My (Success) Story

Believe me, I’m no stranger to dieting. Starting from the age of, oh, 9, I’d be hard-pressed to say whether I put more energy into white-knuckle deprivation or hating myself.

The combination of these two extremes sent me reeling for decades. I spent most of my life under the erroneous assumption that my size and my self-worth were tied together irrevocably. Then I woke up and realized that wasn’t true. And then I really began a magic carpet ride of a healing process.
