Website updates--Eating Disorder Awareness Week/PCOS

[THECOUCH at aol.com]

Colleagues,

A couple of years ago I compiled a list of the most frequent triggers teens 
mentioned in working with me--these are disordered eating behaviors exhibited 
by family, friends, and even their treatment team while simultaneously 
verbalizing that the teen needed to change her own behavior.  I receive many 
requests to reproduce this handout,...so I posted it on the website for any 
of you to download and use for free.  Hopefully it will be useful to some of 
you in your EDAW campaigns.

Also, our special topics campaigns on polycystic ovary syndrome and 
fibromyalgia have grown and we are adding more resources on these diagnoses 
and their connection to disordered eating.  This month, PCOS Resource 
Coordinator Kathy Scalzo, MS, RD, CDN launches her Q/A column.  Fibromyalgia 
information is currently under development, and a similar information corner 
should be appearing soon.

Please use these resources as you find appropriate, that's why we developed 
them!

Regards,

Monika M. Woolsey, MS, RD
