One of the best things about Demi Lovato, other than how kind and caring she is, is that she is ALWAYS open and honest about her struggles with eating disorders. She is never silent about how hard it is to control her own thoughts on her body image.

The world and young women are better because of this!

Here's what she said:

It wasn't too long ago that Katie Couric decided it was time to share her struggle with bulimia in an effort to help others.

The reveal shocked so many because it came out of nowhere!

She really first opened up about her problem when Demi Lovato was talking about her own battle with eating disorders as a guest on Katie's show last year.

Eating disorders are waaaaay too prevalent in our society, and shouldn't exist altogether.

They do exist, though, which means that there are those struggling out there who need help.

Demi wants to help — she wants you to know her story. So she went on Katie and told it (above) — and explained to the world how she suffered from bulimia.

Katie Couric had Demi Lovato on her show, Katie, recently where the beautiful X Factor judge opened up about her past with eating disorders and body image issues.

Then, Katie revealed a pretty shocking fact about herself… she too has suffered from an eating disorder, more specifically, bulimia.

She said:

"I wrestled with bulimia all through college and for two years after that. And I know this rigidity, this feeling that if you eat one thing that’s wrong, you’re full of self-loathing and then you punish yourself, whether it’s one cookie or a stick of gum that isn’t sugarless, that I would sometimes beat myself up for that."

What a painful and traumatic past.

Thankfully, she got over them and is now a healthier person. We hope that others can learn from her story.

This is absolutely ridiculous.

Take a look at the picture (above). Can you pick out the "fat" cheerleader?

You heard us. FitPerez.com is being told exclusively that the Denver Broncos apparently think one of these gorgeous women is fat!

The beautiful blonde on the left, Jenna Jaeger, was told by her coach that she's too fat.

An inside source told us:

"[Jenna was] told by the coach today she is too fat to cheer this weekend at the home broncos game and will not be allowed to dance til she loses weight."

That's awful! She is totally fit! What is wrong with some people?

This is why so many young girls have eating disorders… calling a beautiful, in shape woman "fat."

You're gorgeous, gurl, don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

P.S. Check out more pics of the "fat" cheerleader below. Ridiculous!

We think more kids might listen if the new spokesperson for D.A.R.E. was Jessica Biel… we're just spitballin' here, though!

Jessica Biel thinks drugs are stupid, and doesn't even want to be around them — even at parties!
