having a better body will make my life better because it will help me "start fresh". I am nineteen years old and went through anorexia my whole high school career, and I still have relapses. I feel fat whenever I eat and then do not really eat anything if I don't work out. I have created a copulsion to exercise everyday. If I don't, then I fall into a depression and isolate myself so I won't eat.

A few weeks ago, I also had a pulmonary embolysim (A.K.A a blood clot in the lungs) so now I'm on blood thinners and unable play softball and soccer, my destressers besides working out, for at least until september.

having a better body will allow me to look at myself and say that there is something to say that i was able to accomplish despite my anorexia and blood clots.
