Grace King was an only child brought up by her mother, a single parent. She had a normal childhood and was always a high achiever with a positive attitude. But without her father's acceptance and love, underlying feelings of rejection, inadequacy, and guilt engulfed her. Her great-grandmother died, and Grace had her heart broken by her first love; guilt, regret, and self-hatred soon set the foundation for her to fall victim to the vicious grip of bulimia. For more than ten years, she struggled to free herself from bulimia's hold and became lonely, depressed, and desperate. After years of self-destruction, disappointment, and regret, her conscience collapsed, and she longed for her healthy and meaningful life back more than ever. Grace was forever grateful for the friendships she forged and for the relationships she endured, knowing how much they had taught her about the meaning and purpose of life. She was always hopeful that one day, looking in the mirror would bring back the feeling of acceptance and happiness to a now repulsed, sad, and lost soul. She embarked on a transformational journey that depended on the choices she made each day. Her heart was filled with endless hope, courage, and commitment to searching for the solution toward knowing herself again and being true to herself. Through prayer, she found the path that led her to the light and allowed herself to be cured. It was through surrendering her bulimia to God, she learnt to love and forgive herself and she finally embraced her healing. She is a survivor and hopes her story will help save other lives too.

We're obsessed with weight, we dislike our bodies, we worry about
the food we eat, we feel guilty, we diet. Too many of us are locked
into a war with our own bodies which we'll never win, and which
will never make us happy. "The Ministry of Thin" takes a
controversial, unflinching look at how the modern, international
obsession with weight loss, youth, beauty, and perfection has spun
out of control. Emma Woolf, author of " An Apple a Day, " explores
how we might all be able to stop hating and start liking our own
bodies again. She rallies against the industries of food, health,
exercise, beauty, sex, and surgery that seek to create a world that
verges on the Orwellian --with the victims of this onslaught
trapped and dominated by the societal pressures to conform.

This book was written in an effort to help others who are struggling with anorexia and bulimia so that they too can relate to their own recovery process on a more personal level. The questions and exercises in this book are designed to help those who have difficulties journaling and coming to terms with their eating disorders and to teach them how to self-identify to their relationship with ED and with themselves. During the course of my own recovery, I constantly asked myself, who am I without ED? At the time, ED was the only identity I had ever known and therefore I think was a part of the reason why I held back from moving forward with my recovery for so long. But, now that I consider myself recovered from both the anorexia and the bulimia, my only regret is that I did not choose to walk away from ED years ago I have created this book to help people from all stages of recovery; whether it is your first day or your one hundredth, because recovery is possible at any age in one's life.
Anguish, guilt, anger, fear, and hopelessness are words often used by mothers who suffer alongside a daughter with an eating disorder. Mothers care for the emotional, physical, and spiritual needs of their children, but who cares for them? Cathy Robinson watched her daughter starve herself until she was near death. The resulting helplessness was almost too much for a mother to bear. Making matters worse was the feeling that she was utterly alone in her guilt and pain. She needed others to identify with and help her through this difficult time. "A Melody of Hope: Surviving Your Daughter's Eating Disorder" features inspirational true stories written by mothers of daughters who have recovered from eating disorders; they seek to provide encouragement, hope, and support to mothers beginning their journey. Told with breathtaking honesty and insight, these stories represent some of the many experiences shared by these mothers. For a mother coming to terms with her daughter's illness, these stories represent a welcome community of understanding. "There are very few books that feature families, and fewer still recounting success stories. Far too many are stories written about the tragedy a family experiences when a family member dies as a result of the disorder, not about the much larger community that experiences success. Hope is what people need during those periods when it seems the disorder will never be overcome, and hope is what this book offers." -Bryan Gusdal, MA, Program founder/director, Westwind Eating Disorder Recovery Centre, Brandon, Manitoba
"Is it really possible to recover from an eating disorder? I need
to talk to someone who has beaten this and is happy. I want to know
what someone else did to recover." |
