Thank you I feel if I can express my journey it just might help someone, if they read here, I have no reason to lie about anything on the 25 March day of the op I weighed 20st 5lb and only 5ft I couldn’t walk going upstairs was killing me couldn’t breathe etc etcSo valid EVERYTHING you say Thank you for being so open about this subject, relating it also to your own health journey
I’m also passionate about the way SEVDA covers up her real image, as I have 2 daughters and I’m bringing them up to be happy with their image, to love the way they naturally are, whilst teaching them equally about looking after their bodies nutritionally & exercise….but all in balance! Hygiene too.
Sevda would be NO role model for them and I’m glad they don’t know her or watch her videos. If they were older, and joined TikTok and watched her videos, I’d get a hold of a few snapshots of Sevda at events to show them the REAL Sevda. There are enough people (colleagues and other creators) now who have seen her in real life and say she is much more heavier and rounder than she (filters) is on her videos. Plus that fact has got round! Also that her skin is NOT smooth and healthy looking.
She really didn’t think wisely on the fact she would be seen in real life, especially after her weight gaining over these last few years. The reason it’s quite shocking is because her content is known for her eating habits (feral) and what she consumes..lots of puddings, huge portion dinners, lots of takeaways, lots of white bread, lots of processed fatty meats, burgers, hotdogs, chips, big Costco cakes, and cake or trifle or other desserts for breakfast! Plus she likes her alcohol (weekdays as well as weekends), so much so, she’s known for not caring that she exposes herself as drunk on videos, even around her child. She thinks it’s cool, I’m sure! Like a teenager.
My issue is I actually DO NOT care that she eats the way she does and lays around videoing herself in her pyjamas on the sofa quite often (morning with coffee and at night with alcohol). That’s her body, her health, her hair, her skin….
….BUT what I DO care about is the way she portrays THROUGH FILTERING…that she is slim, smooth skin and that she keeps saying how she never stops to sit down! LIES, LIES, LIES.
She causes young girls/women to have shame about their body and turn to eating disorders. They’ll cotton on you cannot eat the way she does and stay slim …without purging the food back up. They won’t cotton on that it’s filters. Then other girls who are overweight and already feel shame, will realise Sevda must be using filters and they will only heap a whole lot more shame onto themselves. They will think filtering their own image to look like a plastic Barbie like Sevda did on this recent holiday to Tunisia….is the way forward to be accepted in society.
I knew a lot was my doing watching people shovel all that food down and stay slim I thought the same, I didn’t leave the house for 1.5 years well couldn’t as couldn’t walk drive etc, racking up more medical conditions
Had to face a lot of demons still do, but with help from family my nurse at my doctors etc I can and am doing that, since the op and changing everything about my life I weigh today as did it this morning as it’s 6mths post op I am 13st 2lb still a bit to go, food still can be a demon to me but I don’t buy processed chocolate crisps anymore I try to cook from scratch, prioritise protein even have protein collagen and skin collagen and take multivitamins everyday (for life)
But what she is doing is everything I agree in what you have said I don’t care what she shovels in her gob or drinks I care about how she shows herself to others
Her management shouldn’t encourage any of this at all in which I find they are as bad as her
I don’t care if she is a large person but again it’s she shows herself as a slim person when we all no she isn’t
