Chances are you know SOMEBODY who has an eating disorder or poor body confidence. So many in our society struggle with their body image and engage in unhealthy dieting behaviors that can lead to eating disorders. Eating disorders do not discriminate: young and old, all genders, economic classes and races are impacted. Over one-half of teenage girls and nearly one-third of teenage boys use unhealthy weight control behaviors AND eating disorders continue to have one of the highest mortality rates of any mental illness.
MEDA, the Multi-service Eating Disorders Association, is hosting a virtual breakfast. I am looking forward to sharing my story and inspiring others. I hope you can join me.
