My Eating Disorder - My Parents Answer your Questions
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 кві 2012
- My mom and dad were amazing enough to answer some questions you guys asked about what it was like for them when I was struggling with an eating disorder. They felt it was important to give some advice to you parents and loved ones of people suffering from this, and to share their experiences for this series. It was difficult for us to talk about, and I realized it was the first time we've really sat down to discuss our feelings around this. I'm so grateful that they were brave enough to do this with me. I love you mom and dad!! Thank you so much!! And thank you all for watching!! Please leave your comments and questions below. I love hearing from you guys!! Next week I meet Jonathan (my personal trainer) for the first time in NYC!!!

Ugh god, I hate when parents cry. Especially dads. The second her dad started to get choked up I started tearing up.
Can we just point out how pretty Kayli's mom is like OMG I see where kayli gets it from
Slightly annoyed that a Victoria's Secret commercial was the ad for this video. You go Kayli. I struggle more with my body image now that I am older (22) than I did when I was in high school. I am thankful to have my fiancé by my side to tell me I am beautiful no matter what.
VS ew I’m sorry! I hope you’re doing better now x
this broke my heart I love her so much and it makes me so sad that she went through this and that so many people are affected by this. :(((
this was very touching... very random comment. Her parents look SO YOUNG! Wow!
***** actually her moms was 15 when she had kayli
When your dad said "We were kids raising kids," that really struck a cord with me. That reminded me of my parents. I don't have much family around, because we all grew up in a dysfunctional family. My parents basically did what their parents did--leave their children to totally fend for themselves. I just wish they would of given us a better life. Parents should make life better for future generations.
I thought I should share something from me. Thank you for sharing something of yourself that isn't easy to speak about. This video has been very insightful for me.
Kayli is just so beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
what a sincere contribution to a problem so devastating. So real to see the effects of this so many years later....they are still working on it. Thank you!
Brailee looks so like her grandpa
Agree
I think when kayli thinks of her own children and puts herself in the shoes of her parents, she really feels the pain and hurt and thats partly why she is tearing up so much. GOD BLESS YOU BABE xxx
I don't think i'm going to tell my family because I don't want to worry them, but from now on i'm really going to try and get better even if it will be hard.
I was depressed and did things I wasn't proud of. I never wanted my parents to know because I didn't want them to think of me as a problem. But, when they found out, they were nothing but supportive of me and helped me through everything. Parents will worry. It's apart of being a parent. But it's better to go through things with others rather than alone :) If you'd like to confide in someone and you really don't want to tell your parents, please know people do care and if you'd like, I'm willing to be one of them. :) Things will get better if you try to make them that way.
this is a really late reply, but I felt it is still important. if you haven't told your parents yet, or anyone else. please talk to someone, anyone. you should not have to deal with this all by yourself. you deserve to be healthy. if you need someone to talk to, just message me.
Of course it's going to worry them but that's just what's gonna need to be done! they will worry in the best way and may be your only way to help. its important you tell your parents, even if right now you don't think so in the long run you will be grateful that you at least where open with them. If they worry they are worried because they love you and they want to understand and not let it destroy you. It's not about I don't want them to worry it's about this is a serious situation, and you can get help and be happy again. You should be open with them anyway it's not just you, it's them too, and you can be better and live the best life. And that's because you can turn it around WITH your family by your side, it can only help
I struggled with a eating disorder when I was a teen. I ended up in an eating disorder clinic and being 5'10 and weighing 105 and 98 at my lightest. This video just touched my heart Kayli, Your beautiful inside and out! Thank you so much for sharing. ♥
I'm only just finding this video now but can I just say Kayli, you are so so brave for sharing your story and your experience with an eating disorder and your parents are also so brave for sharing their side of the story and how they dealt with Kayli's problem through this hard time. From this video, I could easily see how hard this was for all three of you. You are an inspiration and a true role model Kayli xxxx ❤️
Your honesty and courage in being so open about your story is admirable Kayli :) your an inspiration!
