Tess Holliday says other anorexics have accused her of 'lying' about her eating disorder because she isn't underweight and 'doesn't fit' the stereotype for the diagnosis
Tess, 35, told Good Morning America that she was recently diagnosed with anorexia by a psychologist in a candid interview that aired on Thursday
The plus-size model and body-positivity advocate said she's struggled with 'disordered eating' most of her life but actually thought she 'overate'
While Tess has received an outpouring of support, she said she has also had people with anorexia accuse her of 'lying' because she's not underweight
The mother of two believes it was 'hard and confusing' for people to hear her say she is anorexic when she's a plus-size model advocating for larger bodies
