As a health writer I get many questions about
many conditions but nothing has touched me more
than all the questions about eating disorders.
It didn't hit home for me until this last year a
friend of my wife's admitted she had an eating
disorder.
We've known her since junior high but it wasn't
until after she left college the problem
developed. We kept in touch but I noticed she
was always on the petite side of sizes as we
would see her maybe once a year. It turns out
she has what is known as "exercise bulimia".
Basically she has always been praised for being
thin and she counts calories. She knows exactly
how much she needs to exercise in order to burn
off the calories she consumes in order not to
gain weight.
During a recent stay with us she would exercise 2
hours after a meal and she is rail thin, her
doctors have ordered her not to lose any more
weight not even a pound as her organs will start
to shut down. I didn't realize how dangerous and
eating disorder could be and how hard it is to
get the help you need to change.
I put together a new site that is designed to be
an Eating Disorders Information Portal where you
can get the latest articles and the various
eating disorders, as well as the latest news on
eating disorders and references to e-books and
regular books to help people dealing with eating
disorders. It is truly an information portal for
anyone dealing with and eating disorder
personally or friends and family helping a loved
one with an eating disorder.
Eating disorders truly are a matter of life or
death, please use this site to help yourself or a
loved one to get the help they need…. It's a
matter of life or death visit now.
