When I was a girl I was called small and chubby. The comments, that I would always only listen, became louder in puberty, when I heard them for the first time. They started to ask me in school, why I was depressed and if I was anorexic. Yes, they were right. I only have to add compulsive overeating. Five years have passed since that time. In my mind I still process my meals by caloricity, I still have mind swings and I am still not confident. But I am finally ready to let myself go since I am simply exhausted from all the stress eating is causing to me. I am all women on their way to recovery.

Recovery from eating disorders is full of new starts and strong motivation that sometimes starts to fade while gaining a few pounds. It is the point when you should not give up. Show you can kick ass!
