Two years ago, she weighed only 29 kilograms, but an ordinary chocolate bar helped her cure anorexia
21-year-old Anna Windley, a resident of Britain, ate only one sandwich every five days, and at her age weighed 29 kilograms, she looked like a skeleton covered with skin and was afraid of food. Most likely, the girl simply would not have survived, but ordinary chocolate once saved her life.
Anna has always been a very active girl, while still a schoolgirl she went in for sports, was a participant in many events, and was an exemplary student. But despite such activity, she was plump from birth and often heard unpleasant phrases from her classmates about her weight. Tired of ridicule, Anna decided that she would lose weight.
She began to strictly limit herself in food — she almost did not eat meat, sweets, pastries, and dairy products, and her diet consisted of one sandwich only once every few days. Often because of this «diet», Anna ended up in the hospital, and she was diagnosed with «anorexia». Doctors began to warn the girl that at such a pace she would bring herself to a heart attack. And she understood everything, but she could not help herself.
“I just wanted to be thinner,” she says.
Anna brought herself to such a state that she could not even look at food, and any smell of food terrified her. When at some holiday they wanted to treat her to a pie, she could not bear it, the girl ran into another room, she wanted to do everything, just not to be near the food.
But one day everything changed, and ordinary chocolate contributed to this.
Once Anna wanted sweets, but already on a psychological level it seemed to her that she would eat a lot, but still decided to try sweets. Later, she got on the scales and realized that she had not gained anything, so she began to slowly allow herself goodies.
“It was crazy to think that from a piece of chocolate I would immediately gain weight,” says the Briton. “But it was after him that I realized that eating is not as scary as it seemed to me.”
This incident helped Anna get rid of one of her biggest fears, and she gradually switched to a normal diet.
Now the girl weighs 45 kilograms, she leads a healthy lifestyle, and recalls that period of her life with horror.
It took two years to return to normal weight. Now Anna is a beautiful girl with a beautiful figure.
