A while ago i fell into a sorta ED, Like i was barely eating anything at all, definitely less than 1000 cals a day, and working out a bunch. Its so scary how only a few posts on socal media and a couple rude comments completely ruined my relationship with food and took me months to repair. As i younger teenager i think these videos are really important because it shows how literally everything fed toward young girls about weight and diet is absolute bullshit. It really fuckingg affected my mental health and its so horrible this shit still goes on.
ED thoughts never really go away. i’ve been able to learn to tell myself that those thoughts and feelings aren’t good for me and cause me harm, of course there are times where they are too strong and this content adds to that not only for myself but other people. stay safe, stay hydrated and take care of yourself they best you can
Tumblr ED culture messed me up for a long time. I'm 26 now and still struggle to get away from restricting and feeling like I have any worth when I gain weight. It makes me terrified to have a child who could access that same cycle.
My friend when I was 14 asked a guy out and he denied her laughed and called her fat... the shit I watched her go through after that was heartbreaking. I was living with her family and the bulimia is where it started.. few month later I came home one night and found her with her wrist slit in the tub.. absolutely horrible and she had a lot of support and a lot of people who loved her and wanted to help. Sometimes you can't 😢
This earned a sub for sure. These kinds of things are prevalent in the young male population as well but looking back at the era I grew up in the early 2000s it seems insane how normalized this stuff was for young women. A literal reality show where the prize was a full body plastic surgery transformation seems like a fever dream now but was hardly questioned at the time. Also another where women would walk on stage in front of a panel of judges that essentially bullied the contestants to their face about everything wrong with their body.
I’m 30 and lived through this phase on Tumblr and holy shit it’s taken over 15 years to work through my disordered eating habits due to content like this. It’s vile and I’m so sad to see this happening again
Thank you so much for talking about this! I've found myself comparing my body to others on tiktok and it fecking sucks. I really needed to hear this and I'm sure many others did too ❤
I do not believe people should be unhealthy and accept it and not grow from it . I do believe in accepting where you are at the presets and learning/growing from it and enjoy the journey. Skinny or fat, People should not be bullying others for where they are.
I used to be a part of this mommy group on facebook....i had two c sections 11 months apart from each other without giving myself the proper time to heal so when i lost the weight i ended up with a lot of loose skin that just sits there and does nothing no matter how much i workout, eat right, its there. While i was in the mommy group it was so grotesque how the moms treated each other from making fun of their bodies, stretch marks, scars, issues after delivery or if they didnt dress a certain way, they would also post pictures of their "bounce back" after having kids saying they're a "skinny legend" its fine if you're posting update pictures like before pregnancy/after pregnancy but my god they took it and stretched it too far with hate and wanderlust for being thin...
I’m in ED recovery, I would never wish anyone especially children to feel like this way about themselves; ED self harm just bad as substance/alcohol abuse that can kill you!
I struggled with an ED from around 12 to when I got pregnant with my daughter at 22. I’ve only relapsed a couple times and she’s five now. I’m very proud of it. But when I was deep into it I was SUPER active on pro ana forums. I struggled with bulimia and I still have a hard time, I will always have to fight it off once in a while. It’s such a monster. It’s 2023 now and this type of content should be moderated.
i just decided to delete TikTok and try and avoid these videos at all cost. It deffo isn’t good for any young child to be seeing the stuff in this video and being a child who saw videos like this when she was younger, it is so damaging and makes me so sad
As a black skinny/average sized girl in black culture usually having curves in the right places like big breats, hips,butt,thighs with a small waist is desirable as you can see in media like Hip hop and due to being called “not a real black girl” I later got body dysmorphia and started stuffing my breasts at 13 yrs old and eating more than I could handle it’s very different seeing the other side in white/asian media where you just have to be skinny with a figure Btw I’m now in like my senior year and have learned that it’s all just temporary even our body’s so who cares what people think we’re not gonna be looking this way forever and the people who actually love you could care less about your body as long as you’re healthy💞💓
So much respect for you covering this despite your personal ties around the subject. TikTok is poisonous and too many people are overlooking the severity of over half the stuff that’s posted on there. I’m pregnant currently with my baby girl and I prey that she doesn’t ever have to go through anything that bring her body and soul harm. Keep addressing the elephants in the room that people don’t want to talk about… it makes such a difference ❤️
What I’ve really tried to come to terms with is the “why” I’m trying to lose weight. I’m actually completely fine with the weight I’m at right now, but I went on a very easy hike with a friend the other day and was completely winded. So now I’m working on endurance. I also do yoga and other core exercises because I have back problems and working on my core will help in between chiropractor visits I’m doing my best on what my body can “do” and not what it looks like. That’s not to say that people shouldn’t be proud of their bodies! It’s just how I personally have come to feel about my own, so there’s no unattainable goal that I keep trying to achieve
Just wanna say thank you for this, honestly this is such an import topic to cover and to rase awareness to. Hearing the words 'personal choice' for loosing weight had in me in tears bc you're so correct and I needed that. I could go on for ages about this topic but I just wanted to thank you
Katie is one of the realest creators on this platform and is using her platform for the right causes. This is an incredibly serious situation and it’s not spoken about enough and someone like Katie deserves a bigger platform so more people see it. Because too many creators don’t address things like this where situations like this will affect some of their audience.
TikTok influenced my brain through those videos which led me to the situation I’m in now. Yes, I was always not pleased with my body since a young age but I managed to live through it until my summer break started. I wanted to change for the good because I saw so many videos and I thought that if I follow them, I’ll look exactly like them. Once summer break started, I couldn’t stop counting my calories, weighing myself every single time after I used the toilet, always labelling food as “bad” or “not good for me” etc. Thats went on for a while till now. It only gets worse. It only leads you to an ED which nobody should go through. I’m just a young 15 year old teenage girl. I never wanted to go through something so hard! You have to think about it, some even might lose their friends through all this shit that your going through. I almost came to that stage that I never had time for my friends and family because I was too obsessed with looking prettier then everyone until I realised that I’m just not on the right path this moment. I’m begging for whoever is reading this, don’t let them take over you and control you. Everyone is beautiful in their own kinda way- sure, it’s maybe hard to understand because we don’t look like them, but that’s not the point. The biggest part is that we should all be beautiful from the inside! That’s the important part❤️ And I’m sorry for the ones that are going through something like this. Please, talk to someone you trust about this- if not a therapist. You should not let TikTok brainwash you at all into thinking Ed’s are good. Never.
