“Know that you are worth so much more than the value you place on your body. It's…” — Molly Tarlov

I used to be smaller than I am now, and it didn't make my life any easier. It's not really about your body. It's about what's going on inside, in your head and your heart.

Growing up, I looked to people who had the same issues as me and were still living great lives.

You have to understand that everybody has their own struggles, regardless of whether or not you can see it. Just surround yourself with the people who love you, and know that you're not alone.

Growing up, I had a ton of friends, and I had a great life, but people still made fun of me sometimes.
