“I struggle with being short. Sometimes people treat me like a child. I really want to be treated as an adult, but people don’t treat me like that.

“I focus a lot on staying in shape because I want to be healthy. In 7th grade I was a lot bigger and people sometimes made fun of me for my weight so I wanted to change my lifestyle. When I was 12 my doctor tested for diabetes and that drove me to get healthier so I never have to deal with health problems. It also made me much happier being in better shape along with being more confident in my body. I started to go to the gym a lot and worked out and ate healthier.
