i just realized i am also an older millennial and my husband is a younger one hahahaha. oh god
You should have seen people's face when they were asking me about the diet I was on back in 2006 and I was answering "chemotherapy; I don't recommend". Wishing for an illness to lose weight is terrible.
Love the end…because I watch true crime and coco melon 😂 I very much relate
Not sure if I should feel lucky I was born in 1995. my biggest insecurity in high school was I didn’t have a butt like Nicki Minaj.
Are you kidding me Mean Girls aged incredibly well😂
i thought you were born in the 60s D:
What are all the movies listed?
omg the first 5 minutes of the video is just talking about nothing and then doing sponsorships and self promotion i cannot watch anymore
Real Video starts at 05:05
New game: take a shot every time she says "trigger"
Skip to 5:10 for the actual video haha
I recently rewatched full house and in the episode where DJ deals with disordered eating after she passes out after starving herself Becky tells her to just eat “healthy” and gives her diet tips to lose weight 💀
I feel like there are also a few things around this topic that don't always get mentioned. When teen girl books would mention body types, they'd still usually show thin versions of those, so anyone larger, felt that they had to be whatever image looked biggest regardless of their actual proportions, which those were meant to help with (like the idea of wearing less fitted tops if your hips are wider to make you look more balanced, which can help some people feel better). There also just wasn't any representation for anyone above a size 6 who wasn't just a joke or the one being bullied. I was on the slightly larger side of "normal" as a kid from around ages 8-10 until I started to get a lot taller, and buying "boys husky" pants for my school uniform felt odd (although I do prefer boys pants even now), and constantly being told by family and friends as well as the media, that I wasn't the right shape, really can hurt someone. You feel like your value is tied up in size and shape, so while I agree that teenagers shouldn't have to diet, society then, and to a lesser extent now, is set up in a way that if you don't, you end up in a much worse place emotionally. I've also been on the other side, where gluten intolerance set in as a teen (same thing happened to a cousin, and our grandmother was the same), and I couldn't eat a lot of what I liked, so I got very weak. Some people were jealous, but others spread rumours that I had an eating disorder, and that hurt too. It wasn't that I didn't want to eat, it was that I can't digest certain things, and before I was done with an elimination diet and supplement regime to help me recover, I didn't know how to eat. I had to re-learn everything I knew about cooking, textures, and what food can be. I've had some good support through that, but after being on both sides, being bullied for being too big, and too small, it has everything to do with how people are told they have to be, and how society is set up to favour certain bodies.
👏 I'm working on losing weight and last week my dad came up behind me, hugged me and said I was looking good, I'm losing weight and I look better now… Such a backhander…. It would have just been better to say something like 'good on ya Shan, you are losing some weight aren't you?'
I remember a scene from Heather's where Shannon needed Winona's finger to help her purge and they made a comment like Bulimia is so Junior High…. I can't believe how much these movies got away with….
Abby, I think you have misunderstood these movies. They do not promote disordered eating, they mock disordered eating. It is obviously satire.
Clueless was my absolute favorite. I can recite every single line of that movie still. I was also young, like around 8 too. I assumed everything she said was meant to be bullcrap because she is, like the title, "clueless" i guess that wasnt everyones assumption lol
That’s the thing when you look up your icon as an impressionable youth, you will copy
you just HAD to emphasize race huh?
Was it really necessary to add in the "White girl" part??? 🙄
I love your intro lol 😂❤
2:25 she just mentioned keto, vegan, and paleo diets in the ad when she’s supposedly anti-diet?
So 5 mins before you get to the point 😝
Hi Abbey! I’m not sure if you have Slimming World in Canada (it’s similar to weight watchers). I think that would be a really interesting diet for you to research because some of the principles are really messed up to me. Most mum’s in the U.K. seem to have tried it in their life and I do think it can be incredibly toxic by calling certain foods “syns” that you can only have so many a day. I’d love to hear your thoughts about it ❤
I am a mom in my 30s and also only watch true crime or cocomelon … so true! 😂
Did you just say Mean Girls is more recent than Scream Queens?
Sitting here eating crackers and cream cheese and ate the whole sleeve because this made me hungrier 😂
Btw- unrelated to this video but I use your BLW meatball recipe for my 10 month old girl all the time and always have a batch in my freezer (well, just used the last of a batch last night and need to make more 😁) I even fed them to my in laws when we realized we were out of meat sauce for spaghetti one night. So tasty!
