I constantly compared my figure to those of other women. Needless to say, the weight fell off me.
I became reclusive, only meeting friends for a cup of black coffee occasionally, never a meal. Even my dance teacher took me aside and suggested I should eat more.
Then, while flying to visit my family in California in January , I felt delirious with hunger and asked for tomato juice. When I saw the can contained 50 calories, I asked to swap it for a Diet Coke.

It took me forever to enjoy breakfast, instead of just drinking black coffee. My new diet was organic and similar to the Paleo method.
It took about three years to achieve a healthy weight. I continued my studies and graduated in , a year earlier than my cohorts.
Rozlyn took me to my first proper yoga class the day after I confided in her. The calm soothed my mind, and I learned to listen to the nobility of my body.
