Ana was a middle-schooler. She studied at All Valley Middle School. She was 14 years old. Since she was 11, she was uncomfortable with her looks. Ana grew up overweight, she started trying radical and crazy diets at the age of 12. She was always tired, weak and moody. The poor middle-schooler was struggling a lot. She said to herself she didn’t deserve to eat the food she loved. It wasn’t true.

One day, she listened to a presentation about self-love and decided to open up, and talk about her feelings and problems with her closest friend, Eve. Eve supported Ana. Ana was giving baby steps. She improved her diet. She was now eating enough, enjoying life and telling herself. She was beautiful and important. With Eve’s help, she finally stopped overthinking and started living peacefully.

Now, Ana is a leader in a self-love organization to help people suffering with the same thing she suffered when she was young.
