An #EatingDisorder history in #parents can reduce confidence in developing healthy eating habits and positive body image in their child. BUT you can rewrite your story and learn new child feeding skills! Excellent reporting from @mwjohnso @romper, in which I’m also interviewed.
If you secretly know your eating issues affect how you feed your kids, there are things you can do! romper.com/parenting/pare…

If your doctor isn’t hearing you or blames everything on excess weight. via @NYTimes nytimes.com/2022/07/29/wel…
The plenary on atypical anorexia at #ICED2022 provides so many powerful examples of how weight bias leads to worse treatment and how we should be treating cognitions and behaviors not weight, not make assumptions about patients with EDs, and ensure treatments make for *everyone*
"Zip code is more predictive of health than BMI." "Full weight restoration is important among this group as well."👏 Some of many great points made by @RebeckaPeebles talking about atypical anorexia. #ICED2022
Anorexia is anorexia and it can occur at all sizes. Nothing atypical about it. Love to hear Rebecka Peebles discuss this important topic... “is being fat worse than being sick?” #ICED2022
#ICED2022 plenary highlighting ED during Midlife and Beyond! Thank you! #AcademyForEatingDisorders @DeborahLynnReas @crunfola @jasonmnagata @_phillippa and Barbara Mangweth-Matzek
