Hello to everyone!
I wanted to share my success story to you guys!
I am 6'2 tall and exactly 1 and half year ago anorexia hit me. It destroyed so much of my life but I didn't let it win! I reached 50 pounds. I've lost all my muscles and I wasn't able to walk up the stairs or just wake up from my bed in the morning..literally. I was slowly loosing my loved ones and my mind, it was the hardest time of my life. The once cheerful, always active and sporty girl seemed gone forever. I realized that no one else could help, but myself.
It took me more than a year but with the help of my family and this website I finally reached my usual weight and I am proud to say that I have never been as strong as I am today! I also discovered a new passion.. pole fitness! I highly recommend it to everyone that wants to build strenght and muscles! I am glad I discovered it and it really helped me.. I also found new friends and happiness there! Here is a pic I took yesterday! I am finally smiling again!

Hey tall girl! I'm just shy of 6'2" myself. Pole is HARD! I tried it last year but was too heavy/not strong enough to do it gracefully or well, but I still found it to be a really supportive environment and focused on being a strong woman not on size or shape. I'm glad you've found your "tribe"0
