Body Image & Eating Disorders
Living in our culture, it's not surprising if you feel you have to look a certain way to be happy or even healthy. However, the things you are doing to be thin can quickly spin out of control and become a serious life-threatening eating disorder.
- Do you spend time wishing parts of your body looked different?
- Are you unhappy with your reflection in the mirror?
- Do you skip meals?
- Do you count the calories or fat grams in anything you eat?
- Do you exercise so much that you are fatigued or have frequent injuries?
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, consider reading more about body image and eating disorders, requesting a presentation, or referring to additional resources.
