Story of Recovery

At the height of her eating disorder, Chloe Cook weighed just 70 pounds. When she collapsed and was rushed to the hospital, doctors told her she was days away from death and that even if she recovered, she would never be able to have children.
"Now, however, the 24-year-old is the proud mother of a little girl - and her second child is due next month... 'I know that they have helped me to beat anorexia once and for all. I have to stay healthy to be a mother to them and that keeps me strong and positive.'"
Chloe's battle began when she was 17 years old. She thought she appeared overweight in some holiday pictures and decided to lose a little weight. Though her desire to shed a few pounds spiraled into a full-blown eating disorder, she has managed to regain healthy control of her weight and her life. Source: Daily Mail
