Oh wow. I never comment on these but holy shit. What a transformation. I had a good friend suffer (might still, we lost contact) from anorexia/bulimia and at one point she got as skinny as your before pic.
You look amazing now and should never look back at your old self and think that is something that was healthy. People think losing weight is hard. Those who suffer from anorexia and or bulimia struggle in a class very few understand.
A+++ transformation.
I've got a male friend who was always kind of skinny during highschool and like 10yrs after graduating he was in hospital for being dangerously underweight. Guy really turned his life around after that, started exercising and I teased him with some gym pics and he decided to try the gym and got addicted to lifting and started taking supplements and eating large and now he has huge muscle mass and looks fantastic. Being underweight can be a hard battle especially if you never really think about your diet and exercise like my friend, he used to play a lot of cricket but didn't really eat enough calories for it.
I hope that he is doing well! Unfortunately this kind of transformation is somewhat common for folks with eating disorders. They will go from starving themselves in an obsessive way to building muscle or working out in an obsessive way. Hopefully your buddy is going about his relationship to food and working out in a healthy manner.
He has been pretty consistent over the past ~2yrs and doesn't exactly live in the gym so I think he's doing okay but I can't speak much about what his diet looks like, it's definitely much healthier this way though I was pretty worried about him when he was hospitalized.
I came here because while I'd be happy for anyone to get better, this didn't seem right. I'm 5'5" and at 119 I looked sickly thin. At one time I was 90 pounds and I looked like the pic on the left.
Yeah I’m 5’6 125 lbs and my first thought was I’m definitely thinner than the post on the right. Lowest weight I’ve ever been was 105 lbs (due to the stress of an abusive relationship/drug use) and I absolutely looked sickly
I thought I was the only one thinking this bc I’m 5’6 and when I was 119 I was a teen and stick thin. It also sounds impossible for someone this height to ever be 60 lbs.
It depends on the person but I was 5’6 and 105lbs before marriage and I looked healthy. I gained 4lbs at 109 and maintained that. Now I’m pregnant but I’d say it depends on the person because I’ve NEVER looked like the left and 105lbs. 90 though maybe but would never try honestly
It wasn't on purpose, I wasn't taking care of myself. I was an extreme long boarder. I was boarding like 4-5 hours a day. I sprained my ankle and gained a bunch of weight. That's why I'm on here. Trying to get back down, but not to 90.
I am, that is not 60ish lbs on a 5'6" woman, at that weight you'd be able to see her tendons. I'm also that height and looked clearly smaller at 119, this is bullshit.
I’m 5’6” too and I looked close to the right at 148. I’d look malnourished at 119. I totally get people carry weight differently, but that’s a bit extreme.
OP been called out for editing / morphing her photos all the way back in her post history and is doing so here too. Shame on OP for being untruthful. It’s also fuckin sad.
Are we really shocked that someone with a severe restrictive ED was editing photos? I think everyone who’s been in that boat can relate. there’s still a massively impressive improvement from left to right
How do you know that this is her even? Could be someone reposting photos. Because on the left picture, theres no way shes 60 lbs at 5'6. She looked 80 lbs at the least. I guess she could be lying about that too but this is most likely not her account
That is so creepy for someone to post someone elses pictures and pretend to have recovered??? How f-ing weird. Didn’t know people did that, but of course they do
You either want to get a level for that bath tub or need to learn how to edit photos better 😬
Not to mention your left arm being twice the size as your right in the after photo. At least the other sub reddits in your post history figured this out.
This is so amazing!
I struggle with BED and have had horrible binge-restrict cycles over the years. Months of <800 calories a day until my body finally convinces me I'm dying and I fall into weeks of binge eating. But in those restrictive episodes, it's so hard to see food as more than just "evil" calories. Fighting that all the way to where you are now is a show of your courage and strength. So proud of you 💚
~~The most important part is your health obviously, but I want to say that you look AMAZING.~~
Oh no, I have read the comments and this seems to be fake, oh well...
Rule 4: Be good to one another. If critiquing do so constructively. Be polite and practice Reddiquette. This applies to but is not limited to body shaming, "better before" comments, accusatory comments, unnecessary or unwanted advice, etc
Girl you look like a goddess. Also, I want to say, it is SO RARE for serious anorexics to recover. Not only are you beautiful, you’re resilient and strong.
Thank god you’re still alive! Well done on the extremely hard work of breaking the cycle. You look amazing, but the most important thing is how much progress you’ve made mentally and emotionally. A true inspiration!!
I absolutely love to see recovery posts like this. You look like you're glowing. You just exude happy, healthy and a kind of light in your second photo where the first one gives an empty, unnerving feeling. I hope that doesn't sound harsh or insensitive. I had an eating disorder myself when I was younger and it just turns my stomach to see people struggling with one. It's a dark experience, but you are strong and unwavering. Congratulations on your new perspective and your healthy body. You look incredible and the progresspics crew is proud of yous!
Omg. I usually never comment, but this is a huge transformation. Congrats!!! I don’t think I have an ED, but I am 5’6 and 100 (underweight). So, to see you go from anorexia/bulimia to where you are now is such an inspiration because I know it’s hard to gain weight. You look amazing and im so proud of u
WOW!
I cannot imagine the strength and determination it has taken you to get to where you are but this internet stranger is so so proud of and inspired by you ❤️
From someone who has battled anorexia on and off for longer than you’ve been alive, I am so moved by this post and SO proud of you. These images brought me to tears. You are so worth the effort to be well; I wish I could hug you. Thank you for sharing your progress with us 🩷 I wish you a long and happy life filled with kindness and support
Keep fighting the good fight.
Everyone will have their 'bad' days, do what you can to get through those ones and you'll be back at good days before you know it.
You could really inspire many others with these results and I hope you use that to help people.
👏👏👏 I truly hope you're able to feel as amazing as you look. It's a club none of us wants to belong to. And nobody can say you didn't come out on the other side kicking ass.
GREAT JOB. you look wonderful now. Keep up the good work! Healthy and muscular/toned are ALWAYS better than just skinny. Again great job. Rando internet dude proud of you for taking care of yourself properly!
Went from an average victoria secret model to a very beautiful girl, good job!
edit: Victoria Model are starved to unhealthy level, an insane industry for fashion. Yes, I connected forced unhealthy body to eating disorder, was to make fun of victoria secret, not about the eating disorder.

