:00:53. > :00:59.a very insecure. appearance for years and it has made

:01:00. > :01:02.about looks, it is something I am extremely insecure about. I was an

:01:03. > :01:06.athlete, I was not trying to be a model, yet pretty much every single

:01:07. > :01:12.week on Twitter I get somebody commenting on the way I look. With

:01:13. > :01:19.me, to think being a size 12 or 14 is not attractive, sorry...

:01:20. > :01:23.It is not just celebrities who are affected by body image issues. A

:01:24. > :01:26.group of MPs released a report on this last year that found half of

:01:27. > :01:31.young girls be becoming overweight. A third of boys are dieting and

:01:32. > :01:36.girls as young as five are worried about the way they look and their

:01:37. > :01:39.size. Campaigners say it can affect our whole life. Our bodies are the

:01:40. > :01:43.things that we have to live our lives in, they are the only thing in

:01:44. > :01:48.our lives that we will ever truly own, so if we do not feel good about

:01:49. > :01:51.our bodies, that can affect our behaviour and the decisions that we

:01:52. > :01:56.make and the way that we talk to people. If I was going to speak to

:01:57. > :02:02.Rebecca, I would say you are a gold Olympic winning swimmer, and that

:02:03. > :02:17.means that your body is amazing. On the Newsround website...

:02:18. > :02:24.Next, it is two weeks after the Philippines was hit by one of the

:02:25. > :02:28.most powerful storms ever, up to 4 million people were forced to leave

:02:29. > :02:31.their homes at the Typhoon Haiyan battered the islands. A massive

:02:32. > :02:35.international operation is finally getting supplies to the most remote

:02:36. > :02:41.parts of the country. Leah sent a special report from the island of

:02:42. > :02:44.Cebu. This warehouse is central to the

:02:45. > :02:47.relief operation here, people are working throughout the night,

:02:48. > :02:50.backing up vital supplies which then gets sent off to places like

:02:51. > :02:57.Tacloban. Most are children or teenagers, and they

:02:58. > :03:02.are here to help those most in need. How important is

:03:03. > :03:07.are here to help those most in be part of this? It is important,

:03:08. > :03:11.because it is our family who were in this calamity, and we are not

:03:12. > :03:16.expecting that to happen, so I guess, in this little way, we can

:03:17. > :03:20.help them. How does it feel, knowing you have not been able to get in

:03:21. > :03:25.touch with your loved ones? We are so worried. I do not cry, because I

:03:26. > :03:32.want to be strong, because if I was to cry, I am sure all of us will

:03:33. > :03:36.maybe be sad like that. So I am just being strong. You are helping, and

:03:37. > :03:42.that must make you feel a bit better. Yes. This makes us feel

:03:43. > :03:46.better, because I know that this will also go to our families. It is

:03:47. > :03:51.not just rice that is being backed up, there are other vital supplies

:03:52. > :03:55.being sent out. Take a look at this, we have got tin cans here, all

:03:56. > :04:02.really important, sardines, meatloaf. These will be sent out to

:04:03. > :04:05.the truck just outside there and sent off to the areas most

:04:06. > :04:08.affected. The bleep operation as well and truly under way, but it

:04:09. > :04:13.will take time getting to everyone who needs it most.