I tried the apple cider thing for different reasons. So I can say it 100% did not make me lose weight, I had no changed to my appetite, and it didn’t work for the reason I tried it lol. Put it on your chips and call it a day lol
Massive respect to you Katie for putting out this content. As much as I enjoy your deep dives into the ludicrousness of Elphaba and the arch no*ce Paul Breach etc this one is such an important topic to cover. My daughter, when she was in her teens suffered from an ED that very nearly hospitalised her as she bought into so many fads and quick fixes pushed by absolute charlatans. Thankfully she is so much better now and she has a healthier relationship with food and is more accepting of herself. It was a horrible time and if you can reach anyone with your truths about these total shitbags who prey on the insecurities of susceptible individuals then more power to you. Keep up the good work girl, your words of wisdom are needed and much appreciated.
The community on twitter is even worse. Unlike tiktok they believe that it isn't a bad or serious community and it's roped me into rock bottom. I wouldn't recommend covering because they find people covering it hilarious it's so disgusting
as someone who has an ED and has been suffering with one for more than half my life, videos like those on tiktok have send me into a relapse on multiple occasions. Im only just recovering from the last one. I report it and they say it doesn't violate their terms of service. I block/dont recomment this content and its back within a week. Tiktok really need to either restrict it or get rid of it all together.
Nice video to be recommended on one of my fast days. I appreciate you saying that wanting to lose weight is fine because it is, I'm slightly overweight/chubby so I'm on a diet where I fast two times a week (it's 0-500 calories on a fast day but I can't be bothered to count so I just don't eat) and when I had access to scales I was losing weight at a healthy rate. So there are healthy diets.
I appreciate you making a video on this topic. I'm currently struggling with my weight and there is so much bullshit out there that it's maddening. Thank you so much for addressing this subject. Love the channel by the way ❤️
Thank you so much for talking about this! The ED community is honestly mental at the moment, esspecially when it comes to supplements and workout routines. I struggled for years with an ED and it was down to social media and the competitiveness of it. A while i saw two women who were using NG tubes, medical devices in order to lose weight and it honestly made me so sad. Its also so sad seeing some PTs harbour such a bad relationship with scales and making it a way of dealing with weight and if you see the number go uo it means to restrict more and more
The thing is though is that ED culture is deeply ingrained into the medical field. I was genuinely told by a nurse that I need to start taking ozempic in the hopes that it will make me throw up so I can loose weight even faster on a 500 calorie a day diet.
Friendly reminder that Nutritionists don't have any lind of certification or regulatory board. If someone is calling themselves a nutritionist, it means they failed to become a Registered Dietician. RDs are the legitimate medical professionals.
If it sounds too good to be true, it almost certainly is. Thank you for making this video and sharing your experiences. Speaking up and calling out these charlatans is so crucial and not enough people are doing it
As usual good to see you upload and your close to 19k now !! , I'm glad you talked about this and brought some light to the subject , it's sick and people know there are children on tik tok(and every other social media platform basically) and yet they still talk about it basically telling them theres something wrong with you if you don't look like this or weigh this and as some one that has personally suffered as well as both my sisters its hard and it dosen't help when you have people like this posting because all it takes is one post for you to see an you go on a spiral , there needs to be more regulations on social media.
It’s super reassuring to me to know that I’m not the only one that still thinks ED thoughts, I’ve struggled with it alone and I forced myself through recovery alone and knowing that I’m not alone is very nice, thank you
I started having ED issues at 14 because of my really shitty ex boyfriend. I was SKINNY!!! I was UNDERWEIGHT!!! And I STILL thought I needed to lose weight. I was obsessed with certain “look” I wanted to achieve. I have permanent damage to my body because of the things I did to “lose weight”. I hid it from everyone, for years. I wish that I had opened up and I wish I hadn’t fallen into this bullshit. Honestly, mine wasn’t even to the point that other peoples gets too. But I still have permanent issues that are worsened because of that history. Like stomach and intestinal problems, joint problems, etc. which all can be caused/worsened by malnutrition. I wish I had someone like you who had said these things to me. Thank you. Nobody deserves to hate themselves so much that they slowly kill themselves to be what they think will make them “better”.
im so sorry to hear you went through that! it truly is an awful problem that needs to be spoke about more to protect young people from falling for such an easy trap :(
it's honestly pathetic that people will still have the cheek to question why young people are effectively harming themselves in regards to their diets - society is FUBAR
Such a sound voice you gave to this topic thank you. I listened to the video so I didn’t get as triggered watching the TikToks but your way of shutting down and calling out these people healed something inside me (I’ve been recovering for years now but this was really nice)
Bravo..and very well said, Tik tok is a disease I don't have thankfully I vote for a weekly katie rant about the crap thats being promoted to vulnerable people
First, I'm so glad you are covering this. For me, regrettably, I still struggle at times with my ED and seeing young girls following a dangerous miserable path I walked already is just heartbreaking. So glad you cover this. Also though? Small twitch. CHEMICAL FREE? So... the bottle is empty? Well, no. Even oxygen is a chemical. Nitrogen. Carbon dioxide. EVERYTHING IS CHEMICALS. And as for natural. So is horse shite and arsenic. Those products should be banned just for bring made by people either too stupid to be trusted to handle making a bed let alone into a lab or a factory. OR they are utter shysters who know what they are doing and know it's wrong and are preying on people who don't know better. I'm assuming mix of the two. It might sound like a small thing, but slapping natural and chemical free on crap makes it even more alluring to people trying to find that magic bullet that will fix everything. BEcause, after all, it's "natural". These products, ads and idiots online pushing are are vile. TikTok is a pit.That is killing people with this crap.
6:41 like you said before in the video, this one or the one I just watched TikTok will remove your videos fast. I’ve had them remove mine. I’ve heard have heard a lot of people that I know or either I watched your content and they’re usually telling the truth. They hate truth tellers all the apps hate true tellers, but it seems only if you do something outrageous or extreme is the only way you get anywhere on TikTok and then since they let you buy with so much for so long these people seem to get real comfortable and then boom just pulled out. U2 will pull the rug out or way quicker and I don’t care how much money you’re pulling in look at some of the big names they’ve drew off and have left off or left them in monetized. Yeah you too still makes add money on their content. I mean they don’t have to leave it up there but I know I I want to erase my work. So basically, if you’re putting “” normal “ content up on TikTok you have more chance of me being then if you put up stuff that’s against the rules until they decide enough is enough and I believe that’s already happened to CLR I’m not sure. I’ve been not well the last couple days.
