We looked up to the older kids \u2014 Keri Russell, Ryan Gosling, and Tony Lucca, who I thought was so handsome.

He repeatedly told me I looked fat and that I was going to have to do something about it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Feeling like you&#8217;re never good enough is a soul-crushing state of being for a child.
