When I Started:
Jun, 2007
How I Started:
I had struggled with an eating disorder for 14 years. I had relapsed again, was at a really low weight, and knew I couldn't continue the way I was going. I reluctantly picked up a set of dumbells for the first time, then quickly became hooked. I'm up 20 lbs and actually have a better body image than I ever have.
Why I Love It:
Huge improvement in self-esteem and much less rigid with food intake.
How I Stay Motivated:
BB Accomplishments:
Forum Signature:
Moving up from skinny to fit---and I've gained 20 lbs in the process. Most importantly, I'm actually okay with that :).
Lauren, you inspire me ABOVE and BEYOND! You have NO idea...thanks for the compliment; it touches me deeply. I hope to catch-up this weekend if your schedule permits. I miss you! Sending my best wishes, strength, and utmost love~
