Staying on Top I became anorexic at the age of 15. I thought if I was thin I would be beautiful, since all through school I was made fun of. I am 34 years old, and just recovering from it now. I have lost all of my teeth and I've had five stomach surgeries. I have been in and out of hospitals on a weekly basis. I thought to be thin meant to be loved to. I now know that true love comes from the inside, it doesn't start on the outside! I just got married. This is a daily battle that I have to really stay on top of. Someone I know just died because of anorexia and she had 3 children. She too was 34 years old. I feel obligated to share my story, even if it can possibly save one person!
