I just went to an Aurora concert (she is such a talented angel btw) and one of the lines that always sticks with me is 'I never had the world, so why change for it?' (Giving into the love is the song). This year marks the 10th year I have struggled with an eating disorder/disordered eating. It has taken so much away from the person I want to be, the life I want to live, and the REAL happiness and self love I want to feel. It has caused me to hide myself away from friends and family and feel a lot of shame that has rooted itself deep into my psyche that I am still learning to let go of. I am making a lot of progress mentally, but it's something you need to actively fight back every day. In a society that sees weight loss as something that should always be aspirational regardless of actual health, when I actually need to gain weight to avoid serious long term health consequences, requires constant unruly efforts to deflect the toxic messaging thrust onto all of us, both online and offline every day. Thank you for speaking about this. I don't want to be 80 years old and regret the hours I wasted worrying about the calories in my yogurt. I want to feel content with the memories I made and how present and grateful I was living the life I chose, in a body that supported me to work, travel, dance, hug and live the best life I could. My heart goes out to all the women and men who are severely affected by the stupid standards that are pushed down our throat. I hope you all have people in your lives that remind you of your worth and the love that they have for you as a person, not the vessel it comes in. Let's fight this back together.

Anne Frankly, I did nazi that coming.

Your story is so similar to mine. I'm so glad you shared your experience. I feel less alone

Getting a weight loss ad after this vid is truly a hate crime

I weigh less than I did at 16. I assume it's because as we age we lose our baby fat and bone mass. Muscle mass too. We're literally wasting away on our slow march to death. ... ..... ........ and I'm only 30. It starts early you guys!

skinniness is an industry. it’s the easiest way to get us dissatisfied & spending our scarce money / time. oversimplification but the hope is : if ur preoccupied with thinness ur less likely to pay attention to politics/world events/climate change etc etc etc etc. OR you’re too fatigued to do anything. it’s not surprising to me that it’s coming back now. even knowing all of this, i, like you, have felt myself slipping back into unhealthy habits. it’s really hard. thank you for using ur platform for good always. u are so amazing to me!

Thank you so much for making this video🥹 I have been feeling so bad about my body after having my son! I did not weigh myself before I was pregnant, but once I was, I obviously had to at the hospital. After that I was obsessed with getting back to my pre-pregnancy weight while literally trying to figure out how to be a mom. Now that I am thinking about doing it again, I am trying to lose weight to have a healthier life. I feel like that is a way better mindset.

I love these videos. I am not chronically online but I like hearing people talk about these subjects in a passionate and funny way. It’s like hearing the drama happening at the high school of your friend who lives in another city

We have to understand that we are growing and our bodies are going to constantly change and this is not bad.

i hope you read this comment i enjoy your content i just got out of surgery and i have to take 2+ baths daily and i always put your videos on. i kind of associate your voice with taking baths i know that’s weird but its true 😭😭😭 i love your content girl keep doing what you’re doing ❤❤❤❤❤❤

To be honest I had no idea this was resurging past like the kardashians level of fame. What really helped me was to delete short form content apps like tiktok and reels and just focus on other parts of myself and life. Out of sight, out of mind!! 🫶🏻

i am literally in love with ur arms, i think i actually got distracted by ur biceps

how the vid ab twitter is called?

Can you do a "chronically online girl explains Charli XCX lore" video?

i am so glad people like you exist. im going into my twenties and its terrifying. these type of conversations help me so much.

Im confused was she an RA or not?

ive been obsessed with the way I look since fourth grade, every day. it sucks so bad

She reminds me of Lisa Frankenstein

The cyst and uterus thing is so real, been going thru the same thing since I found out I had one last November, being very obsessive with my body and weight has always been present since literal kindergarten but lately these past months it's been insane to realize that because of the cyst and other medications, my body has been fluctuating. It's hard to get your thoughts under control but I honestly have to avoid looking in the mirror too much or else I'll have intrusive thoughts and I'll have the desire to start starving again. It's unfair that your body never stays the same size no matter how hard u try but I try to give myself grace because women's bodies are different and we give birth and we change weight constantly with food intake as well, periods , bloating .. I just try to avoid looking so that I stay a bit sane

Can you explain who Tara Yummy is and what that is

I’ve been obsessing over the fact that I weigh the SAME as I did at 16!! At 21 I lost a shit ton of weight from being lonely and having nothing to do but exercise, and now I have a life! It’s active but also fun! And now I’ve gained some weight back at 24.

10/10 LOVE this

Thank you for being honest and talking about this. This is such an important conversation ❤

I thought I beat the thoughts too, but they come back some times it’s so tiring 😢.

you’re not alone with how u feel

T-THE EFFORT YOU PUT IN IS CRAAZY.

As a teen i was 37 kilos, up until i was 20. I am rather small but this was nuts, and i hated myself for it. I was miserable and i looked very very very ill. Now i'm 25, and my body looks good, my blood is good, i'm eating when i want n stuff. And im still worrying about how much calories, how much sugar, how much "bad" fats. Makes no sense. I never cared before

I recently have become disabled from long covid and am housebound and bedbound depending on my symptoms. It’s been wild noticing how often I get mad at myself for getting hungry because I’m not mobile anymore. Being on social media isn’t helping and feeds into this desire to want to workout to stay at the weight I was before I became disabled and I have to constantly tell myself it is normal to gain weight in this situation. It’s absurd how often I think about my weight now!!

