Hello, my name is Samantha. I’m 21 years old and for as long as i could remember I was insecure about my my body. I thought because i was chubby i had no self worth.  Ever since I was a child, even when I was thin, I had people mocking me and pointing out things about my body that I never realized were problematic. so at a young age I hid my body. I hid from the spotlight.  I was a recluse.  Always getting made fun of for something. and i was sick of it. Last year (2011) I was at my biggest, I reached 200 lbs. I saw a picture of my self that a friend had taken and i thought…..” HOW… how did i let it get this bad?”  so I joined a gym and started eating right and before i knew it I was losing weight. I wanted to stay healthy, but i wasn’t losing weight fast enough. Everyone else around me was so beautiful and i was a lump. I couldn’t see myself looking good, especially with the media, That’s a silent killer. I decided to only eat one meal a day  and not very much at that meal. I only drank water, and iced tea if people were around. People started making jokes about me having an eating disorder and i would laugh with them. I realized this IS an eating disorder, it might not be as severe as anorexia or bulimia, but non-the less it is one. after losing 30 lbs like that I  stopped. I looked at my self and said “Stop. you’re getting ridiculous, and people are noticing, you’re friends are getting worried. remember, you wanted to do this the healthy way….so do it right or you’ll never be truly happy with yourself.” So on that note i’ve been working out and eating right and i lost 10 more pounds and i’m at 160. I’m starting to really like my body. i have these curves that I never knew existed and everything is finally looking proportionate, and I feel healthy. I’m not pleased with my self completely yet, but i am working on it.  I just want to let everyone out there know that starving yourself or even eating one small meal a day is harmful to your body and harmful to your mind.  Don’t do it, even if you think “it’s the only way!!!” it’s not. trust me.
