Thanksgiving is upon us. What do you need to understand and care for yourself around food over the holidays? Ask your questions about your eating and food concerns in the comments.

Eating disorders affect women of all ages. Eating disorders do not disappear over time and women do not outgrow them. Without putting conscious effort into recovery eating disorders can be a continuous condition throughout life.

The good news is that recovery can begin at any age. It begins when a woman opens to the possibility that she can receive the help she needs.  So please, reach out for that help now with your questions.