Thank you for sharing your story. There are resources for people who have eating disorders. When I was in high school I went to a support group called over eaters anonymous. It is not just for people who over eat but for those who have any eating disorder. It is a 12 step program just like AA. The people there are the nicest people who continue to struggle everyday. Support groups are such a huge help.
So proud of you Kayli for being brave and sharing your story with us. I myself struggled with bulimia as a teen and was also able to over come it. I'm so glad you were able to over come this disease because the world wouldn't get to see what an amazingly beautiful mother, wife, and person you truly are. Thank you for allowing us into your lives. You're such an inspiration to us all! God bless you and your family! Hugs to you all!
Kayli nobodys perfect, and that dosent mean that your still not beautiful everyone is.you dont have to worry about anyone judging you about your weight or how cute you are you are
Am I the only one that cried or almost cried through this video because I sure did.
This is such a brave thing you did Kayli, must of been the hardest video that you've ever made. I'm thankful that you shared this experience with UA-cam because you have helped so many people just by sharing this story with us, your such a inspiring women to me. xx
YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL KAYLI...you really are!!! You and your parents were so brave to do this much needed video. I wish you and your family nothing but the best.
Anyone noticed how instead of "you were" her parents say "you was" ;p
Kayli. This is my story right now. Thank you so much for sharing. You and your parents are so brave. Thank you.
Wow! I have so much more respect for you, Kayli. I never knew you suffered with this and I am sorry that you did but like your dad mentioned, the closeness/love of your family was the miracle you needed to improve. I am so glad that you had them. Having taught for the past 12 years, I know several students who have struggled with similar issues but weren't as fortunate. Thank you so much for sharing this heart-rending story.
This video has helped me so so much on my views on how much my mental illnesses have affected my mum and how grateful I am she's stuck with me through all of this. Your parents did an amazing job of answering the questions and being completely honest, even though we can see how hard this was for them. You are all giving people hope that there is a way through this and you don't have to be alone. Thank you for giving me hope. Xox
you are so strong for sharing this. hopefully this will help other people that are going through a similar situation.
Wow. I remember stumbling across this video a few years ago - before I'd ever heard of the Shaytards or Kayli and Casey. And to find this again knowing more about Kayli. Crazy.
Dude thats like meeting your mom not knowing that she's your mom... Thats cray!..
ME TOO!!!
Aww, Don't worry. Everything will be alright, theres still hope. It's not the end. Love yourself for who you are! You're special & so talented- No one wants to loose a person like you. Infact, the world needs people like you!
I love you xox such an ispiration!
Kayli, this video is so inspirational. You are very brave to post this. Youre beautiful💕 dont let anyone tell you otherwise
can't stop crying ..
This was excellent, I am so impressed with your parents for their honesty. Especially when your Dad said that parents need to obtain counseling to be able to help their children better. I am so impressed with your desire to help others and your ability to share your feelings. Thank you again, you have helped me to put some things on perspective!
I’m here watching this series in 2018 after Kayli’s vlogmas video bringing this up. This is so touching to see this and your family involved. I’m sure you’ve helped a lot of people with these videos.
Crying right now this touched me and made me feel wanted bless u kayli💗❤️
Was I the only one who got tears in there eyes
Is it raining in my room....?
Nope I cried for 2 1/2 hours after watching this
Your parents are so sincere and understanding. I can't say thank you enough!
You're extremely lucky. Your poor parents, can't imagine what they've gone through. They are amazing! Please love them and thank them for what they've done, they deserve it.
I think Kayli is REALLY brave for sharing this! Even though a few people are hating. 😣
Kayli i love you so much. You inspire so many young girls.
This video hit a spot in my heart. My sister has been struggling with an eating disorder for a couple of years now. There has been many ups and downs. Sometimes you don't know what to say or do, but just to be there for support and try to understand. By realizing there is a problem and wanting to seek outside help, things will get better--no immediate fix, but within time.
