My Eating Disorder - My Parents Answer your Questions
My mom and dad were amazing enough to answer some questions you guys asked about what it was like for them when I was struggling with an eating disorder. They felt it was important to give some advice to you parents and loved ones of people suffering from this, and to share their experiences for this series. It was difficult for us to talk about, and I realized it was the first time we've really sat down to discuss our feelings around this. I'm so grateful that they were brave enough to do this with me. I love you mom and dad!! Thank you so much!! And thank you all for watching!! Please leave your comments and questions below. I love hearing from you guys!! Next week I meet Jonathan (my personal trainer) for the first time in NYC!!!

Ugh god, I hate when parents cry. Especially dads. The second her dad started to get choked up I started tearing up.
Slightly annoyed that a Victoria's Secret commercial was the ad for this video. You go Kayli. I struggle more with my body image now that I am older (22) than I did when I was in high school. I am thankful to have my fiancé by my side to tell me I am beautiful no matter what.

VS ew I’m sorry! I hope you’re doing better now x
this broke my heart I love her so much and it makes me so sad that she went through this and that so many people are affected by this. :(((
Can we just point out how pretty Kayli's mom is like OMG I see where kayli gets it from
When your dad said "We were kids raising kids," that really struck a cord with me. That reminded me of my parents. I don't have much family around, because we all grew up in a dysfunctional family. My parents basically did what their parents did--leave their children to totally fend for themselves. I just wish they would of given us a better life. Parents should make life better for future generations. I thought I should share something from me. Thank you for sharing something of yourself that isn't easy to speak about. This video has been very insightful for me.
this was very touching... very random comment. Her parents look SO YOUNG! Wow!

what a sincere contribution to a problem so devastating. So real to see the effects of this so many years later....they are still working on it. Thank you!
Kayli is just so beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm only just finding this video now but can I just say Kayli, you are so so brave for sharing your story and your experience with an eating disorder and your parents are also so brave for sharing their side of the story and how they dealt with Kayli's problem through this hard time. From this video, I could easily see how hard this was for all three of you. You are an inspiration and a true role model Kayli xxxx ❤️
Your honesty and courage in being so open about your story is admirable Kayli :) your an inspiration!
I struggled with a eating disorder when I was a teen. I ended up in an eating disorder clinic and being 5'10 and weighing 105 and 98 at my lightest. This video just touched my heart Kayli, Your beautiful inside and out! Thank you so much for sharing. ♥
I think when kayli thinks of her own children and puts herself in the shoes of her parents, she really feels the pain and hurt and thats partly why she is tearing up so much. GOD BLESS YOU BABE xxx
Thank you for sharing your story. There are resources for people who have eating disorders. When I was in high school I went to a support group called over eaters anonymous. It is not just for people who over eat but for those who have any eating disorder. It is a 12 step program just like AA. The people there are the nicest people who continue to struggle everyday. Support groups are such a huge help.
Kayli nobodys perfect, and that dosent mean that your still not beautiful everyone is.you dont have to worry about anyone judging you about your weight or how cute you are you are
I don't think i'm going to tell my family because I don't want to worry them, but from now on i'm really going to try and get better even if it will be hard.

I was depressed and did things I wasn't proud of. I never wanted my parents to know because I didn't want them to think of me as a problem. But, when they found out, they were nothing but supportive of me and helped me through everything. Parents will worry. It's apart of being a parent. But it's better to go through things with others rather than alone :) If you'd like to confide in someone and you really don't want to tell your parents, please know people do care and if you'd like, I'm willing to be one of them. :) Things will get better if you try to make them that way.

this is a really late reply, but I felt it is still important. if you haven't told your parents yet, or anyone else. please talk to someone, anyone. you should not have to deal with this all by yourself. you deserve to be healthy. if you need someone to talk to, just message me.