I have always been up and down with my weight. I look back at photos from when I was younger and thought I was overweight but I really wasn't...I have always been tall and so was larger in general. I developed an unhealthy relationship with food, I tend to binge a lot, particularly when I have a bad day with my journey to become healthier. Also, with my healthy eating and exercising - I could see I lot weight but when I weigh myself, I'm the same weight, which then leads me to become disheartened and binge - I would get obsessed with numbers (I now no longer weigh myself, I go by eye and how I feel within myself.) At school, my thin friends always used to call themselves fat, which is horrible that they feel that way but also made me feel shit because it was like "if you're fat, what am I?". Such an awful thing for people to go through, any and all EDs are horrible! The fact people push that narrative to capitalise off our lack of health. It's so sad.
I enjoy your other videos but this is genuinely your best video you've done and as someone who is currently trying to put weight back on cos of and ed seeing shit like this makes me upset and angry and glad on not on tiktok well done for educating tho
As a former ED of the too small variety, I tried EVERYTHING sold to me as weight loss, now I have trouble with my intestines. I went the other way and ate too much when emotional, and started doing the vomiting ED, now I have extremely sensitive teeth. At 29 I finally started dealing with everything, and I now eat what I want and exercise when I can or want to, and I have therapy. Nothing in a can or a drink can sort out what is going on in your brain, no matter what weight you get to. And there are worse things than being fat.
would just like to say a big "f you" to my ED which ive been struggling with since pretty much primary school (thank you undiagnosed autism) i used to throw away my school dinners (which my parents had to pay for) because bits where touching on the small disgusting plastic tray which i was given, fair enough it was colourful but wtaf? my mom had to get rid of the scales because i was addicted to those small small numbers and the fact i was coping by telling myself "oh its just bloating" or "ill do it again in the morning" was just not the right frame of mind for a 15-17 year old. im 19 now and all these "wieaid" accounts on tiktok from minors using kpop pictures to count calories is triggering and quite frankly upsetting to see young children absolutely addicted to a small body. i regret what i went through, in many different ways and some ways i still want to be in that mindset and still am but im better and my body does not thank me at all for the shite i put myself through just to feel small. so please if a friend is struggling encourage them and help them see that they are more than just a number or if you see a minor on tiktok struggling, report the content there and stay safe
I was obese, 40 kilos over weight. Innever dieted, I just ate a lots of protein fruits vegetables and nuts and seeds and suitable carbs. I was bombarded with both "fruits are full of sugars so are carrots" blah blah as well as ED accusations. Questions if I used weight loss drugs. Not one person but my uncle (who is a former body builder) had the sense to understand I did this healthy way. I have good muscle defenition I need strength in my work. Really opened my eyes to the madness that is around the culture of loosing weight especially for women either it's always bad to loose weight it MUST be unhealthy (no wonder when this is the mainstream of idea of it) or the other extreme that you neee to be a puritant. Just eat enough and lots of nutrient filled whole foods, have treats every now and then, be active keep your body healthy. It means both not eating garbage and too much as well as fueling your body enough. The weight loss was not hard or the muscle building but the bombardment of bs that came from every direction. Filtering all that out made me succeed to live in a healthy body. Makes me sad that diet culture has devided people in these unhealthy camps of extreme skinny admirerers and fat activists.
There was this girl at school who would send my friend messages of all the calories in her food that she ate that day. She did this for so long, she started to develop an Ed. She would skip lunch and was so depressed. I wish no one to go through anything like this because it’s a horrible situation to be in. Don’t listen to beauty standards of others and social media. And love yourself, because if you do you will become a happier, healthier person. ❤
I narrowly avoided developing an ED because I dated someone who had one at a time when I was considering just skipping meals. Honestly, seeing what it did to her was awful. she was insecure, lightheaded, drained, overly emotionally literally every day. there are so many healthier ways to lose weight, at this point in my life I've been going to the gym and eating more protein for 4 months and the difference is already insane. At the very least, just not posting about them would so easily reduce the amount of people with them, thanks for calling this out
I had an issue due to bullying that turnt into me hating my size and weight I was skinny so I did everything I could to be heavier and bigger because I thought I would be “stronger” thankfully I’m not in that state of mind and am happy with my current weight which is considerably more but I am 24 now and not a teenager when I was skinny thinking that was a problem Obviously I look at all these anti weight things and they look stupid and obviously made of BS But I even at 1 point was impressionable and young it’s crazy there too many of these companies taking advantage and not enough people actually calling them out So good on ya doesn’t matter the size of the platform having more people call it out and actually describe why these don’t work is amazing good job to ya!
Sidenote: I think it would be cool if you did a video or even a series of videos educating/debunking myths or misconceptions from tiktok, in the style you did this video. Not the big things that everyone talks about(dont eat tidepods, dont jump off speedung boats), but more regular things like THIS that go mostly unchecked. Balance the bulls**t!
I found you through your collab with Jake Baz. I thought you were really funny and entertaining, and you cover crazy people i have a guilty pleasure hearing about lol This video is something else though.... it's great in a different way. Thank you for covering it and being brave enough to share your personal feelings. I'm excited to see where you go from here 😊
My ED started because I was being bullied by my teacher in primary school. It was my coping mechanism but along with me clearly being depressed and have an ED I was too young to have depression said the professionals and blamed my parents claiming they were force feeding me and got child protective services involved. It took until I was 18 to hear for the first time I had an ED and not comfort eating or some other term not addressing what it is. In part to my Nan getting dementia and then shortly after dying only last year things spiralled and it was like a switch in my head that would usually turn off by itself when it would flare up over the years this time it wasn’t going away and the weight I was putting on I knew if I didn’t try to do something I’d die. I’m currently getting help from the weight management team and it’s not been easy but from august til now I’ve managed to lose 24.4 kg and will be starting therapy about my ED in January aswell which I’ve never done before. Thank you for making this video, it’s in part seeing things like this that made me believe losing weight wasn’t doable, it seemed far fetched. It’s such harmful bullshit if you don’t know the right information
I've struggled with ed my whole life. I was 90 lbs at my lowest and I still wasn't happy. I couldn't sit comfortably on chairs because my spine hurt and I still thought I was too big. I had a thigh gap and I still thought my thighs were too fat. It is a mental illness, it is not the way, food is fuel, I used to only eat apple sauce and that's it, my hair was falling out, I want happy, I wasn't looking forward to anything but the numbers on the scale, and even then I would ve terrified if I hadn't lost anything. It is important to feed yourself, eat what makes you happy, what makes you feel good. Do some exercises, keep your body moving, do stuff that's fun for you, to be strong, not skinny. Take care of your brain, of yourself. Food is an amazing part of our life. Take care of yourself.
