STUDENTICA koju su u školi maltretirali jer je bila debela izgubila je gotovo 40 kilograma te postala fitness model.
Meghan Gilbert (21) iz Dallasa s trenutnom adresom u Kaliforniji, vaga je pokazivala 95 kilograma, nakon što je u ranoj dobi razvila poremećaj u prehrani koji je s godinama maltretiranja u školi izmaknuo kontroli. Opsesivno je jela i jednostavno nije mogla stati sve dok nije shvatila kako tužno izgleda na maturalnoj fotografiji. Bilo je to prije tri godine i tad je odlučila drastično promijeniti životni stil.
This video doesn't just show my physical change, but it shows my mental and emotional growth as well. I was so lost growing up.. I didn't realize that self love and respect was important. I would binge eat and party, filling my body with drugs and poison. Instead of turning to God, I turned to the world. I couldn't wear shorts or go to a dressing room at the mall without crying. Not because I was big but because I was lost and I hated everything about me... One week I was just tired of life, and took too many pills. I overdosed.. by the GRACE OF GOD I woke up and saw my foot tattoo "walk by faith not by sight." From that moment on I found God again, and when I found God I found LOVE!! When I started to love and respect myself, I started to eat healthy and work out. Then it just all hits.. you sweat out the toxins, so you become MENTALLY and physically stronger. You learn persistence. You learn consistency. I was lost and now I am found. Do not give up. It takes time and it also takes failure. When you fail, you get back up and try again. Rest. and try again. 😌 at the end of the video you'll see me getting washed clean of the Old Meghan, which was the best moment of my life. ❤️

Danas je fitness trenerica i model, no ponosno je noge i tijelo prvi put pokazala tek u odrasloj dobi, piše The Mirror.
Lifting is not about how I look. (And yes my posing is messed up, I have a roll over my shorts, and my legs show the chubby side.❤️) I do not workout to have a nice body. I lift because it makes me stronger. It gives me a challenge to be a stronger and better me every time I walk into the doors of the gym. Within every rep, im bettering myself. What I learn in the gym, I apply to my life. It's heavy and hurts, but the next time you do that lift, you'll be stronger and it will be easier. Your muscle has to hurt and tear in order to grow. And the same goes for your life. If times are hard, keep pushing and then things will get better, and the next time this situation comes along you'll be SO much more strong and able to handle it without as much stress. I body build because it not only helps my physical health, but my mental and spiritual health as well. Growing up, I didn't have this concept about that and it has been LIFE changing❤️

Meghan je bila pretilo dijete, a vjeruje kako je poremećaj razvila tijekom krstarenja s neograničenom količinom hrane. Dijagnosticirane su joj anksioznost i depresija. "Nisam imala samopouzdanja ni ljubavi za sebe pa bih samo jela i bila lijena. Nisam znala što učiniti, rijetko sam uopće napuštala kuću", govori.
HAPPY FOURTH❤️💙

"U početku bilo je teško, no znala sam da moram 'stisnuti zube', vjerovala sam kako nam izazovi pomažu da rastemo", rekla je.
Danas je daleko od dana, ali i osjećaja kad je plakala u svlačionici. Teži oko 60 kilograma. "Svoje noge vidim kao najjači adut i na njih sam ponosna. Sve počinje u mozgu, naučiti zavoljeti sebe potpuno mijenja mentalitet. Otkako sam u tome uspjela, mnogo sam sretnija sam i zdravija nego ikad", zaključuje.
The girl on the left was 200 lbs of depression, anxiety, and sin. I was addicted to drugs and I partied every night. I woke up in the morning wanting to forget that I had to wake up this morning.. my life was just..sad. I hated every part of my body and being until I took one too many pills and sipped one too many drinks, waking up after 36 hours of straight sleep. Well, could be longer. When I woke up from my overdose, I saw my tattoo "walk by faith not by sight" and that's when I knew I wasn't doing life right. The Bible PREACHES LOVE! That's Jesus's commandment. So that's where I started. I loved myself. I loved the gym. I loved the hardship. I loved the pain and soreness. I loved the people around me. And most of all, I loved God. When you first start to lift weights and someone pushes you to go harder, most the time you say no I can't do that much! But then you try, and you get one Rep out. You think you can't do it, but in reality you can. It hurts. You build muscle by tearing it down... Same thing goes in life. You gain strength through hardship. You will always have gloomy times in your life, and what matters most is your mindset. Saying no, I can't do it and not trying. Or saying yes, I can do it. I will try. I won't give up, no matter how hard it is or how much it hurts. I trust You, God. After the pain and trials, you end up stronger. I started at a 5lb dumbell, and now I'm lifting a 25lb. It hurt when I first lifted that 5.. so bad. But I kept on going. To 10. It hurt. To 15. It hurt. The same goes for life. Trials are like God's gym. Building you up to prepare for what is to come next. ❤️ 80 lbs downs plus a gained mindset of strength and endurance. Clean for 2 years and one month 😊😊😊😊😊🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