Of course it's going to worry them but that's just what's gonna need to be done! they will worry in the best way and may be your only way to help. its important you tell your parents, even if right now you don't think so in the long run you will be grateful that you at least where open with them. If they worry they are worried because they love you and they want to understand and not let it destroy you. It's not about I don't want them to worry it's about this is a serious situation, and you can get help and be happy again. You should be open with them anyway it's not just you, it's them too, and you can be better and live the best life. And that's because you can turn it around WITH your family by your side, it can only help
So proud of you Kayli for being brave and sharing your story with us. I myself struggled with bulimia as a teen and was also able to over come it. I'm so glad you were able to over come this disease because the world wouldn't get to see what an amazingly beautiful mother, wife, and person you truly are. Thank you for allowing us into your lives. You're such an inspiration to us all! God bless you and your family! Hugs to you all!
you are so strong for sharing this. hopefully this will help other people that are going through a similar situation.
Brailee looks so like her grandpa

Wow! I have so much more respect for you, Kayli. I never knew you suffered with this and I am sorry that you did but like your dad mentioned, the closeness/love of your family was the miracle you needed to improve. I am so glad that you had them. Having taught for the past 12 years, I know several students who have struggled with similar issues but weren't as fortunate. Thank you so much for sharing this heart-rending story.
This is such a brave thing you did Kayli, must of been the hardest video that you've ever made. I'm thankful that you shared this experience with KZread because you have helped so many people just by sharing this story with us, your such a inspiring women to me. xx
Kayli. This is my story right now. Thank you so much for sharing. You and your parents are so brave. Thank you.
You're extremely lucky. Your poor parents, can't imagine what they've gone through. They are amazing! Please love them and thank them for what they've done, they deserve it.
This video hit a spot in my heart. My sister has been struggling with an eating disorder for a couple of years now. There has been many ups and downs. Sometimes you don't know what to say or do, but just to be there for support and try to understand. By realizing there is a problem and wanting to seek outside help, things will get better--no immediate fix, but within time.
Crying right now this touched me and made me feel wanted bless u kayli💗❤️
I think Kayli is REALLY brave for sharing this! Even though a few people are hating. 😣
The love between them is precious and how kayli looks so much like her mother
Kayli, this video is so inspirational. You are very brave to post this. Youre beautiful💕 dont let anyone tell you otherwise
Kayli i love you so much. You inspire so many young girls.
Am I the only one that cried or almost cried through this video because I sure did.
Anyone noticed how instead of "you were" her parents say "you was" ;p
I feel like you're so lucky to have parents who understand. I know they didn't at first, but they made the effort and after time were able to help you, instead of just dismissing it as overreacting. That's the biggest comment i ever get to anything, "you're just overreacting", and it makes it so much harder when people don't take you seriously. I love this video, hearing both sides of the story.
your parents look soooooooooo young and you ladies are beautiful. this was very touching and also very intersting. thank u for sharing something so sensitive and difficult to talk about.
can't stop crying ..
i actually cried so much watching this
YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL KAYLI...you really are!!! You and your parents were so brave to do this much needed video. I wish you and your family nothing but the best.
I could not look at this i was about to start sobing :( Love u Kayli
makes me so sad, I never thought Kayli had a eating disorder but shes still perfectly perfect
I'm absolutely blown away by your family.This obviously can't be an easy topic to revist let alone sharing it with thousands of people. The fact that all 3 of you came together to rehash such intimate moments speaks volumes about your character. Your genuine and heartfelt story was remarkably told and gives hope to so many, not just in overcoming such a tragic events but that in building and maintaining a trusted and strong relationship with their families. Thought, prayers & thanks to you all.
Your parents are so sincere and understanding. I can't say thank you enough!
My whole family thinks that my older sister has an eating disorder, but she always denies it. One time, I was home alone with her, and she passed out because she hadn't eaten anything that day. It's really hard to see my sister hurt herself and I don't know what to do because she doesn't want to talk to anyone about it. I've tried helping her but she doesn't seem to want to talk to anyone. It hurts my feelings because I feel like she feels she can't talk to me, and that she can't trust me. What should I do?

my opinion, just let her know she can talk to you. not necessarily about having an eating disorder, but anything. tell her face to face, or even leave her a little note that you've seen things, and you worry, and that you want to help and be there for her. if she feels comfortable enough, I'm sure shell reach out to you somehow. even if it is sending little notes back and forth to each other every day lol hope everything works out :)