I'm way too thin because of medical conditions, but i know I'm too thin so i do everything i can to spread the message that I'm not healthy and no one should strive for this. When i was running for congress, I'd wear 2 or 3 layers of clothes to mask it. I heard too many teenage girls praising my weight that i stated speaking out against it in hopes that someone would listen. We can't praise unhealthiness in any form, whether too big or too thin. The idea should just be 'healthy'.
I wish you would’ve put the measurements in feet and inches to now I have no idea how tall these people are. I don’t even know if I can figure that out. (I will try. ) I’m not good at math that is not my forte. You give me a different subject but I can’t do math. I can count money and I can make change because I worked in a couple of grocery stores (but next time try do that please). I’m sure others would appreciate it too and if there’s another system out there that’s popular in many countries maybe put the third one up there also. Isn’t that a shame. I don’t even know how many metric systems are use 🥰
I got really sick with a stomach problem and infection in my esophagus. It caused me a lot of unprovoked retching and sickness, even on an empty stomach. To the point I would eat the food I want and enjoy and still feel sick to the point I’d throw up in restaurant bathrooms to feel better and try and finish my meal. Smells and everything would overwhelm me and make me feel even more sick even though I still wanted to enjoy my meal. Sometimes I’d be so excited to go get some food then take a few bites and feel anxious, full and overwhelmed and not want to tell anyone incase they judged me or assumed I have an ed. It was never textbook Ed but I still struggle a lot of the traits of purging without the binging and I don’t even know why it does make me worry about it subconsciously. I lost a lot of weight and people always commented on it like it was a positive even though nothing I experienced was fun
my brain tricks me into thinking I am overweight to an unhealthy degree, and that I'm losing or not gaining muscle from working out, but deep down I know I am healthy and my body size and weight is completely normal
I work in a small business vitamin supplement company and we don’t give any health advice! It’s written on all packages that they are not food replacement and MUST be taken with a meal, and if there are any health issues with a customer, we advise they talk to a doctor before consuming! I’m not the healthiest of people and I’m definitely overweight, but I’m not judged by the people I work with! My boss is not at all about social media (he doesn’t even have any social media accounts and even has a Nokia brick phone) and relays on word of mouth and reviews for business
Its ok to want to loose weight on your own decision but plenty make sure to take care or yourself throughout the journy mentality ❤ im over weight and its difficult to loose weight due to intence anxiety so please everyone support one another's needs and health take care of yourselves ❤
I feel like the only way to prevent harm from ED content is to just not engage with it and post the opposite without bringing attention to it. I’ve been doing better the last handful of months but even content like this is triggering and is the only reason I watch, and I’m sure other sick individuals. Knowing the risks and everything makes it more appealing for some. Very very difficult topic. Everyone participating in the behaviors should keep their accounts private so it doesn’t influence kids, cause I swear it never goes away once it enters.
I think regardless if someone has dealt with an ED themself, they should be able to talk about it. Coming from someone currently struggling, nobody wins from people staying quiet. My bf doesn’t have an ED but he talks to me about mine regularly to make sure I’m doing alright and he doesn’t need to step in. I’ve had lots of friends who’ve never struggled with their eating who’ve talked lots both on and offline about EDs because it’s either something that interests them or something that concerns them. It’s crazy that people say you can’t speak on this stuff if you haven’t dealt with it. Sure people who’ve struggled, and especially those who are recovering or in remission have a very special perspective on it that no one else can have. But that doesn’t mean we silence everyone else.
Drinking apple cider vinegar has been shown to help blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetics. I do similar to what she recommended. I make tea with a lemon and honey flavored chamomile tea bag and then add 1 to 2 tablespoons of ACV. I actually really enjoy the taste that way. But yeah it's not going to make you lose weight lol
A while ago i fell into a sorta ED, Like i was barely eating anything at all, definitely less than 1000 cals a day, and working out a bunch.

Tumblr ED culture messed me up for a long time. I'm 26 now and still struggle to get away from restricting and feeling like I have any worth when I gain weight. It makes me terrified to have a child who could access that same cycle.
yea im a child that's kinda going through that right now, but because of twitter. it really sucks.
I didn't realise how consuming these little videos can affect me, thank you
My friend when I was 14 asked a guy out and he denied her laughed and called her fat... the shit I watched her go through after that was heartbreaking. I was living with her family and the bulimia is where it started.. few month later I came home one night and found her with her wrist slit in the tub.. absolutely horrible and she had a lot of support and a lot of people who loved her and wanted to help. Sometimes you can't 😢

This earned a sub for sure. These kinds of things are prevalent in the young male population as well but looking back at the era I grew up in the early 2000s it seems insane how normalized this stuff was for young women. A literal reality show where the prize was a full body plastic surgery transformation seems like a fever dream now but was hardly questioned at the time. Also another where women would walk on stage in front of a panel of judges that essentially bullied the contestants to their face about everything wrong with their body.
I’m 30 and lived through this phase on Tumblr and holy shit it’s taken over 15 years to work through my disordered eating habits due to content like this. It’s vile and I’m so sad to see this happening again
Thank you so much for talking about this! I've found myself comparing my body to others on tiktok and it fecking sucks. I really needed to hear this and I'm sure many others did too ❤
It’s so weird how plus size people will be bullied for trying to accept there body but be praised when they loose weight even if it’s unhealthy
I do not believe people should be unhealthy and accept it and not grow from it . I do believe in accepting where you are at the presets and learning/growing from it and enjoy the journey. Skinny or fat, People should not be bullying others for where they are.