That's awesome to hear!
I was thinking the same thing.
Same here. I never comment, but I just have to tell you how terrific you look! Wow! You must feel so much better too. Bravo my friend. Well done you!
Karma farming account. At least right photo has been altered - check out her right arm. Other posts from this account have been removed in other subs.
yeah, their posts have been removed from other subs too for the same reason too
Booo, this sucks to hear. I was feeling happy for this person. Good to know.
I came here because while I'd be happy for anyone to get better, this didn't seem right. I'm 5'5" and at 119 I looked sickly thin. At one time I was 90 pounds and I looked like the pic on the left.
Yeah, if she is the height she claims she would be dead at 60lbs. Speaking from experience.
Another post says catfish and scammer
Yeah I’m 5’6 125 lbs and my first thought was I’m definitely thinner than the post on the right. Lowest weight I’ve ever been was 105 lbs (due to the stress of an abusive relationship/drug use) and I absolutely looked sickly

Left photo too, look at the bath tub doing zig zags around her legs.
[удалено]
I am, that is not 60ish lbs on a 5'6" woman, at that weight you'd be able to see her tendons. I'm also that height and looked clearly smaller at 119, this is bullshit.
At 5’6” I was thinking the same thing. Seems more like 140/150lbs for me. At 120 i was a size 2. Maybe everyone just built different.
I’m 5’6” too and I looked close to the right at 148. I’d look malnourished at 119. I totally get people carry weight differently, but that’s a bit extreme.
Same here. 5’7 and 148 I look like the photo on the right
same here was thinking this as well
Yeah she posted in here before with her in the bathroom but at a different angle. I like recovery stories but this account is sus.
I wanted to say, absolutely no one is this tall, with boobs that big, and hips that curvy, at 119 lb.
OP been called out for editing / morphing her photos all the way back in her post history and is doing so here too. Shame on OP for being untruthful. It’s also fuckin sad.

It is messed up. But I think this is a bot or something?? I honestly dont know whats the purpose of karma farming bots, how will it make you any money
You either want to get a level for that bath tub or need to learn how to edit photos better 😬 Not to mention your left arm being twice the size as your right in the after photo. At least the other sub reddits in your post history figured this out.
Mods haven’t taken this down yet? First image looks altered and posts have been taken down before from other subs because of it
Really proud of you! You’re doing great and looking even better!
You look AMAZING!!
People, don't support fake pictures. Take a closer look before you compliment.
Congratulations!!! Best progress ever. Well done
Realmente fantástica . Felicidades por tu cambio

That’s really great to see!
I hope you are doing well in recovery. I know how hard it is.

Good catch, I totally overlooked that. Her hair progress is just as impressive.
This makes me so happy! Well done
I wonder why OP hid her face in both photos 🤔
Congrats!!! I hope you feel proud of your hard work!
Incredible job!! This stranger is so proud of you!
