When I was 20 I starved myself. Today I'm planning 8 small meals with high calories, fat, and protein to help my 8-yo who was on a ventilator gain weight. Every day as the weight comes on he grows stronger, happier, more alive.
Perspective is a slap of cold water.
@ItalyMFA Ciao. Sto provando a creare un account su Prenotami da diversi giorni e continuo a ricevere un messaggio di errore. Puoi farci sapere se il sito sta riscontrando problemi? Grazie.
Looking to save on holiday cards? @ConsumerReports rated ten popular holiday card services based on cost, convenience, customization options, and photo and paper quality. @scrippsnews https://t.co/aaP640jtLG
@lisacfogarty@ConsumerReports This report is SO IMPORTANT! Parents have no idea. I’ve been a pp doula for 35 yrs & they haven’t believed me. Also, they do not understood the important of just boiled water to kill bacteria in powdered formula. CR is the only one calling these things out! Thx!!
@USCPSC Are these machines effective at dispensing formula, where accuracy is critical for babies to receive adequate nutrition? We assessed 3 models—two from the popular Baby Brezza brand and one from Baby Exo—to find out: https://t.co/je0KUqKcJ3
@EdOfftopic68292@AnorexiaMyths I feel like you are missing my point. I'm not in favor of censoring subjects. But there is a very limited amount of research funding as it is, which I'm sure you know. Anyway, best to you. We are both obviously on the side of finding solutions, though we may disagree on methods.
@EdOfftopic68292@AnorexiaMyths My point is that the social influences on eating disorders are well established. Parents, mothers especially, who lack boundaries, for example, has been part of this conversation for decades. How about we actually move forward and progress in our knowledge of ED's.
My 12-yo daughter and I just finished the series "A Small Light." If you haven't watched it, run to your TV. It is such a satisfyingly complete series.
I had the honor of interviewing Mallary for an episode of our podcast The Hunger Trap Podcast. Her much-needed book will (among other things) touch on the elusive in-between place that so many of us know exists between Anorexia and Anorexia full recovery.
I've known this for a few months but haven't been able to share it until now: I got a book deal from @_SimonElement, a @SimonBooks imprint! Grateful for my amazing editor @leahrmiller, as well as @mad2034, the best agent I could ask for.
The 3 stages of being rejected as a writer:
1. I feel like a loser
2. No, THEY'RE the losers.
3. They're absolutely right, this could be so much better.
Only a handful of occupations/hobbies involve near-constant rejection. If you keep brushing yourself off, that's a power.
@MeganAronson I got mine this year too! I can't believe what I've been missing out on all along. Congrats to you --can you believe what water dripping from the shower sounds like??
When my son had necrotized pneumonia nurses pulled up tissue from his lungs around the clock, cleaned his ventilator, brushed his black curly hair from his sweaty face, comforted us, kept him alive. I will never forget every one of their names & faces. Pay them. #NYCNurseStrike