I also had to come to terms myself is that the size on the label doesn’t really match more often than it does. I’ve also always been a medium, going up or down here and there, but lately it’s been all over the map for sizing. I’m assuming it’s the company’s more than myself cause how do I go from all mediums to my most recent two piece set being a small top and an XL bottom. I was so disappointed that I got sad about it

thank you for these kind words they really resonated with me. Going into my 20s my body is changing constantly and this made me feel more relieved of that overwhelming feeling that comes with growing as a women. love the videos and keep up the great work

The beautiful built in bookshelf being filled with only clothes is giving *illiterate* 😌

Plssss do a Sabrina Carpenter lore video 🧎🏻‍♀️🧎🏻‍♀️🧎🏻‍♀️

Im 22 yo and speaking with teenagers even 19 yo makes me realize how much I've matured from that age idk how grow adults can go after teenagers tbh

I HATE getting Snapchat memories of me at 19 etc so much for this reason. I've already been struggling with mental health, depression and anxiety lately and i KNOW as a 23 year old woman my body naturally looks different than I did as a teenager!!! Yet I can't seem to accept it! I see those photos and ENVY what I used to look like. There is a massive disconnect between me actually knowing that I can't look like that and me accepting it and not trying to "fix" myself.

Getting a weight loss ad on this video was diabolical wtf youtube😭

love your train of thought videos (iconic) and love parade thank you for always coming in clutch with the codes so i can afford cute bras and panties that actually fit me🩲

You rule. Thanks for your honesty and care ✨

I love fat

Is your tooth necklace stainless steel ?

this is so real. being in middle/high school during the body positivity movement I really thought I would be immune to this fucked up mindset. Maybe its because in early childhood during the 2000s we were already being so influenced by the media (I definetly was), but after years of not even thinking about my body I find myself obsessing again as I did when I was 12, I even downloaded a calorie tracker for a scary moment but thank god I deleted it again. I think it sneaked its way in through trend cycles (y2k comeback) and "fitness" and "wellness" content that claimed to be all about health but deep down we knew it was not.

girl, Russel Brand has nothing to do with this bs, read and think it through some more 🤦🏻‍♀️

Thank you for this thank u so much fr. Crazy I got an ad in the middle of this video for weight loss 'appetite suppressant" shots lmfao this is dystopian

Our purpose in life is not to be small and pretty.

honestly this made me emotional. I have a mom who worries about my own weight and currently is suffering medically with her own health bc weight surrounds the world in her head. I feel like I truly cannot be happy with my body and I am now 25 and will be 26 in September. Ive lived with this struggle since I was 16 and I really want to live a life where I dont worry about how many calories I ate or taking pictures of how my stomach looks throughout the day as well. It makes me feel a little better to see I’m not the only one. 🥺

Jesus loves you people, we sinned and are all sinners but God became a human being and died for you because He loves you, He took it all for you.. for an everlasting life you just need to accept Him in your heart ❤, When i met Him He gave me peace that nothing else could

i watched this before the movie then decided to watch the movie and thought i'd hate it because i spoiled it for myself but i loved it even more and here i am rewtching your video after the movie and omfg i love it

honestly what got me over my body insecurities was feminist theory. no joke. reading the beauty myth and beauty and misogyny made me just click out of watching myself. to all the girls in the comments who feel crappy about themselves, READ THESE BOOKS. changed my life. im not kidding. youre body is you! your body is you and you are not beautiful or pretty, you are just a person. my dog doesny watch himself all the time because hes a dog. hes alive not to be perceived but because he’s a little person with love and life. and we are too!!!

I have always struggled with my body image. Meditation has helped me coming to terms to the fact that my body is not who I am, and neither is my mind. Body neutrality is my end goal, and i recognize that I'm still not there. I want to share some of my views, in case it can inspire some girls reading it <3 I am so proud of the person I am, and my body is the mean to being that. I don't care if one day i don't look my best because I know that I am smart, funny, caring and can do amazing things regardless. I don't care how i look in pictures because that shouldn't stop me from remembering the moments captured. If my friends want to post photos in which i don't like myself, i will let them since I know that brings joy to them. I have reached a point in which I love myself so much that i would never let some of my negative thoughts disrupt my day or a period of my life. I have stopped comparing myself to other people, because we all have completely different body types. I have cut my hair real short to force myself to love those traits that I have always been trying to hide. Doing sports helps a lot in realizing the amazing things your body can do! If your goal in weightlifting is to become strong, be aware it can become quite toxic as you are constantly looking at yourself in the mirror. Measuring your progress at the gym by noticing how better you are in performing sports is the best thing to be grateful for your body! Remember there are a set number of summers in your lifetime, and by the time you are 80 you will regret having spent 1/4 of summers too conscious to wear that tank top that you like so much or that bikini at the pool with your friends around. If you respect yourself so much to not allow toxic people in your life, why would you let your own mind be the cause of your disruption? Having a strong mind means also that when negative thoughts come to mind you should go back to neutrality like in meditation that you go back to acknowledging your breath only. If you start thinking about how many calories you are eating in a day, you can make those thoughts go away and enjoy the present.

Girl, I need this costume and a makeup tutorial!

holy shit i rly needed this video
