Fitness has been part of her life for several years and has helped her get through some testing periods of health.
And Ru, who is able to squat, bench and deadlift more than two, three or four times her 56kg body weight, respectively, reflected on her incredible journey in an emotional Instagram post.
Along with a side-by-side image of her years-long body transformation, she wrote: “Left is before the ED got bad and my hair started falling out in clumps as I lost even more weight and cruised at a bodyweight of around 76lbs (34kg).
“Your reminder that our bodies are not a trend.
“We’re not meant to look the same at our ‘happy weight’, where we are healthy and functioning well.
“So while some people can properly nourish their bodies and, with genetics, have a predisposition to stay incredibly lean.
“It may take an extreme, unsustainable diet for another.
“Lean doesn’t constitute beautiful. And neither does a grumpy attitude from being hungry 24/7.
