For most of us we watch everything we eat and put our hours in at the gym and pray for the numbers to drop on the dreaded scale.

On the flip side of the coin the struggle is also real in the quest to put on weight.

For most of my life I have battled with my weight and used to most defiantly fall into the category of living to eat as opposed to eating to live. 

I love food no question about it. An oven warm loaf of bread or fresh pasta excites me to no end. I have however had my lifestyle flipped onto its head and shown the light. 

25kgs down from my heaviest and still on the mission daily. 

Every meal is something I need to watch and also finding an hour a day to work out. Every day we grapple with our own issues and for Rachael the urge to survive is real. 

I think the message here is you have to face your demons head on before it's too late. 

It's so sad to see a once magnificent happy women now an empty shell begging for the support of strangers to keep her alive. 

If you at a war daily find someone you can talk to, start the process to your freedom. It's not going to be easy but you can't change what you don't acknowledge.

Love always x
