“Not only have I been mourning my child, I have recently found out my fertility has been affected by growing up with a severe eating disorder. I recommend to really think about what you’re doing to yourself because I may never be able to have a full term pregnancy or have a child of my own due to the way I treated my body.” she wrote.
