00:04You show dresses on big girls,

00:24My name is Susanna, and I'm a fashion model.
00:26Formerly an athlete, I was asked by my agency
00:30to lose muscle mass by not eating and not exercising.

00:45I followed the advice and soon developed anorexia,
00:49followed by bulimia.
00:50I lost my period for three years.
00:53I had problems with teeth.
00:54My complexion was gray, my skin was dry.
00:58My hair started falling out.
00:59I wanted to work, and I wanted to fulfill
01:02what was asked from me.
