curveappeal: ~155 lbs, US size 10 38-31-41 In high school I was an avid athlete, but after my first varsity cross country season ended around age 16, disordered eating habits in combination with changes in my hormones caused me to gain ~30 pounds. I felt so uncomfortable with my body for so many years, my weight fluctuating up and down as I continued to struggle with disordered eating, and it wasn’t until I saw a therapist that I realized that my all-or-nothing mentality when it came to my body was unhealthy and unsustainable. I realized I didn’t need to exercise so intensively it led me to injury, or lay in bed at night with a rumbling stomach because my meager dinner left me hungry. I threw out my scale, I stopped being so hard on myself, and I’ve NEVER been happier. I’ll never be the 120 pound girl I was when I was 15, but I’ve learned to love my “new” curvy body. I’m excited to wear a bikini on the beach for the first time in almost ten years! I’ve never felt stronger (emotionally or physically!). If anyone is struggling with disordered eating, I encourage you to see a therapist or counselor. It will change your life. hot body! -- source link
