Success Story destroyed, and remade

Two and a half years ago I started my journey at 170lbs.
Over the course of those years I lost a whopping 80lbs.
I had begun to get underweight, down to 100lbs and to the point where my body crashed and I began binging.
I gained back 30 of those pounds. Under control and hopeless.
I still fight a daily battle, every single day.
I feel like itll never be as easy as it was before to lose it.
But I decided 7 months ago to start lifting.
Even though I am a lot heavier than the image on the left, at least the difference in the arms is apparent.
I guess pictures really are important so you can see yourself for what you really are.