Thank you so so SOOOO much! This was a true blessing and your family is beautiful inside and out. This touched me, moved me and supported me. I needed this.
your parents look soooooooooo young and you ladies are beautiful. this was very touching and also very intersting. thank u for sharing something so sensitive and difficult to talk about.
Hey Kayli, you are so brave sharing this with your fans!
Wow. Watching this side of you kayli so vulnerable and humbled down i just feel like you are the first person i can call my role model. As i write this i am tearing up because Watching all these videos you have and your husband has of you and your kids and noticing how your such an amazing mother and how strong and brave you are to be the best mom you can be is so admiring . Being able to follow you because of all your beauty videos but to come across this and see your bravery and strength and will to be so loving to your family and to is your viewers i think means everything to us all. I love you kayli thank you for your inspiration i am so proud to say you are my role model as a mom,wife and just simply human being trying to be their best . You will always be in my prayers remember and dont ever forget God has made you MORE THAN A CONQUEROR AND WHEN YOU WANT TO GO AHEAD DONT BE AFRAID BECAUSE GOD IS ALREADY AHEAD. ❤️❤️❤️
Kayli you are such a wonderful inspiration. Thank you, sincerely, for not only sharing your story but for helping other girls who are struggling by doing so. You are beautiful inside and out and such a strong person. You are truly a role model and someone I admire. I hope you know that in making these UA-cam videos you are doing so much and reaching countless lives
I'm so glad your better now, keep on going strong.
I could not look at this i was about to start sobing :( Love u Kayli
I'm absolutely blown away by your family.This obviously can't be an easy topic to revist let alone sharing it with thousands of people. The fact that all 3 of you came together to rehash such intimate moments speaks volumes about your character. Your genuine and heartfelt story was remarkably told and gives hope to so many, not just in overcoming such a tragic events but that in building and maintaining a trusted and strong relationship with their families. Thought, prayers & thanks to you all.
Kayli, you are such an inspiration for so many young people who have or are going through this. Thank you for sharing your story, it means so much to so many people. Your parents are wonderful and you are very lucky to have such caring parents that not only support you but can share their experiences to help others that might not have parents like them. Keep up the strength Kayli, we love you!
makes me so sad, I never thought Kayli had a eating disorder but shes still perfectly perfect
My whole family thinks that my older sister has an eating disorder, but she always denies it. One time, I was home alone with her, and she passed out because she hadn't eaten anything that day. It's really hard to see my sister hurt herself and I don't know what to do because she doesn't want to talk to anyone about it. I've tried helping her but she doesn't seem to want to talk to anyone. It hurts my feelings because I feel like she feels she can't talk to me, and that she can't trust me. What should I do?
my opinion, just let her know she can talk to you. not necessarily about having an eating disorder, but anything. tell her face to face, or even leave her a little note that you've seen things, and you worry, and that you want to help and be there for her. if she feels comfortable enough, I'm sure shell reach out to you somehow. even if it is sending little notes back and forth to each other every day lol hope everything works out :)
just pray for her
without expecting her to say anything at all, tell her that you see that she's suffering and that she can talk to you about anything. I think she needs to know you're there for her without feeling pressured.
I know big sisters someday
Kayli...I commend you and your parents for being so open and honest with your emotions and experiences that led you all on a journey to where you are today. It takes an INCREDIBLY strong person to be so forthcoming with something so personal and you should be so proud of yourself! You are an inspiration!!!
You all are so amazing to do this. I admire each of your strengths to be willing to help others through your experiences. Keep going and know we love you. I'll be praying for you.
omg i've been watching your vlogs on casey's channel for a while now and i had no idea. I saw this pop up in my "suggested videos"
K i'm crying now.. D:
You are all ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL...So sweet. But not to forget as Christians God is the answer to EVERYTHING. PRAYER is the key my loves. The devil has a purpose in this world which is to steal, kill and destroy and he will find every way possible to accomplish them. But he can NEVER get to those that are strong in the Lord and have FAITH. You are a winner my love!! :) xxx
I love you for doing this Kayli. This is such a hard thing, and it's so unselfish of you to put yourself out there like this. You are such an example, and this is going to change people's lives. You radiate goodness, and I love you very much.