To think your family and you went through this much trouble breaks my heart and I thought in the beginning "oh well I want to lose weight why not do this" and I proceeded in watching the video and thought I would never ever do this and I think that your eating disorder helped you learn and I would also like to know at what age did you think of losing weight and when your eating disorder started, I give you props for getting though this. We love you sooo much Kayli
You are all ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL...So sweet. But not to forget as Christians God is the answer to EVERYTHING. PRAYER is the key my loves. The devil has a purpose in this world which is to steal, kill and destroy and he will find every way possible to accomplish them. But he can NEVER get to those that are strong in the Lord and have FAITH. You are a winner my love!! :) xxx
omg i've been watching your vlogs on casey's channel for a while now and i had no idea. I saw this pop up in my "suggested videos" K i'm crying now.. D:
Very touching video. I went through the same disorder and we have so much in common. I'm glad you overcame this horrible disease. You're an inspiration, thank you.
This video has helped me so so much on my views on how much my mental illnesses have affected my mum and how grateful I am she's stuck with me through all of this. Your parents did an amazing job of answering the questions and being completely honest, even though we can see how hard this was for them. You are all giving people hope that there is a way through this and you don't have to be alone. Thank you for giving me hope. Xox
I'm so glad your better now, keep on going strong.
Hey Kayli, you are so brave sharing this with your fans!
kayli, i suffer from an eating disorder that i didn't realise i had until i started antidepressants for depression and my eating habits got better and i started putting on weight again and i hated that. it's amazing how much the whole butler family has helped me through a lot of my depression and eating disorder, i wish i was able to meet them and thank them for the inspiration they have all given me; they are a truly amazing family x
I love how honest your family is....I have teenagers and it's important to keep talking about these issues...Thank you for sharing :)

Wow. Watching this side of you kayli so vulnerable and humbled down i just feel like you are the first person i can call my role model. As i write this i am tearing up because Watching all these videos you have and your husband has of you and your kids and noticing how your such an amazing mother and how strong and brave you are to be the best mom you can be is so admiring . Being able to follow you because of all your beauty videos but to come across this and see your bravery and strength and will to be so loving to your family and to is your viewers i think means everything to us all. I love you kayli thank you for your inspiration i am so proud to say you are my role model as a mom,wife and just simply human being trying to be their best . You will always be in my prayers remember and dont ever forget God has made you MORE THAN A CONQUEROR AND WHEN YOU WANT TO GO AHEAD DONT BE AFRAID BECAUSE GOD IS ALREADY AHEAD. ❤️❤️❤️
My eldest daughter who turned 7 years old in December, has recently been diagnosed with an eating disorder, it is absolutely heart breaking!! I found your video very difficult to watch and could not get to the end knowing that my daughter will suffer with this for the rest of her life! Good luck with your journey and god bless you.

I want to be a mom someday and be just like Kayli so I can be as patient and as caring as her! Thank you so much for talking about this!
hi Kayli. my sister is suffering with an eating disorder right now and she's really sick. watching her do this to herself is the hardest thing i've ever gone through, and i'm really scared. thank you for sharing this with us, and for bringing out your parents to share their side of the story. you are a strong and wonderful person

This video really spoke to me.I am not dealing with an eating disorder but with depression.Seeing how all parents go through this process..it helps me understand that parents put you through that process of "embarrassment" by going to therapists and doctors in order to help you.Thank you Kayli for sharing your story with us.It is truly inspiring.
Kayli you are so beautiful!!!!!!!
that's not true...not all parents listen. god knows how many times i've tried to talk to them but they just turn it against me everytime and even therapy, they humilliated her and told her to stop talking to me if not they would press charges and then lied to me about it telling me it was my fault that she ABANDONED me. so i don't have annyone and i'm sick of puking 5 times a day. i even think of ending my life sometimes because i'm done with everything. i wish my parents were just like yours :'( idk what to think right now

Don't worry about it. If you ever have any problems don't be scared to comment it to us, or DM a therapist on Instagram if you have one. The only thing that I can tell you is that you have too much to look forward to in your life ahead. Someday you will be able to be an amazing parent who is kind to their children and listens to them. You do not want to stop living just because things get rough. I have never met you in person, but I know that you are a beautiful creation of God, and He has a plan for you. God's path is made especially for you is not ready to stop its journey. You are loved, you are strong, and you are beautiful! Never lose the faith in your Heavenly Father. He loves more than you will ever know. Only let him make the decision on when you pass away. He has a plan that all of us need to trust. Right now I want you to look up the song called Trust in Jesus, by the band Third Day on KZread. Listen to the lyrics, believe in the lyrics, and know that you are perfect.
I’m here watching this series in 2018 after Kayli’s vlogmas video bringing this up. This is so touching to see this and your family involved. I’m sure you’ve helped a lot of people with these videos.
Kayli you are such an inspiration. Although I have not personally suffered from an eating disorder I have had close friends who have. I feel that by you sharing your story and being so open and honest about your past you give people, with or without an eating disorder, the courage to share whatever problems or issues they have in their lives. You are definitely someone I look up to and have the utmost respect for you! From the bottom of my heart I thank you so much for sharing your story!!

