constant reminder of how I feel about my body image and I'm working on how I feel mentally about myself. I think it's such a big topic that we all need to be more aware positive and never critical as none of us know what someone is going through behind closed doors or the effects of our words or intentions. We must empower, support and remind each other how amazing we are as people. We are more than just our weight and it's such a personal thing. Everyone is beautiful inside and out. :)

Oh my god! Sat listening to this story time and it’s bizarre how much what you went through/going through is so similar to my experiences in life! It’s comforting to hear but sad at the same time, I wish I knew someone/ had a friend who had experienced similar to us in life and understands. That’s what it feels like listening to you stories , it’s like listening to a friend only I can’t share back. Even down from early life, my mum was a chef and I never had unhealthy relationships with food, I went to uni (always been like a size 10) worked nights at uni and weekends, got into the same bad habits when working nights, then in second year got so ill at in and out of hospital, lost 20kg (smaller than size 6) went back to uni for third year (because I’m not a quitter) and had to cram all my modules in (didn’t help) ballooned in weight from steroids, lost many “friends” because they didn’t understand or thought I was faking the illness. I used to get comments “oh it must be so nice to eat whatever you want and not gain weight” I couldn’t help it, my body wasn’t absorbing anything. Finally after graduating uni I was diagnosed with Crohns and I seem to experience very similar symptoms to you. Everyday is a battle but we are made of strong stuff 💪 thank you for sharing 🥰 xxx

I’m a size 6 and I’ve always had people tell me I’m too skinny, you’re so skinny, you need a meal, eat that you need to put on weight, you should go to the doctors you might have an over active thyroid…I’ve also had a manager at work have a go at me when I asked to go home when I had a kidney infection and he said it’s because I don’t have a healthy diet I’m too skinny. I actually love food and eat a lot of food but people just assume. It’s also not just strangers it’s people at work family friends and even family. People think just because I’m a small size that commenting on my weight isn’t offensive but it’s just the same as commenting on someone who’s a bigger size than me. Very happy you’ve done this video, people are very ignorant and need to stop commenting on peoples weight x

I remember I lost a lot of weight and went to a party when nobody had seen me for a while. Since the moment I arrived every Tom, Dick and Harry commented on how much weight I'd lost and how good they thought I looked. I remember being so confused how they thought it was ok to publicly speak about my weight and it felt like all they saw when they looked at me was my weight. For all they know I could have been starving myself to lose that weight and congratulating me on it. People do need to draw lines and respect boundaries!!

Thank you so much for this video, I stopped auditioning for years because the comments I got from panels were 'your too fat', 'The girl who did the part before you was much thinner', 'if you lost weight you would be more talented.' It honestly shattered my entire world and led to obsessive weighing and laxative abuse. I was essentially just abusing my body because i was told i was not good enough continuously. It's taken me years, but I have come to love myself in my own body. I no longer abuse my body based on someone else's opinion. And people in the industry need to stop using their 'power' in thinking they are entitled to comment on peopled bodies! Thank you for speaking out. I found so much comfort in this

This is SUCH an important topic .. every single person has their own journey and relationship with weight! I’ve always been curvy and loved my body but my gastroparesis totally battered me a few years ago. I was throwing up everything I ate for over 6 months and ended up around 6 stone and being tube fed. My body changed SO much I couldn’t look in the mirror. I hated how I looked, I was in children’s clothes and was in a really bad way. I just about got my head around my new size and accepting myself when I started putting on the weight (which is amazing because it meant I was getting healthier) but that was so triggering for me! Not being able to get into my clothes any more made me really down (even though they were children’s clothes) I just couldn’t get my head around it. I get / got so triggered when people comment that I’ve gained weight .. even though I know it’s amazingly positive for my body and for my health! I still look in the mirror and don’t like what I see … the drastic changes in my weight have been so traumatic and triggering for me. Everyone has their own journey and their own struggles regardless of their age, size, gender etc. I think it’s important to recognise this and show understanding and empathy to each other. Sending love to you 💖💖

ugh. im currently sitting here, video is paused and idk what to do. i recently realized i have had an eating disorder for probably around 6 years, but because they're so under discussed i had no idea. abt a year and a half ago my anorexia really took off, i lost almost 20% of my body weight and everything in my life went to ruins. i have since gained back 10-15lbs and my family thinks im cured (feeding into the naive conception that eating disorders are only valid when you're thin). but in reality im still struggling so bad, and i know that it's bad for me, and that i should eat and this and that etc etc. but i just want to be where i was last year and im just stuck in this in between. i have no reason to recover, which is why i have hesitated to choose recovery. i dont have a good family, not many friends, no significant other. i feel like if i watch this video either ill hear the discussion about weight loss and be encouraged, or ill hear about recovery and will feel inclined to choose it (and this fact scares me more). idk im sorry i rambled and i know no one will read this..ig i jsut feel like this is a safe space

When actually I’m having to go for growth scans every week because my baby is measuring small… !? it’s so triggering everyone commenting on the size of you etc when you’ve suffered in the past!

As the only girl born out of all my cousins and siblings, my weight was the hot topic at family gatherings. As a literal 6 year old, that’s obviously heartbreaking. They created deep routed insecurities with my weight, so when I got to 18 I dropped 10kg+ in the space of 3/4 months. I luckily found my road to inner peace which I’m on now, the healthiest but heaviest weight I’ve been at 20. And when the topic comes up now I tell them all to F off and I can lose/gain weight as I please 😌

People need to realise that every body is so different, nutrition and fitness is not a one size fits all thing. if someone is too underweight or overweight they’d feel like crap, and they’ll ultimately get sick or make the changes they need to … otherwise what looks too thin or too big to you might actually be that persons individual happy/ healthy point. I feel my best between 63 and 78kg. Someone could see me at 65kg and say I’m too skinny… and the same person could see me at 75kg and say I’m overweight. But that’s the range that works for me. You don’t know the health status and complete lifestyle or factors that affect someone, so how they look to you isn’t an indication of their health at all. (If that’s actually your real concern 🙄… Most comments showing “concern” over someone’s weight is just based on insecurities 😬)

It's a strange thing in society that people feel they can comment on peoples weight...people have always told me I'm skinny, slim, small etc like why tf do they feel the need to say it? Also annoys me when people try to categorise your bodyshape..i don't even really know my point with this comment other than people really need to wind their necks in and keep their comments to themselves when it comes to others appearance.