People have such a sick mind to assume and encourage people to eat unhealthy to gain weight or lose weight and it sucks to see.
Because both are unhealthy
I used to be a part of this mommy group on facebook....i had two c sections 11 months apart from each other without giving myself the proper time to heal so when i lost the weight i ended up with a lot of loose skin that just sits there and does nothing no matter how much i workout, eat right, its there. While i was in the mommy group it was so grotesque how the moms treated each other from making fun of their bodies, stretch marks, scars, issues after delivery or if they didnt dress a certain way, they would also post pictures of their "bounce back" after having kids saying they're a "skinny legend" its fine if you're posting update pictures like before pregnancy/after pregnancy but my god they took it and stretched it too far with hate and wanderlust for being thin...
I’m in ED recovery, I would never wish anyone especially children to feel like this way about themselves; ED self harm just bad as substance/alcohol abuse that can kill you!
THANK YOU FOR MAKING A VIDEO ON THIS!!!! This stuff fuelled my ed for 10years !! And was how it began!!
I struggled with an ED from around 12 to when I got pregnant with my daughter at 22. I’ve only relapsed a couple times and she’s five now. I’m very proud of it. But when I was deep into it I was SUPER active on pro ana forums. I struggled with bulimia and I still have a hard time, I will always have to fight it off once in a while. It’s such a monster. It’s 2023 now and this type of content should be moderated.
i just decided to delete TikTok and try and avoid these videos at all cost. It deffo isn’t good for any young child to be seeing the stuff in this video and being a child who saw videos like this when she was younger, it is so damaging and makes me so sad
As a black skinny/average sized girl in black culture usually having curves in the right places like big breats, hips,butt,thighs with a small waist is desirable as you can see in media like Hip hop and due to being called “not a real black girl” I later got body dysmorphia and started stuffing my breasts at 13 yrs old and eating more than I could handle it’s very different seeing the other side in white/asian media where you just have to be skinny with a figure
Btw I’m now in like my senior year and have learned that it’s all just temporary even our body’s so who cares what people think we’re not gonna be looking this way forever and the people who actually love you could care less about your body as long as you’re healthy💞💓
So much respect for you covering this despite your personal ties around the subject. TikTok is poisonous and too many people are overlooking the severity of over half the stuff that’s posted on there. I’m pregnant currently with my baby girl and I prey that she doesn’t ever have to go through anything that bring her body and soul harm. Keep addressing the elephants in the room that people don’t want to talk about… it makes such a difference ❤️
What I’ve really tried to come to terms with is the “why” I’m trying to lose weight. I’m actually completely fine with the weight I’m at right now, but I went on a very easy hike with a friend the other day and was completely winded. So now I’m working on endurance. I also do yoga and other core exercises because I have back problems and working on my core will help in between chiropractor visits
I’m doing my best on what my body can “do” and not what it looks like. That’s not to say that people shouldn’t be proud of their bodies! It’s just how I personally have come to feel about my own, so there’s no unattainable goal that I keep trying to achieve
Just wanna say thank you for this, honestly this is such an import topic to cover and to rase awareness to. Hearing the words 'personal choice' for loosing weight had in me in tears bc you're so correct and I needed that. I could go on for ages about this topic but I just wanted to thank you
Katie is one of the realest creators on this platform and is using her platform for the right causes. This is an incredibly serious situation and it’s not spoken about enough and someone like Katie deserves a bigger platform so more people see it. Because too many creators don’t address things like this where situations like this will affect some of their audience.
We are always here for you Kat, I really hope you are doing well, I'm so sorry you've had to experience the bullying in the past 💖
as someone who struggles with food, thank you for talking about this
TikTok influenced my brain through those videos which led me to the situation I’m in now. Yes, I was always not pleased with my body since a young age but I managed to live through it until my summer break started. I wanted to change for the good because I saw so many videos and I thought that if I follow them, I’ll look exactly like them. Once summer break started, I couldn’t stop counting my calories, weighing myself every single time after I used the toilet, always labelling food as “bad” or “not good for me” etc. Thats went on for a while till now. It only gets worse. It only leads you to an ED which nobody should go through. I’m just a young 15 year old teenage girl. I never wanted to go through something so hard! You have to think about it, some even might lose their friends through all this shit that your going through. I almost came to that stage that I never had time for my friends and family because I was too obsessed with looking prettier then everyone until I realised that I’m just not on the right path this moment.
I’m begging for whoever is reading this, don’t let them take over you and control you. Everyone is beautiful in their own kinda way- sure, it’s maybe hard to understand because we don’t look like them, but that’s not the point. The biggest part is that we should all be beautiful from the inside! That’s the important part❤️ And I’m sorry for the ones that are going through something like this. Please, talk to someone you trust about this- if not a therapist. You should not let TikTok brainwash you at all into thinking Ed’s are good. Never.
I tried the apple cider thing for different reasons.
So I can say it 100% did not make me lose weight, I had no changed to my appetite, and it didn’t work for the reason I tried it lol.
Put it on your chips and call it a day lol
Massive respect to you Katie for putting out this content. As much as I enjoy your deep dives into the ludicrousness of Elphaba and the arch no*ce Paul Breach etc this one is such an important topic to cover. My daughter, when she was in her teens suffered from an ED that very nearly hospitalised her as she bought into so many fads and quick fixes pushed by absolute charlatans. Thankfully she is so much better now and she has a healthier relationship with food and is more accepting of herself. It was a horrible time and if you can reach anyone with your truths about these total shitbags who prey on the insecurities of susceptible individuals then more power to you. Keep up the good work girl, your words of wisdom are needed and much appreciated.
The community on twitter is even worse. Unlike tiktok they believe that it isn't a bad or serious community and it's roped me into rock bottom. I wouldn't recommend covering because they find people covering it hilarious it's so disgusting
As a 14yo who has an ed because of these tiktoks, I really want these vids to get banned of tiktok
Thank you for talking about this. It is so important for everyone to hear but especially the younger generations.
as someone who has an ED and has been suffering with one for more than half my life, videos like those on tiktok have send me into a relapse on multiple occasions. Im only just recovering from the last one. I report it and they say it doesn't violate their terms of service. I block/dont recomment this content and its back within a week. Tiktok really need to either restrict it or get rid of it all together.
