A Scottish woman with an abnormally low weight showed her photos and shocked netizens with her thinness. Her story is published by The Sun.
Ellie Spofforth, 18, told reporters that she began to worry about being overweight in elementary school, where she was bullied by other students. In this regard, she began to monitor her diet more closely. “It all ended with the fact that I started to eat once a day,” the girl admitted.
According to the heroine of the material, the older she got, the more unhealthy habits she had. So, for example, secretly from her parents, Spoffort began to induce vomiting after each meal and walk at least 30 thousand steps a day.
The Scottish woman managed to hide her weight loss from family and friends: she wore baggy clothes, and at the weigh-in at the hospital, she wore ankle weights and a special vest so that doctors did not notice her low weight. However, in the end, doctors diagnosed her with anorexia and depression and sent her to the clinic for a year of compulsory treatment.
During his stay in the hospital, Spofort’s condition worsened. “I developed new deviations, I started to hurt myself physically and bang my head against the wall,” she explained. In addition, the girl said that she was placed on a two-month bed rest, after which she had to move in a wheelchair due to weakness.
According to the material, the patient felt worse after discharge. She began to lose hair and her weight continued to decline. The girl hid her condition from loved ones, but when the scales showed 25 kilograms when weighing, the Scot decided to confess everything to her mother in a letter.
As a result, Spoffort was again admitted to the hospital for a year, and then transferred to another department of the clinic, where she continued her treatment. Now Spoffort lives with his parents and feels better. She managed to gain about 20 kilograms. “Happiness is starting to return to me,” she concluded.
Earlier in November, the guy gained weight and delighted netizens. User with the nickname Donorito shared photos before and after defeating an eating disorder, explaining that he managed to put on 20 kilograms.
