[quote=Anonymous]Yes. I was poked in the stomach and told to switch to Diet Cokes. I modeled and was asked if I could lose 5 pounds in a week. SURE! That works. (Hair falls out). I was pushed into pageants but resisted. My rebellion was sports, because what my body could do mattered more that what size it was. Then I was thin but not girly enough. As an eating disorder recoverer (but are you ever really recovered) I think I was hard-wired for it, and comments other people say "landed" in me in a vulnerable place. I think if someone else heard the same thing, they would have reacted in a less extreme way. I avoid diets and plans that body shame. As an adult, I found finding other adults who love you and want you to be well helps more than blaming others for your psychological make up. They did/said what they did/said. Now it is time to nurture yourself. [/quote]