If you get triggered by TikTok maybe you should delete the app if it makes you eat uncontrollable
doesn't make me eat uncontrollable, sometimes it makes me stop eating if I see the wrong things.
Nice video to be recommended on one of my fast days.
I appreciate you saying that wanting to lose weight is fine because it is, I'm slightly overweight/chubby so I'm on a diet where I fast two times a week (it's 0-500 calories on a fast day but I can't be bothered to count so I just don't eat) and when I had access to scales I was losing weight at a healthy rate. So there are healthy diets.
I appreciate you making a video on this topic. I'm currently struggling with my weight and there is so much bullshit out there that it's maddening. Thank you so much for addressing this subject. Love the channel by the way ❤️
great topic to bring attention to!! proud of you and your work, Katie
Thank you so much for talking about this! The ED community is honestly mental at the moment, esspecially when it comes to supplements and workout routines. I struggled for years with an ED and it was down to social media and the competitiveness of it. A while i saw two women who were using NG tubes, medical devices in order to lose weight and it honestly made me so sad. Its also so sad seeing some PTs harbour such a bad relationship with scales and making it a way of dealing with weight and if you see the number go uo it means to restrict more and more
im so scared to see young young people on tik Tok seeing this with no idea that it is dangerous
The thing is though is that ED culture is deeply ingrained into the medical field. I was genuinely told by a nurse that I need to start taking ozempic in the hopes that it will make me throw up so I can loose weight even faster on a 500 calorie a day diet.
Friendly reminder that Nutritionists don't have any lind of certification or regulatory board. If someone is calling themselves a nutritionist, it means they failed to become a Registered Dietician. RDs are the legitimate medical professionals.
If it sounds too good to be true, it almost certainly is. Thank you for making this video and sharing your experiences. Speaking up and calling out these charlatans is so crucial and not enough people are doing it
As usual good to see you upload and your close to 19k now !! , I'm glad you talked about this and brought some light to the subject , it's sick and people know there are children on tik tok(and every other social media platform basically) and yet they still talk about it basically telling them theres something wrong with you if you don't look like this or weigh this and as some one that has personally suffered as well as both my sisters its hard and it dosen't help when you have people like this posting because all it takes is one post for you to see an you go on a spiral , there needs to be more regulations on social media.
i've been on a slight downward spiral recently- this really helped me. thank you for your honesty and kindness
Thank you very much. I really appreciate your videos and think that I you are providing a massive service to young people. Thank you again
It’s super reassuring to me to know that I’m not the only one that still thinks ED thoughts, I’ve struggled with it alone and I forced myself through recovery alone and knowing that I’m not alone is very nice, thank you
I follow the ongoing stuff with that tic toc girl who shant be named, Insane they let stuff stay up when its so harmful.
I started having ED issues at 14 because of my really shitty ex boyfriend. I was SKINNY!!! I was UNDERWEIGHT!!! And I STILL thought I needed to lose weight. I was obsessed with certain “look” I wanted to achieve. I have permanent damage to my body because of the things I did to “lose weight”. I hid it from everyone, for years. I wish that I had opened up and I wish I hadn’t fallen into this bullshit. Honestly, mine wasn’t even to the point that other peoples gets too. But I still have permanent issues that are worsened because of that history. Like stomach and intestinal problems, joint problems, etc. which all can be caused/worsened by malnutrition. I wish I had someone like you who had said these things to me. Thank you. Nobody deserves to hate themselves so much that they slowly kill themselves to be what they think will make them “better”.
im so sorry to hear you went through that! it truly is an awful problem that needs to be spoke about more to protect young people from falling for such an easy trap :(
My fave video yet but pls don’t give up on CLA 🤣😭
it's honestly pathetic that people will still have the cheek to question why young people are effectively harming themselves in regards to their diets - society is FUBAR
Such a sound voice you gave to this topic thank you. I listened to the video so I didn’t get as triggered watching the TikToks but your way of shutting down and calling out these people healed something inside me (I’ve been recovering for years now but this was really nice)
Bravo..and very well said,
Tik tok is a disease I don't have thankfully
I vote for a weekly katie rant about the crap thats being promoted to vulnerable people
as a kid i was very skinny i suffered from an ed its crazy how people promote anorexia im healthy now tho 😊
First, I'm so glad you are covering this. For me, regrettably, I still struggle at times with my ED and seeing young girls following a dangerous miserable path I walked already is just heartbreaking. So glad you cover this. Also though? Small twitch. CHEMICAL FREE? So... the bottle is empty? Well, no. Even oxygen is a chemical. Nitrogen. Carbon dioxide. EVERYTHING IS CHEMICALS. And as for natural. So is horse shite and arsenic. Those products should be banned just for bring made by people either too stupid to be trusted to handle making a bed let alone into a lab or a factory. OR they are utter shysters who know what they are doing and know it's wrong and are preying on people who don't know better. I'm assuming mix of the two. It might sound like a small thing, but slapping natural and chemical free on crap makes it even more alluring to people trying to find that magic bullet that will fix everything. BEcause, after all, it's "natural". These products, ads and idiots online pushing are are vile. TikTok is a pit.That is killing people with this crap.
twitter was the worst for feeding my ED. still struggle daily with the urges to restrict
6:41 like you said before in the video, this one or the one I just watched TikTok will remove your videos fast. I’ve had them remove mine. I’ve heard have heard a lot of people that I know or either I watched your content and they’re usually telling the truth. They hate truth tellers all the apps hate true tellers, but it seems only if you do something outrageous or extreme is the only way you get anywhere on TikTok and then since they let you buy with so much for so long these people seem to get real comfortable and then boom just pulled out. U2 will pull the rug out or way quicker and I don’t care how much money you’re pulling in look at some of the big names they’ve drew off and have left off or left them in monetized. Yeah you too still makes add money on their content. I mean they don’t have to leave it up there but I know I I want to erase my work. So basically, if you’re putting “” normal “ content up on TikTok you have more chance of me being then if you put up stuff that’s against the rules until they decide enough is enough and I believe that’s already happened to CLR I’m not sure. I’ve been not well the last couple days.
