The document details a student's experience with developing bulimia nervosa during their freshman year of high school. They began dieting but it was not fast enough, so a friend suggested making themselves vomit to lose weight quicker. They lost over 80 pounds that year but were still unhappy. During a church trip, verses from the Bible made them realize God saw their inherent worth and beauty. They sought help from friends, accepted God, and are now recovering through faith, support systems, and focusing on inner beauty rather than physical appearance.
