Hello, everyone!

My name is Ellie, I'm 21 years old and I have been struggling with my body for a pretty long time. I have never been on the overweight side, but I hate my body type. I have been teased a lot when I was a child for being chubby and even when I lost my baby fat in my teens my butt was still on the big side, so the teasing didn't stop. At the age of 15 I developed an eating disorder, I basically stopped eating(I ate once a day, If I ate at all), I became stick thin, the beauty standard where I live is extremely thin body, small butt, small everything. I loved my body, but my health was pretty weak. Long story short I fainted and everyone I love started freaking out, I decided that slim body was not worth the suffering of my parents and I decided that I was not in a good place. I started eating again, I tried to stay healthy and I was somewhat satisfied with my weight. That was until I got in university. I gained 12 kg for 3 years which on my pear shaped body looks really bad. I was 62 kg back in January, now I'm 56. I'm 156 cm tall. I really want to maintain healthy weight and I'm trying to eat healthier than before and do a lot of walking. Seems working for me . Kisses to all I hope to become a healthier person and never go back to my old bad habits.

Wow! I just want to say good for you for seeing that what you were doing to your body was not healthy and making a change! I understand the not liking your body. I hate my body and everyone tells me I am crazy for not being happy with my body. I got picked on in school too and I think it stuck with me! I would love to add you and maybe we can motivate eachother to lose weight by being healthy!
