A lifetime of struggling with disordered eating can ruin self-esteem and create a sense of helplessness. Here's how one woman fought back and found a way to eat intuitively.
"When I was little, probably seven or eight, the doctor told my mom, 'She's fat, take her to Weight Watchers.' I ate Melba toast and cottage cheese," said Harriet, now age 50. School lunches, she remembers, turned her into an object of ridicule among her elementary classmates.
"I know I'm heavy. I'm never going to look like Chrissy Teigen. I'm never gonna look like Nicole Kidman. I'm never going to be that thin woman, but it's okay because I'm going to be healthy," she said.But Harriet is incensed about a culture that can make a child hate herself.
