What's your story? When did you learn that the way you related to food meant you had an eating disorder? How old were you? How did you find out?
Today I read a fabulous list of eating disorder education opportunities in Robyn Hussa's blog post:20+ Ideas for Re-Shaping Eating Disorder Programming in Schools and Universities. Robyn is a tireless advocate for eating disorder prevention through education and focuses on bringing information to schools. I wonder how your life and mine would have played out differently if, when we were children, we or the adults in our lives had had access to the information on obyn's list.

People living with troubling eating patterns are all individuals with different vulnerabilities and strengths. You may need to hear many voices speaking to healing and recovery before you hear the voice that touches you and awakens you to your eating disorder recovery path.
I'm happy to introduce you to the voice of Karen R. Koenig, LCSW, M.Ed. author of The Food and Feelings Workbook, who shares her thoughts about learning skills for recognizing and coping well with your emotions. It's my pleasure to welcome Karen as a guest author blogger on Eating Disorder Recovery for Women.

Writing Healing Your Hungry Heart could not leave me unchanged. Reviewing my own journey through bulimia to recovery, I hear in my mind the voices of women telling me their stories over the years. I see their faces.

Writing Healing Your Hungry Heart was an amazing journey for me.
For those of you who are not writers, please know that writing a book is not about sitting down and writing a book. Some of it is, of course. But much of is writing a few paragraphs and then questioning those words.
Is that true?
Is that a fair statement?