This is so brave of you to talk about Kayli! I commend you! Thank you!
My family didnt know and it made it harder.
Watching again 4 years later✌🏻️❤️
This is really inspirational, Kayli. Well done on your recovery and for being so open about your struggles, hopefully it'll help a lot of people going through similar things. And well done to Kayli's parents, it must have been really difficult to discuss but it's fantastic that you're so honest with each other.
Kayli you are such an inspiration. Although I have not personally suffered from an eating disorder I have had close friends who have. I feel that by you sharing your story and being so open and honest about your past you give people, with or without an eating disorder, the courage to share whatever problems or issues they have in their lives. You are definitely someone I look up to and have the utmost respect for you! From the bottom of my heart I thank you so much for sharing your story!!
Kali, you are perfect and beautiful. Man I wish you were my wife. Casey is so so lucky
*kayli
my mom yells at me...or goes watever u know wat ur doing...or just calls my anxiety around food stupid or me stupid....shes not suportive at all....ive dropped 20lbs while being away in college ..totaling 60 in 2.5 years ,,,im just afraid shes gonna yell at me when i go home

Your parents are so sweet! Thank you for spreading light on this subject. I have multiple friends who have suffered with eating disorders, included my mom. She has always been open with me about her journey. I hope and pray that your story encourages other to stand up and get a hold of their life back.
Thank you and your family so much for making this video. You guys are so amazing and so sweet. Thanks for the great advice and for sharing so much with us x!
Kayli you are so beautiful!!!!!!!
Brailee looks a lot like your dad!
wow kayli, this was big. thank you so much for putting yourselves out there to help others. i'm so glad you guys made it through and continue to keep strong!!!
Kayli, I know this video is a painful video for most to watch bc SO many people can relate to what you went through & also what your parents went through but watching this video I cannot help but notice the abundance of LOVE your parents have for you. I wish every one had the same support and love not just through every day but especially going through something as difficult as an eating disorder. SUCH INSPIRATION! Thank you Kayli, Sami, and Mark for sharing your most difficult times with us.
Her dad looks like he's 40
He must be older than that since Kayli already has her own children. My dad is 52 and I'm 16.
Wow! I am 10 and my dad is 62!
Im 10 my dad is 54
I'm 11 and my dad is 46 and my mum is 47
im 11 and my dad is 52
that's not true...not all parents listen. god knows how many times i've tried to talk to them but they just turn it against me everytime and even therapy, they humilliated her and told her to stop talking to me if not they would press charges and then lied to me about it telling me it was my fault that she ABANDONED me. so i don't have annyone and i'm sick of puking 5 times a day. i even think of ending my life sometimes because i'm done with everything. i wish my parents were just like yours :'( idk what to think right now
We are a kind of family too and you can always lean on us sweetie.
Don't worry about it. If you ever have any problems don't be scared to comment it to us, or DM a therapist on Instagram if you have one. The only thing that I can tell you is that you have too much to look forward to in your life ahead. Someday you will be able to be an amazing parent who is kind to their children and listens to them. You do not want to stop living just because things get rough. I have never met you in person, but I know that you are a beautiful creation of God, and He has a plan for you. God's path is made especially for you is not ready to stop its journey. You are loved, you are strong, and you are beautiful! Never lose the faith in your Heavenly Father. He loves more than you will ever know. Only let him make the decision on when you pass away. He has a plan that all of us need to trust. Right now I want you to look up the song called Trust in Jesus, by the band Third Day on UA-cam. Listen to the lyrics, believe in the lyrics, and know that you are perfect.
Very touching video. I went through the same disorder and we have so much in common. I'm glad you overcame this horrible disease. You're an inspiration, thank you.
