Somewhere along the way, you declared war on your own body.

Maybe it started with a comment - a parent pinching your stomach, a classmate naming your size, a coach measuring your worth by your weight.

Know what I mean?Maybe it started in the mirror, in the gap between what you saw and what the magazine said you should see.

Maybe it started in the doctor's office, where your body was reduced to numbers - BMI, blood pressure, cholesterol - and the numbers were declared wrong, as if your body had failed an exam it never signed up for.
