EMILY FORMEA
"No one else thinks about you as much as you think they do and no one else is saying the things that you think they’re saying."
JAN PLEJE
"Your body is not the problem. You don’t have to be affected about what others say about you and you don’t have to depend how you live your life to what other people think about you."
MARCI WARHAFT
"Eating disorders are horrible things. We aren’t horrible people for battling them and that’s really important to know. It’s two separate things."
MICHELLE FROM NEDIC
"Be comfortable in your body, whatever your body type is, celebrate it, celebrate your natural size. Nourish your body, move your body, listen to your body, self-care, self-soothing, all that."
MICHELLE SCOTT
"Be gentle and compassionate with yourself because you only have one life. Do you want to look back on your deathbed and be like, ‘oh I wish I had been skinnier’ or ‘I wish I hadn’t eaten that birthday cake’?"
STEPH VELASQUEZ
"If you have a discomfort towards that number that you see, you have to throw the number out [...]Â Screw what anybody else has to say because at the end of the day, you are living for yourself."
