"In 7th or 8th grade I started really worrying about being fat, and
wanting to lose weight. I generally would start doing exercises,
then stop, not having the discipline to keep at it. At some point I
became interested in calories and started counting them. I drove
everyone crazy (friends at school) asking them if I was fat. Over
and over again I would ask. One friend finally got fed up and said,
"Yes, you're fat." And I interpreted it that he'd finally told the
truth."
When Martha was eleven years old, her parents' divorce
devastated her. Shortly thereafter, Martha began her descent into
an eating disorder that would slowly overtake her self-confidence
and eventually her entire life. Martha details her journey from the
innocence of adolescence and the transition into womanhood in this
poignant diary of her thirteen-year battle with bulimia. With hopes
of inspiring bulimics to consider change and to encourage recovery,
Martha offers insight into the illness as she shares her often
heartbreaking experiences and honest reflections. You will learn
how the disease begins, delve into the emotional ups and downs, and
witness Martha's steps toward lasting recovery.
You too can start over. It's time to begin helping yourself or
someone you love find the path to peace and healing.
