| Synopsis: |
Susan has struggled with her weight most of her life. Finally, she's managed to lose forty pounds. She's proud of herself - but she knows keeping that weight off is going to be a lifetime struggle, because whenever she feels stressed, she turns to food. Meanwhile, Brooke feels overweight. When she looks in the mirror, she doesn't see the slim body everyone else does: she sees FAT. Her struggle with food is very different from Susan's! It's natural to be concerned about your weight. Working to reach and maintain a healthy weight is important for everyone, and being overweight can have dangerous health consequences. But sometimes a teenager's relationship with food can become unbalanced. Eating disorders are psychiatric conditions; they're illnesses that may include an obsession with food or an extreme concern about body shape and weight. You'll learn more inside this book. |
