I've heard stories of girls who grow up happy and well adjusted... 00:00:10.010 - 00:00:13.555
...with a healthy relationship to food and their bodies. 00:00:14.932 - 00:00:18.602
Screw those bitches! 00:00:20.521 - 00:00:21.563
I went on my first diet at just eight years old. 00:00:23.524 - 00:00:26.652
For as long as I can remember, I've been hungry. 00:00:26.985 - 00:00:29.530
Insatiable, really. 00:00:30.072 - 00:00:31.365
I spent my entire adolescence hating my body, 00:00:31.907 - 00:00:34.743
the target of bullying and cruel jokes. 00:00:35.077 - 00:00:38.539
So, while my classmates were out losing their virginity, 00:00:38.664 - 00:00:42.709
I was at home, stuffing another hole, 00:00:42.960 - 00:00:45.295
binging my brains out 00:00:45.837 - 00:00:47.130
and watching every Drew Barrymore movie ever made. 00:00:47.214 - 00:00:50.676
With Nonnie, my only friend. 00:00:51.093 - 00:00:52.594
But if you're thinking of feeling bad for me, don't. 00:00:53.220 - 00:00:55.806
I know now. 00:00:56.306 - 00:00:57.224
All of those years I spent feeling miserable, 00:00:57.307 - 00:01:00.727
they made me who I am. 00:01:01.144 - 00:01:02.771
So I would be ready when I met Bob Armstrong. 00:01:02.938 - 00:01:05.774
- Hi, Bob. - He was my destiny. 00:01:06.024 - 00:01:09.570
I never much believed in destiny. 00:01:09.778 - 00:01:12.447
I was the master of my own fate. 00:01:12.531 - 00:01:15.617