Your parents are wonderful and you are very lucky to have such caring parents that not only support you but can share their experiences to help others that might not have parents like them. Keep up the strength Kayli, we love you!
This was excellent, I am so impressed with your parents for their honesty. Especially when your Dad said that parents need to obtain counseling to be able to help their children better. I am so impressed with your desire to help others and your ability to share your feelings. Thank you again, you have helped me to put some things on perspective!
There's smth really wrong with these Butler women. They're all hiding big secrets. ugh.
I'm not new to your channel or caseys but I never knew about this I'm so happy for you now I'm literally crying
it's nice to see supportive and strong parents. I have always considered eating disorders, and my parents never taught us the dangers of it. The reason I say it is good to see how your parents raised you and reacted is because it would be nice to have parents like that. They like to poke fun, make rude comments and gestures, or even try to " control " my eating. Sometimes they even make jokes of how I should begin to make myself throw up. I'm sorry for the long rant, but I just want to let you
Your parents are amazing... I'm going through my eating disorder alone... my parents don't support or help me... watching this made me realize how important it is to find someone... be grateful for your amazing support system kayli... your really lucky..
Thank you to your mother, for having the strength to carry on despite seeing her daughter suffer. Thank you to your father, for being so brave about expressing his feelings in this video. And most of all, thank you to you Kayli, for overcoming your disorder and having the courage to share your story with the world in order to help others, you are truly a beautiful person inside and out.
I love you for doing this Kayli. This is such a hard thing, and it's so unselfish of you to put yourself out there like this. You are such an example, and this is going to change people's lives. You radiate goodness, and I love you very much.
Kayli...I commend you and your parents for being so open and honest with your emotions and experiences that led you all on a journey to where you are today. It takes an INCREDIBLY strong person to be so forthcoming with something so personal and you should be so proud of yourself! You are an inspiration!!!
Bravo to your parents! I can only imagine how hard it was for them to have their child go thru this. They weren't sure what to do but they found the help you needed to get thru this. And, they were there for you, all the way. Lots of love in this family!
Aww, Don't worry. Everything will be alright, theres still hope. It's not the end. Love yourself for who you are! You're special & so talented- No one wants to loose a person like you. Infact, the world needs people like you! I love you xox such an ispiration!
Last comment, I swear... I just want to say, thank you so much Kayli for doing this and sharing these things with us. I always thought you were someone so happy and pretty and put together and your life was just something that I admired so much, but hearing your story makes me realize you're just as real as I am; so that makes it so much easier and realistic to look up to you, and I thank you.
It's so nice to hear it from her dads point of view. Normally it's just something that is spoke about between mom and daughter. I know I would never talk to my dad about anything like that. And it's also lovely that they're so open about it because its going to help a lot of people who watch this. Thank you for sharing your story and thank you for getting better :) you're all amazing xo
I don't have a eating disorder, but listening to how much pain mentally your parents went through I think it's really brave of them to sit with you and talk about this issue.. Hats off to your parents who stood by you and I hope everyone is blessed with parents like yours because it truly is a blessing. well done I'm so proud of you god bless you xx
I've struggled with my body image since high school. I struggled and still struggle with Anorexia. It took a LONG time for me to realize what I was doing to my body wasn't right. I praise you for having the strength to share your story and you parents are the true strength and foundation to your recovery! You are so blessed!
Kayli you are such a wonderful inspiration. Thank you, sincerely, for not only sharing your story but for helping other girls who are struggling by doing so. You are beautiful inside and out and such a strong person. You are truly a role model and someone I admire. I hope you know that in making these KZread videos you are doing so much and reaching countless lives
