Eating disorders are so much more than skinny pictures in the magazine, and wanting to be thin. It's a serious and severe psychological disorder. It's about control, the food restriction and excessive exercise are only symptoms of something very very wrong inside. The need to control something when life seems to be spinning completely out of control.

You can take the pictures out of the magazine, it won't change a thing, it really has very little to do with it. It's all inside.

We need to provide more support to pregnant mothers, eliminate these 4 weekly appointments, pregnancy is a HUGE life changing event, and some mothers need more support than a 5 minute weigh-in, BP check, heartrate check every 4 weeks...
