(Barré) #1
For a few years, family
and friends tried to
reach out and help me in
whatever way they knew
how, but finally I decided
to retrain my brain
and create a few short-
term goals. These goals
varied from daily calorie
intake to giving myself
positive affirmations,
and even researching
nutrition or exercise
facts or physiological
information that would
help myself work to
become better and
stronger. I wanted to
not only put this disease
in my past, but through
it, to become f itter and
healthier than I ever
thought possible. And I
did.
I now have more
willpower, more concern
for others who are in

such situations and, more
importantly, I now care
about and value my body
for the temple it truly is.
I have been able to reach
out to so many women
who have experienced
similar fights and I share
my knowledge and power
of will with them.

It is possible to take your
past and use it to better
your future. And you can
do this with no regrets.

Since my battle with
anorexia, I have added
more than 13 k ilos of
muscle to my frame. I
have a stronger body
and mind, and am lucky
enough to be able to
help others see that they
can do the same. My
passion for health has also
inspired me to
train to become
a nurse. My
determination
and passion
for health
has forever
changed my
life – and
hopefully
from sharing
my story, I
have been able to change
others’ lives.

WE HAVE ALSO CREATED OUR
OWN WEBSITE AND SOCIAL
MEDIA SITES TO MOTIVATE AND
ENCOURAGE OTHERS TO LIVE A
HEALTHY LIFESTYLE.
On our sites, we post daily workouts, nutrition
tips, motivational posts and recipes. Every day, we
motivate our followers to never give up and to fight
for their goals. What seem to be bitter trials are often
blessings in disguise.

I can safely say that
I would not be where
I am today – helping,
inspiring, teaching, and
cherishing my body
and health – WITHOUT
having overcome
such a disease.