I have always been up and down with my weight. I look back at photos from when I was younger and thought I was overweight but I really wasn't...I have always been tall and so was larger in general. I developed an unhealthy relationship with food, I tend to binge a lot, particularly when I have a bad day with my journey to become healthier.
Also, with my healthy eating and exercising - I could see I lot weight but when I weigh myself, I'm the same weight, which then leads me to become disheartened and binge - I would get obsessed with numbers (I now no longer weigh myself, I go by eye and how I feel within myself.)
At school, my thin friends always used to call themselves fat, which is horrible that they feel that way but also made me feel shit because it was like "if you're fat, what am I?".
Such an awful thing for people to go through, any and all EDs are horrible! The fact people push that narrative to capitalise off our lack of health. It's so sad.
I enjoy your other videos but this is genuinely your best video you've done and as someone who is currently trying to put weight back on cos of and ed seeing shit like this makes me upset and angry and glad on not on tiktok well done for educating tho
Well done for speaking about this this is is disgusting as a a previous ED victim myself I hope people listen to you! Much love 🥰
Thank you so much for making this video
As a former ED of the too small variety, I tried EVERYTHING sold to me as weight loss, now I have trouble with my intestines. I went the other way and ate too much when emotional, and started doing the vomiting ED, now I have extremely sensitive teeth. At 29 I finally started dealing with everything, and I now eat what I want and exercise when I can or want to, and I have therapy. Nothing in a can or a drink can sort out what is going on in your brain, no matter what weight you get to. And there are worse things than being fat.
would just like to say a big "f you" to my ED which ive been struggling with since pretty much primary school (thank you undiagnosed autism) i used to throw away my school dinners (which my parents had to pay for) because bits where touching on the small disgusting plastic tray which i was given, fair enough it was colourful but wtaf? my mom had to get rid of the scales because i was addicted to those small small numbers and the fact i was coping by telling myself "oh its just bloating" or "ill do it again in the morning" was just not the right frame of mind for a 15-17 year old. im 19 now and all these "wieaid" accounts on tiktok from minors using kpop pictures to count calories is triggering and quite frankly upsetting to see young children absolutely addicted to a small body. i regret what i went through, in many different ways and some ways i still want to be in that mindset and still am but im better and my body does not thank me at all for the shite i put myself through just to feel small. so please if a friend is struggling encourage them and help them see that they are more than just a number or if you see a minor on tiktok struggling, report the content there and stay safe
This video is very relevant and I hope it reaches many people.
FINALLY SOMEONE IS TALKING ABOUT THIS!!! this has bothered me for so long
planning on making more like this!! it’s very upsetting stuff🫤🫤
I was obese, 40 kilos over weight. Innever dieted, I just ate a lots of protein fruits vegetables and nuts and seeds and suitable carbs.
I was bombarded with both "fruits are full of sugars so are carrots" blah blah as well as ED accusations.
Questions if I used weight loss drugs.
Not one person but my uncle (who is a former body builder) had the sense to understand I did this healthy way.
I have good muscle defenition I need strength in my work.
Really opened my eyes to the madness that is around the culture of loosing weight especially for women either it's always bad to loose weight it MUST be unhealthy (no wonder when this is the mainstream of idea of it) or the other extreme that you neee to be a puritant.
Just eat enough and lots of nutrient filled whole foods, have treats every now and then, be active keep your body healthy.
It means both not eating garbage and too much as well as fueling your body enough.
The weight loss was not hard or the muscle building but the bombardment of bs that came from every direction.
Filtering all that out made me succeed to live in a healthy body.
Makes me sad that diet culture has devided people in these unhealthy camps of extreme skinny admirerers and fat activists.
There was this girl at school who would send my friend messages of all the calories in her food that she ate that day. She did this for so long, she started to develop an Ed. She would skip lunch and was so depressed. I wish no one to go through anything like this because it’s a horrible situation to be in. Don’t listen to beauty standards of others and social media. And love yourself, because if you do you will become a happier, healthier person. ❤
the way i gasped when i saw this wasn’t about elphaba
don't be fooled, it'll be back
I narrowly avoided developing an ED because I dated someone who had one at a time when I was considering just skipping meals. Honestly, seeing what it did to her was awful. she was insecure, lightheaded, drained, overly emotionally literally every day. there are so many healthier ways to lose weight, at this point in my life I've been going to the gym and eating more protein for 4 months and the difference is already insane. At the very least, just not posting about them would so easily reduce the amount of people with them, thanks for calling this out
I had an issue due to bullying that turnt into me hating my size and weight I was skinny so I did everything I could to be heavier and bigger because I thought I would be “stronger” thankfully I’m not in that state of mind and am happy with my current weight which is considerably more but I am 24 now and not a teenager when I was skinny thinking that was a problem
Obviously I look at all these anti weight things and they look stupid and obviously made of BS
But I even at 1 point was impressionable and young it’s crazy there too many of these companies taking advantage and not enough people actually calling them out
So good on ya doesn’t matter the size of the platform having more people call it out and actually describe why these don’t work is amazing good job to ya!
Sidenote: I think it would be cool if you did a video or even a series of videos educating/debunking myths or misconceptions from tiktok, in the style you did this video.
Not the big things that everyone talks about(dont eat tidepods, dont jump off speedung boats), but more regular things like THIS that go mostly unchecked. Balance the bulls**t!
I found you through your collab with Jake Baz. I thought you were really funny and entertaining, and you cover crazy people i have a guilty pleasure hearing about lol
This video is something else though.... it's great in a different way. Thank you for covering it and being brave enough to share your personal feelings.
I'm excited to see where you go from here 😊
My ED started because I was being bullied by my teacher in primary school. It was my coping mechanism but along with me clearly being depressed and have an ED I was too young to have depression said the professionals and blamed my parents claiming they were force feeding me and got child protective services involved. It took until I was 18 to hear for the first time I had an ED and not comfort eating or some other term not addressing what it is. In part to my Nan getting dementia and then shortly after dying only last year things spiralled and it was like a switch in my head that would usually turn off by itself when it would flare up over the years this time it wasn’t going away and the weight I was putting on I knew if I didn’t try to do something I’d die. I’m currently getting help from the weight management team and it’s not been easy but from august til now I’ve managed to lose 24.4 kg and will be starting therapy about my ED in January aswell which I’ve never done before. Thank you for making this video, it’s in part seeing things like this that made me believe losing weight wasn’t doable, it seemed far fetched. It’s such harmful bullshit if you don’t know the right information
I've struggled with ed my whole life. I was 90 lbs at my lowest and I still wasn't happy. I couldn't sit comfortably on chairs because my spine hurt and I still thought I was too big. I had a thigh gap and I still thought my thighs were too fat. It is a mental illness, it is not the way, food is fuel, I used to only eat apple sauce and that's it, my hair was falling out, I want happy, I wasn't looking forward to anything but the numbers on the scale, and even then I would ve terrified if I hadn't lost anything. It is important to feed yourself, eat what makes you happy, what makes you feel good. Do some exercises, keep your body moving, do stuff that's fun for you, to be strong, not skinny. Take care of your brain, of yourself. Food is an amazing part of our life. Take care of yourself.
