Default Going the Distance

My adolescent life was spent as a healthy yet chubby girl. I remember weighing 140 pounds in the 4th grade - I was about 5'0". I struggled to lose and maintain through my middle and high school years. My weight got up to 185 when I was 16, and then I balanced out at around 165 and 5'9" tall. When I was 19 I developed an eating disorder and lost down to 135 through hours of cardio and a starvation diet. When I turned 21 in 6/04 and fell in love with my boyfriend in 12/04, I ended up weighing 175 pounds in February of 2005 and wearing tight size 14 jeans. I took a little bit of that weight off, but completely dedicated myself to a healthy lifestyle in March 2007. Today, at 24, 5 years after suffering from disordered eating, I weigh 135 pounds, and wear a size 6 but now I eat plenty and know how to work out smarter and harder instead of longer.

Congratulations on your weight loss you look great and for recovering from an eating disorder which is another achievement in itself.

Well, congratulations! I can really relate to you - I too started out at 175, ended at 135, wear near the same size, and had eating disorders off and on for 5 years - isn't it nice when you can overcome that stuff and really start treating your body the way it should be treated?

You look absolutely fantastic.
