is filled with funny videos of teenagers joking about their lives in quarantine or taking Jeff Bezos to the guillotine. But for many young women who use the app, there’s a darker side to TikTok filled with content that has plagued what feels like every social media site in the past: its pro-ana side.
Video trends like #whatIeatinaday showcase what healthy meals users are eating to lose weight but can quickly descend into posts about only drinking water for a day. And the videos have only gotten worse given people are shuttered inside during a pandemic.
I’m served a combination of videos glamorizing heavy calorie restriction or fasting, but also videos of people in eating disorder recovery or nutritionists debunking that information while stressing to viewers that eating 1,200 calories or less is absolutely not enough. Add in the fitness videos that proliferate TikTok and you can easily find yourself in a corner of the app that celebrates damaging ideas about body image, even if you never like any of these videos to begin with.