Fair play to you, the triggers are obvious, but you smash it. Stay strong, you are gonna give someone with e/d strength
thank you for this no one ever speaks about this side of tiktok. also what do you use for the white waterline it always looks perfect
I'm way too thin because of medical conditions, but i know I'm too thin so i do everything i can to spread the message that I'm not healthy and no one should strive for this. When i was running for congress, I'd wear 2 or 3 layers of clothes to mask it. I heard too many teenage girls praising my weight that i stated speaking out against it in hopes that someone would listen. We can't praise unhealthiness in any form, whether too big or too thin. The idea should just be 'healthy'.
I wish you would’ve put the measurements in feet and inches to now I have no idea how tall these people are. I don’t even know if I can figure that out. (I will try. ) I’m not good at math that is not my forte. You give me a different subject but I can’t do math. I can count money and I can make change because I worked in a couple of grocery stores (but next time try do that please). I’m sure others would appreciate it too and if there’s another system out there that’s popular in many countries maybe put the third one up there also. Isn’t that a shame. I don’t even know how many metric systems are use 🥰
I got really sick with a stomach problem and infection in my esophagus. It caused me a lot of unprovoked retching and sickness, even on an empty stomach.
To the point I would eat the food I want and enjoy and still feel sick to the point I’d throw up in restaurant bathrooms to feel better and try and finish my meal. Smells and everything would overwhelm me and make me feel even more sick even though I still wanted to enjoy my meal. Sometimes I’d be so excited to go get some food then take a few bites and feel anxious, full and overwhelmed and not want to tell anyone incase they judged me or assumed I have an ed.
It was never textbook Ed but I still struggle a lot of the traits of purging without the binging and I don’t even know why it does make me worry about it subconsciously. I lost a lot of weight and people always commented on it like it was a positive even though nothing I experienced was fun
as someone who is recovering from anorexia, thankyou for this❤️
my brain tricks me into thinking I am overweight to an unhealthy degree, and that I'm losing or not gaining muscle from working out, but deep down I know I am healthy and my body size and weight is completely normal
8:15 those literally look like edible packages
I work in a small business vitamin supplement company and we don’t give any health advice! It’s written on all packages that they are not food replacement and MUST be taken with a meal, and if there are any health issues with a customer, we advise they talk to a doctor before consuming! I’m not the healthiest of people and I’m definitely overweight, but I’m not judged by the people I work with!
My boss is not at all about social media (he doesn’t even have any social media accounts and even has a Nokia brick phone) and relays on word of mouth and reviews for business
twitter is also very VERY bad abt promoting ED's
We need more people to call out toxic diet culture and ED behavior
how is this shit up on that app but when i try to post about my anorexia RECOVERY i get a community guidelines violation.
Maybe because nobody cares about your "RECOVERY" lol- You certaintly dont look like you had anorexia, just sayin.
I lost a lot of weight. But I did it through a clinic so had a lot of professionals have an input Into my care
Its ok to want to loose weight on your own decision but plenty make sure to take care or yourself throughout the journy mentality ❤ im over weight and its difficult to loose weight due to intence anxiety so please everyone support one another's needs and health take care of yourselves ❤
I feel like the only way to prevent harm from ED content is to just not engage with it and post the opposite without bringing attention to it. I’ve been doing better the last handful of months but even content like this is triggering and is the only reason I watch, and I’m sure other sick individuals. Knowing the risks and everything makes it more appealing for some. Very very difficult topic. Everyone participating in the behaviors should keep their accounts private so it doesn’t influence kids, cause I swear it never goes away once it enters.
Maybe I’m weird but it’s never occurred to me to look up a models weight yeah I just had to compare them. Thanks to Siri and you my dear. 🤣🤣🥰🥰
i havent heard snyone talk ab this even though its been like huge on tiktok since i was like 13 (im 18 now). i finally deleted tiktok this summer
I was thinking they are not weighing too little. Then I realized I'm just short LOL That would be healthy weight for ME
Unrelated but I have the same face piercings as you!! Although im getting my brow pierced in December :))
This is not considered as losing weight, these people don't even know that they're harming their own health by doing this so-called trend. 😑
Couldn’t have said it better. Thank you
I think regardless if someone has dealt with an ED themself, they should be able to talk about it. Coming from someone currently struggling, nobody wins from people staying quiet. My bf doesn’t have an ED but he talks to me about mine regularly to make sure I’m doing alright and he doesn’t need to step in. I’ve had lots of friends who’ve never struggled with their eating who’ve talked lots both on and offline about EDs because it’s either something that interests them or something that concerns them. It’s crazy that people say you can’t speak on this stuff if you haven’t dealt with it. Sure people who’ve struggled, and especially those who are recovering or in remission have a very special perspective on it that no one else can have. But that doesn’t mean we silence everyone else.
thank you. this convinced me to eat dinner
you always deserve dinner, you deserve to take care of your body!!
Mayo Clinic is my go-to when ever I need to research something medical. Every doctor of mine I talk to about this approves too.
This video slapped, thanks mate
WE ARE BACK AGAIN KATICLYZM POSTED
Literally giving me tumblr flashbacks
you’re a good person katie, not JUST a commentary channel
Very glad Tumblr has become a very different space these days
Drinking apple cider vinegar has been shown to help blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetics. I do similar to what she recommended. I make tea with a lemon and honey flavored chamomile tea bag and then add 1 to 2 tablespoons of ACV. I actually really enjoy the taste that way. But yeah it's not going to make you lose weight lol
