Eating disorder pitch

The topic that I have chosen is eating disorders and I will be mainly talking about binge- eating. This topic grabbed my attention since many causes are happening around the world that are not being public on social media, it’s being silent, the effect it has is the large number of people currently struggling. Personally, it is seen that the population who are struggling with this disorder and are being ignorant when this topic approaches them. People who are struggling with binge-eating also including media how it affects them, online binge-eating is very frequently happening now days watching commercial and not wanting to eat but that when you start to want to eat and this is when binge-eating Strats affect you, but most people do not know that it is a disease most people think it’s normal. In my opinion, I have many people who binge-eat who are struggling but they do not notice it happening to them, the media influences them. This topic will be a message for the people around to understand the topic more.

The project that I have chosen is eating disorder but we are mainly focused on binge eating, why have I chosen this topic is because, since I went through something very similar in the past year I have learned a lot, and I became very confident and in power, after the experience, I had on losing weight and becoming healthy, what me and my partner Raz have done is we created an Instagram page how we post our daily activity and help other people get out of the problem, as everyone thinks that binge eating is not a problem, in fact the numbers that are rising every day and people can not stop eating, and after that, it will be too late the older you get the harder it is to change your lifestyle, this is why its recommended to change your lifestyle “NOW” while you have the ability, do not keep things for tomorrow and a  tomorrow will become an after tomorrow and an after tomorrow I think you know where this goes, it goes endlessly without a Stop. In our project we are trying to achieve a large audience, to help people to achieve their target goal and as well change their lifestyle, we are still trying to improve by working on the content and quality of our posts and we are as well trying to find better methods and also we are trying to spread the information that people need to make their journey a more enjoyable and especially a healthy one.

BCM114

My project for digital artifact was with a group member Raz Abbasloo , we decided to help people that are suffering or struggling with an eating disorder and help them to overcome and improve and send them to the right path and as well help them by flipping their lifestyle in the right direction. The reason that I have chosen this topic is that I have been going through an eating disorder under the category of binge eating for a very long time, and it changed me 360 degrees, I have become more positive my skincare changed big time, I became more active and many more other improvements, I want to be the person to change someone’s life like I have changed mine, I want for everyone to be motivated because I have become motivated. 

Our DA was spouse to be educational/ spiritual about the topic: eating disorder and as well help them get rid of their problems. I and Raz had many audiences, mostly on Instagram that have reacted was not what we intended and as well we got many comments, direct messages that they wanted to be more personal, and asked us if you could post more pictures, videos, and as well of what we would daily do like exercise eating routine, that just a description.

This book inspired me to make a change in my daily lifestyle, because of “Krissy Cella” I have changed my whole life, firstly was, following her only on Instagram, looking at her daily lifestyle what she eats, what does she do It was so breathtaking I was always thinking in my head how can I be that way? So I then decided to see if she had a book of her own, and she did then I was reading her book, it was more of a documentary which her story made me cry it a real story, I advise everyone to read it if you have the free time, because of my motivation and passion I have lost 40 kg in 8 months and I feel it is never too late to start changing your body.

We as well collaborated and discussed how we can make our DA, even better and based on what we gather together we have concluded that

1. To make it more personal and adding more people’s results and pictures and even videos so that we would have interactions with our audience.

2. Me and Raz as well wanted to be active on youtube that we didn’t have time to created topics and ideas, something interesting that the audience will love, but we will try to keep our Instagram going. 

3. We decided to make it more personal by using live images even including me, of the transformation, before and after.

We tried to make our Instagram more interesting for example adding highlights on our Instagram, that people can watch it whenever they would desire, and as well it looked organized, and we have received many feedbacks.

In our last blog we have mentioned that we would start posting more on our Instagram about our workout videos, and we have done that, and we after that received so many 

positive feedback, and as well our followers grew, and as well people messed directly about tips for their daily routine, asking what they should workout, it was very interesting and new creating plans for people daily workout , we want to continue with this project, our next idea is to start on creating daily recipes for morning, breakfast, dinner and snacks, that be made at home.

This DA was a huge experience that I individually have experienced, I will not forget what I have achieved, it as well made me realize how even social media can impact lots of people out there in the real world. As well the post can impact a person big time, as well it made me take a look at it from the outside and I have realized to myself how media can impact a person and how dangerous it can be as well, we are moving forward with our DA  we are learning and experiencing at the same time.

  1. BCM114: I completely agree with you about binge-eating; people rarely talk about it, and even if they did, they would only make YouTube videos about it. And, to be honest, I’m having a binge-eating problem right now. I’m practically eating all the time these days and I have no idea why, And when I get that feeling, it comes on abruptly.

  2. Sofia And Raz you are doing great work helping people out of this serious problem called eating disorder. I personally would be very interested in watching and reading content produced by you as even i being very research oriented person I lack the time and energy to go through extensive health websites to find good content on this topic. However i noticed you have made your video out of multiple photos and videos which i found to be other people’s content, clicked and owned by several individuals. It is very important for you to credit an individual or an entity for each photo and video that you use found online. Your content made from personal views, experience and digital creation may not need the same but for information you may aggregate from health sources and books would also require crediting them for their work and also for people to refer to it more extensively if interested.
    You could guide people to the right resources, professional help and even the right habits to avoid an eating disorder or overcome it. Another suggestion would be to Video yourself when talking about your experiences and views while also having digitally appealing content.
    Lastly, even though this already is a very hefty topic but you could attract more people by addressing or just providing information on general and other health issues as well. People are very conscious about health today and would love to be involved and interactive with general health habits and facts.