Thanks for sharing this with us! Your parents are amazing! You are, too, Kayli! Sending you my love!
kayli's mom looks like her sister!
they were very young when they had her
Do her kids know that she has it
I'm guessing so, if not I bet they will find out when they are older (:
She had it
#webothhabethenamekiana
Thank you so much for this, Kayli. You and your parents are amazing to talk about this. So many people act like this is a dirty secret in their families and don't discuss it. Thank you for bringing it to light.
what wonderful parents. Kayli you have turned out to be a truly lovely person and i think the relationship you have with your parents is what every parent should inspire to have with their children. thank you for sharing x
There's smth really wrong with these Butler women. They're all hiding big secrets. ugh.
You are such an inspiration, all three of you. It's hard dealing with things you don't understand, but it's important that you try, that you find ways to get help.
I just want to say, this is so touching. Well done Kayli for sharing your story. You are so brave. I am so proud of you for doing what you've done. You've left me in tears.
i actually cried so much watching this
its so amazing that you three got on here and talked about the pain this caused you! Im sure this will help so many young girls and soooo many parents and friends watching someone go threw it
The love between them is precious and how kayli looks so much like her mother
This is so important to talk about. Thank you. I've never spoke to my mom about how my eating disorder affected her. Such a hard topic. Sending love to all of you xoxox
What an awesome video! Thank you and your parents for doing this.
Thank you so much for this video Kayli. These videos are helping so many people, including myself. Your parents are beautiful and so loving. I wish my parents were so loving and helpful through my addictions, but yours are very inspiring to me. Love you Kayli!!
Kayli this video was so amazing! Your such a strong person.
this is so amazing, thank you to all three of you for being so brave and sharing this. You are helping a lot of people.
You are so strong and you are so blessed
I love you and your so sweet !!! You are so amazing to share this !!!
Its amazing you guys were able to make a video for this & when i first saw your videos i would have never known you went through this! You seem very strong and happy
Thank you to your mother, for having the strength to carry on despite seeing her daughter suffer. Thank you to your father, for being so brave about expressing his feelings in this video. And most of all, thank you to you Kayli, for overcoming your disorder and having the courage to share your story with the world in order to help others, you are truly a beautiful person inside and out.
Very powerful Kayli. Appreciate your parents being so open. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing this personal thing with us, Kayli. You are helping so many people with these videos. You are so brave, amazing and beautiful. :)
I feel like you're so lucky to have parents who understand. I know they didn't at first, but they made the effort and after time were able to help you, instead of just dismissing it as overreacting. That's the biggest comment i ever get to anything, "you're just overreacting", and it makes it so much harder when people don't take you seriously. I love this video, hearing both sides of the story.
Bravo to your parents! I can only imagine how hard it was for them to have their child go thru this. They weren't sure what to do but they found the help you needed to get thru this. And, they were there for you, all the way. Lots of love in this family!
Wow, this is powerful stuff. Respect to all three of them for doing this. I'm sure it will prove helpful to people going through what they went through.
kaylie I know this is so late but I'm proud that ur not scared to talk about this it shows courage and I think that amazing and. I love u so much for that u r a insperation luv u
Kayli thank you so much for sharing this, and I thank the lord for your amazing, compationate, and caring parents. You resemble your mom a lot, both in looks and in the strength that both of you carry yourselves with
It's amazing that all three of you had the courage to talk about such a hard time your family went through. I know you're helping so many people out there by making this video, and that is so inspiring.
You are so brave for this, a lot of subjects that are hard are barely talked about, I thank you for this and appreciate that your parents came in to help tell the story. you are beautiful and i love you!
Wow! This was absolutely beautiful of you and your parents to share! This must have been so difficult but you all handled it so well and it will help so many people! x
Bravo!! It's nice to finally get to "meet" you, your mom and your dad. We are related. (I didn't have much to do with the family when younger due to a divorce.) This video hits home as to how important family is. It wasn't until I lost my family that I understood the importance of them. Glad you are doing much better, my dear! You truly come from an awesome family.
