I have been trying really hard to be healthy and get into shape the right way. However, people keep making comments about how they think I have an eating disorder. Did you ever have this issue and how did you handle it?

People can be such idiots, honestly. I’m sorry you have to put up with that when you’re trying to be healthy and they’re probably at Taco Bell every second day. I was dreadfully skinny as a teenager and so of course I was bullied about my figure, by girls and boys in fact. Because I was young I believed the taunts and handled it by seeing nutritionists, eating a lot of junk food, wearing two pairs of jeans at once, and so on. Once I reached about 17 I started to calm down and realise that my body was absolutely fine.
