"5/5⭐️If you’re a plus size teen/young adult this one is definitely for you! I haven’t watched it in a while, but I really enjoyed this show a few years ago and it will always be close to my heart. I relate to the struggle with binge-eating and self deprecation, but I think it really allows you to see a larger woman fight through physical, mental, and emotional struggles to find herself. Highly recommend!"

"The main character felt very real and this deals with lots of serious/triggering topics."

"This show came out when I was 21.I wish it aired in my early teens. I could relate so much to Rae,it should be an essential show parents watch with their kids."

Kimberley

"I watched this over two days, I loved it. I wish I could’ve watched this much younger. I think it did pretty well at capturing what it’s like to have anxiety and low self esteem. I like that it ended on an uplifting note. There were some cringe moments so definitely accurate to adolescence. "
