21-year-old Anna Windley, a resident of Britain, ate only one sandwich every five days, and at her age weighed 29 kilograms, she looked like a skeleton covered with skin and was terribly afraid of food.
Most likely, the girl would not have survived so easily, but her life was once saved by ordinary chocolate.
Anna has always been a very active girl, while still a schoolgirl, she played sports, was a participant in many events, and an exemplary student.
Despite such activity, she was plump from birth and often heard unpleasant phrases from her classmates about her weight.
Tired of the ridicule, Anna decided that she would lose weight.
She began to strictly limit herself in food — she hardly ate meat, sweets, pastries and dairy products, her diet consisted of one sandwich only once every few days.
Often because of this “diet” Anna was hospitalized, and she was diagnosed with anorexia.
Doctors began to warn the girl that at this rate she would bring herself to a heart attack.
And she understood everything, but she couldn’t help herself.
“I just wanted to be thinner,” she says.
Anna had brought herself to such a state that she could not even look at the food, and any smells of food caused her horror.
When at some holiday they wanted to treat her to a pie, she couldn’t stand it, the girl ran into another room, she wanted to do everything just not to be near the food.
But one day everything changed, and ordinary chocolate contributed to this.
One day Anna wanted candy, but already on a psychological level it seemed to her that she would eat a lot, however, still decided to try sweets.
Later, she got on the scales and realized that she had not gained anything, so she began to slowly allow herself goodies.
“It was crazy to think that from a piece of chocolate I would immediately gain weight,” says the Briton.
“But it was after it that I realized that eating wasn’t as scary as I thought.”
This incident helped Anna to get rid of one of her biggest fears, and she gradually switched to a normal diet.
Now the girl already weighs 45 kilograms, she leads a healthy lifestyle and remembers that period of life with horror.
It took two years to get back to normal weight. Now Anna is a beautiful girl with a beautiful figure.
She studies, works, participates in running competitions and she has a young man.
Anna no longer wants to remember herself at that weight.
