I am a 30 year old woman who has struggled with anorexia for six years. I am in the process of getting healthier, and I would like to know how to change my body composition to make myself look more toned as I gain weight. Any suggestions?

So I’m suppose to write a body about body composition, but i do not understand what that is even though I have read articles about it. Can someone help me out with this to understand it better or give me some important info. that I should include in my essay.
