Content warning: This article discusses eating disorders and suicidal ideation. As I tried on item after item, nothing fit until I started trying the pants on in the "plus-size" section. Thinking back to my pediatric-centred rotations over the past few years, I've spoken to dozens of adolescent girls and boys with eating disorders.

Please contact your local crisis line or health-care authorities if you are struggling with suicidal thoughts or eating disorders.
