Like many other teenage girls I battled with food and weight and still do sometimes. This is my story.

Ever since I was about 13 I was always going on diets because I was unhappy with my weight. I hated myself and thought I was fat but everyone told me I wasn't. I compared myself to other girls and always thought I was fatter than them. No boys were interested in me and I had really low self-esteem.
The obsession with weight and food got worse and worse and soon I was starving myself. I felt really tired all the time and cold. In 1999 my periods stopped. This is when I realised that I was doing something bad. I told my friend Emma and she really helped me to see that being thin wasn't everything and that I was worrying everyone I knew. It was a hard battle but if she hadn't helped me who knows how far it would have got? I tried really hard to beat the constant thoughts in my head about food, weight and calories and started to eat healthily again. My periods came back after 6 months.
Even now it is hard for me not to think about the calories I eat and I am too scared to weigh myself but I feel healthy.
