    Going for all the viral people lately! Not gonna lie, I love it and I admire you for fairly reviewing everyone regardless of how many or how few views they have💕 I feel like they need to be talked about most but aren’t (at least not in a serious manner) given their large platform/audience and the effect it can have ‘trolling’ or not. Love you Abbey!

  • XmasCactus says:

    Honestly I’m always really worried for the peoples health that do large mukbangs almost constantly

  • Robynne Paldi says:

    my favorite dietitian meets my favorite dumpster fire

  • Fire Flieer says:

    I love how brave you actually are for filming all these videos. I imagine it to be really difficult to deal with potentially triggered fans who will overthrow you with hate but you still continue to upload great educational, honest videos. Thank you!

  • earth star says:

    I just want to say, I get her eating situation. I practiced an extreme eating disorder for decades just on the opposite side of the spectrum. I dealt with being in treatment and “recovery” off and on for 20 years.

    In the last two years I finally feel like something changed and I was actually able break up with “Ann” what I chose to name my disorder voice in my head. I have consistently been in and out of treatment my whole adult life. Fact of the matter was it didn’t work until I was ready and I could be ready to actually go all the way and not just maintain.

    Binge eating is probably a bit harder to get better from because its not as respected as a disease and its associated with a lot of stigma if you have weight gain side effects from it. Heck, most people don’t acknowledge it as an eating disorder.

    I feel for all people struggling with binge eating because they will never get the compassion I did which helped me maintain and seek treatment until I was mentally able to do the last steps.

  • Midnight says:

    I’m really glad that you have started talking about overeating. Not because I don’t appreciate your takes on undereating individuals, they probably help me more, but because Nuance is everything, especially on the internet.

  • b says:

    Trisha is literally the definition of diet culture ! Her eating a
    habits are super unsustainable, unrealistic, and not healthy at all.

    • Emma says:

      Bc she has multiple EDS

    • Anonima says:

      It’s an eating disorder. You can’t control an eating disorder, unless you decide to face it, but it’s not easy, and it has psychological motives behind it. At least for me it’s triggered by obsessive thoughts, depression and anxiety in general. I’d say I have an axious relationship with food, the more I try to follow a diet, the more I succed, the more I feel the urge to destroy everything I’ve achieved, and I do it, not only eating everything I want, but feeling the need to eat even if I don’t want to. Basically it’s like I’m constantly sabotaging myself. I’ve been anorexic for a brief period of my life with some health issues related to it and since I’ve decided to leave my unhealthy habits I’ve fallen in more unhealthy habits, like binging.
      I’ve read that trisha has bpd. With bpd it’s enormously difficult to cope with extreme mood swings and negative thoughts, because you’re super impulsive, it’s very hard to control yourself. Not that you can’t get better, but it’s really hard and from what I see I think that she’s trying her best to follow an healthy lifestyle, even if it doesn’t seems like this.
      EDIT: Ok I’ve found out she has not bpd, but to me it seems like she has an eating disorder.

  • StephanieAlmighty says:

    I wish I saw this video when I was 15. Took me until 23 to realise that “kickstarting” my diet only leads to binging; jojo dieting and gaining more weight in the end, at least in my case. Your explanation just brings it all together now

  • brittbritt034 says:

    I’ve struggled with binge eating for years, your videos have been really helping me lately especially this one. Thank you

  • broompeople says:

    Oof. I used to watch her mukbangs when I was starving myself so I would feel better about not eating. Lol. Now she’s on the channel that’s actually helped me with my ED.

    • Abbey Sharp says:

      Oh no, I’m so sorry. I have an entire video about the mukbang trend on my channel if you’re interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2pYg76yi7I&t=196s&ab_channel=AbbeySharp

    • catri says:

      i still do this 🙁

    • Trinity Murray says:

      How? I feel like watching someone else eat would make it harder to not eat…Then again I guess watching someone eating gross amounts of food might have the opposite effect. Idk. I don’t think I have an ED. Although I have been “restricting” my calories so I can lose weight but not to an extreme…

    • Cher says:

      @Trinity Murray For me personally the way trisha ate grossed me out, so I’d watch her to trigger my ED into finding food gross. (No offense to Trish but the moaning and smacking sounds are awful) Meanwhile when I was recovering Stephanie Soo was one of my go to channels bc it felt like eating with a friend. She also always made the food look appealing which helped.

    • BlynaiPerPietus says:

      @Trinity Murray for me I used to feel like they’re eating for me and it’s just fun to watch other people getting all the calories and not you

  • Michelle Kilcoyne says:

    I hate the idea of “rewarding” yourself for restricting by eating. So many people eat in terms of rewards and punishment and it can destroy your relationship with food.

  • Hannah says:

    i was in a cycle of constant “last suppers” and “diets” and gained 20 lbs in one year. breaking free of that has been so helpful!

  • ContemplativeOne says:

    Abbey, thank you for handling ED topics so professionally by including experts in the field and presenting research where appropriate. So many influencers only speak to their experience with ED, weight loss, or whatever the issue, but it’s refreshing to see someone presenting an unbiased view.

  • Dani says:

    She’s pretty open about her eating disorder, binging and extreme restrictions.

    • Erin Kimberley says:

      Which is great for educating people. But if you only watched Trisha’s videos where she’s overeating and restricting, its glamorizing the disordered eating.

    • UnderCover Fangirl says:

      @Erin Kimberley Yeah, but that parts not her fault.

  • Coffin Rehearsal says:

    FINALLY a dietician who isn’t obsessed with diet culture, THANK YOU ❤️

  • Linda says:

    I feel binge disorder is a chemical imbalance and should be taken just as serious as any mental illness such as depression, panic attacks, social phobia and so much more. I do feel binge disorder is very serious and I feel her pain. It’s very sad, I don’t know much about her but I see pain,

    • Gemady Langfelder says:

      It is a mental health disorder in the DSM-V

    • Beraudmusic says:

      Thisss! So tired of people thinking it’s just people being lazy/not having self control. It’s literally a mental illness.

    • Gibbon Afferl says:

      It’s extremely dangerous too, especially if you’re already overweight or obese.

    • Rat kid says:

      Tbh, I kind of class anorexia, bulimia, bed + osfed involving a mix of those 3 as kind of one big ed. Especially when behaviours can be shared between disorders, it’s the mental aspect, and it’s common for people to shift from one ed to another, especially in recovery. I hate when people always neglect bed bc as someone dx w bulimia, when for me the binging aspect has ruined my life more than anything other aspects, even when I was starving.

  • JessF says:

    This was very educational & accurate! I suffered with anorexia for 3 years that turned into severe bulimia

  • Kat Petersdorf says:

    Your videos really help me stick with my ED recovery. Hearing how my past actions impact me, and your replacement suggestions are so helpful and your reminds help keep me from an anorexic relapse. Which is good because I’m only a couple years out of bulimia and only started gaining healthy weight the last two almost three. I was about 95lbs at 5ft 4in (heavier than at my worst) and the emotional recovery is. Far more. Difficult.

  • Andromeda says:

    When she eats junk food you can see the absolute bliss in her face and in her speech I have never seen someone more addicted. It’s like watching a baby drinking from a bottle

  • Kell says:

    Very thankful for you, Abbey! My therapist recommended you to me and now I put you on when I cook and it feels less intimidating/scary❤️
