[quote=Anonymous]The PP on the first page talking about the latest research on eating disorders is exactly right. And big no to the PP saying that girls control food as a coping mechanism. Do you believe refrigerator mothers cause autism? Both are super outdated and super wrong. The fact that she wanted to restrict the chicken because she was concerned about eating too many calories is a huge red flag. As an athlete, she needs to eat a lot and eat to satisfy her hunger. Same for her age as she goes through puberty. F.E.A.S.T. is an excellent resource. If you meet with a dietician, look for one who follows HAES. Many quietly have eating disorders themselves, so you need to be careful. I like Potomac Behavioral Services, but they don’t take insurance. [/quote]
