I was just watching "Regis Live" and he had the New Miss America (Michigan - 2008 ) on his show and she talked about how she suffered from a ED when she was younger and how she worked with a Physiologist, a Nutritionist and "I forget the third doctor name" to recover from her ED as an out patient........ she plans on using this issue as her main topic to help other teens during her one year rein.

its almost good that she went through an eating disorder, because she is looked up to by many people and sometimes it takes a figure like someone in the spotlight to shed light down on some of us who feel trapped or feel they cannot relate to anyone.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
