What would you do to achieve your “ideal figure”? What lengths are you willing to go to just to hit some number on a weighing scale? In this episode of the Screwed Up Moments podcast, we deal with the topics of body image issues and eating disorders with the remarkable story of Cheryl Tay.
While Cheryl leads a vibrant life today donning the various roles of blogger, photographer, fitness enthusiast, motoring journalist, and much more, it belies a dark and difficult past. One that includes everything from bullying, to insecurity, to body image issues, and eventually, to over a decade of eating disorders.
