Logan shared her story with TODAY.is a lot of things to everybody. People want to stay thin or just be able to enjoy food or look nice in their clothes or compete. Fitness for me is so different.
I was a top athlete all through high school, but when I went to college, there was a rude awakening of having to work harder for the top spot. I gained a little weight and I developed an eating disorder,. I thought it would keep me thin. It was my own little secret that I controlled, but then eventually it just controlled me. It stayed with me for over 13 years.
I’m 5 feet, 10 inches tall with a healthy weight of about 155 pounds, but I got down to 115 pounds. I looked like a lollipop — someone with a really big head and a small body. Logan dropped to an unhealthy weight when she was struggling with an eating disorder, left. Today, she is in top shape.When I was binging, I would probably eat 20,000 calories at a time sometimes. I would go from Burger King to Taco Bell to McDonald’s all in within 30 minutes. It was a very self-destructive journey. It was terrible. I’m surprised I’m still alive. All my teeth are crowns now and I lost my gallbladder — it was totally impacted with stones — because of vomiting.