I found your video after I was looking to see how family members cope when their dearest have ED. My little sister is 13 (almost 14) years old, and she has ED. It is kind of new to us, we are only on it since last May and we struggle so much... When you and your parents talked about how they noticed you have ED and how you tried to get their help and then regret it, it is just like that with my sister... She was hospitalized twice and just recently she told us (though I deeply suspected even before she said anything) that she has been "purging" too. She also didn't start her school year in our regional high school, but in a hospital in ED department, checking in at 8am and going home at 14-15pm. It's so hard that our lives are now all around her ED and how she must eat by the menu, and all the arguments and no sport allowed (because like you she did a lot of sport). She always think about Calories and weight and fat and how fat she is and gross (even though she is SO BEAUTIFUL!!!). All I want for her is to feel good about herself, and to be healthy and happy.. I am so scared she will not be able to recover from it and that she will never have a normal life, Im afraid she will sink into depression, I just constantly do things that I think will make her happy. I don't know how much my parents will be able to bear with it... It really drift them apart, they argue a lot about the method of treatment at home, how to react and work with her at home, what to allow and not allow, to be like a "cop" or to give her space a bit. I myself don't know how to cope with it... I just need some advice...
when Sami talks about how they'd been so focused on you & trying to get you better that they kind of ignored Gus and Tasha, it made me think of when my little brother was struggling with substance abuse when I was in high school, my older siblings were away at college. it dominated every conversation to the point where my bro stopped calling home, and nobody really realized the effect it was having on me, who was still at home. i think it kind of derailed my life and i never really dealt with it
its so amazing that you three got on here and talked about the pain this caused you! Im sure this will help so many young girls and soooo many parents and friends watching someone go threw it
Your parents are so sweet! Thank you for spreading light on this subject. I have multiple friends who have suffered with eating disorders, included my mom. She has always been open with me about her journey. I hope and pray that your story encourages other to stand up and get a hold of their life back.
Kayli, I'm so proud of you and your parents for coming out to the public and talking about how hard this is on the person who has the problem and the people who love them. I don't think you have to have had an eating disorder to benifit from this information. It could be some other addiction / problem. Thank you. Even if you only help one person it was worth every tear it took to make these videos.
I have gone through the same situation and I identified with a lot of you have said. I have to say that what clicked in my head that forced me to make a change was the fact that all of my family was very worried about me and constantly reminded me that if i continued to do the things i was doing I would eventually die. To this day, about 4 years later i still struggle with food and weight every day and still spend more time than i should thinking about it.
Thank you so much for this, Kayli. You and your parents are amazing to talk about this. So many people act like this is a dirty secret in their families and don't discuss it. Thank you for bringing it to light.
I have a friend who battles with anorexia, and i really appreciated you uploading this video. I feel like it gave me a lot of perspective on what my friend and her family are going through.
Kayli, I’d like to hear from your parents about how they kept their relationship together through this. Especially the difficulty of a blaring, devastating issue and not having the strength to discuss it together sometimes. How did they work through all of that to where they are now?
Wow, I cannot believe there are that many people sharing the same eating disorder here alone. I know I can't do or change anything but just want to let you all know that everyone is beautiful no matter what they look like. We all have something special to offer and love to give or receive so please take care, we are here for a reason.
I wouldn't say I had an eating disorder but I struggled a few years ago when I was 11 and 12 with my weight. I stopped eating snacks and desert, and sometimes I would throw away my lunch at school. There had been times when I wouldn't eat much for a few days and I used to think that I needed to constantly exercise. My mom made appointments with a nutritionist for me after I had my physical and my doctor told me that I was underweight. My eating habits changed after I started going the nutritionist and my mom really helped to enforce the suggestions that the nutritionist made and just by being there for me and by encouraging me.
I just want to say, this is so touching. Well done Kayli for sharing your story. You are so brave. I am so proud of you for doing what you've done. You've left me in tears.
Thank you so much for sharing this, Kayli. I, too, had and ED from 10-22 and only around 20 did people start caring enough to ask anything, and by then I was too skinny, my skin was turning green, my hair was falling out.. and my whole family turned on me. They got mad, too, but never tried to help, they just made me feel worse about myself. I still haven't recovered completely, getting pregnant (how I don't know) is what saved my life. I'm glad you are better, too. God bless you & your family!
Who would ever dislike this, this woman is trying to help people who are going thru this same problem, she's just trying to share her experience. What is wrong with people?
