Social Media Star Shares Inspiring Two-Year Battle and Triumph Over Eating Disorder

A recent social media post by user Hekla, known as @itshekla, has garnered significant attention, illustrating a powerful two-year journey of recovery from an eating disorder. The video, uploaded on March 7, 2025, contrasts footage from December 2022 with December 2024, showing a remarkable physical and mental transformation. In 2022, Hekla appears visibly underweight while performing a weightlifting exercise. Fast forward to 2024, she is seen confidently executing a heavy deadlift, demonstrating increased strength and a healthier physique. The accompanying description, written in Icelandic, emphasizes the profound importance of a healthy relationship with food and oneself, stating it is 'much more valuable than chasing appearance.' Hekla shares a message of hope, asserting that recovery is possible: 'If I could do it, you can too. Nutrition is now my best friend.' The video has resonated with many, accumulating over 19,400 views and 315 likes, highlighting a personal yet universally relatable struggle and triumph.
