, all of whom take care to place our society’s obsession with thinness in its appropriate cultural context and remind their readers that there is no inherent value in working overtime to make your body look a certain way.

One of the most perplexing things about the eating-disorder mindset is how dramatically it can shrink your world, hiding from view all the things you know should matter to you as you focus more and more narrowly on the shimmering mirage of thinness. I was taken in by that mirage day in and day out when I was 23 or 24, sure that if I could just limit my binges and replace them with periods of starvation, I’d have all the love and luck and professional and personal success I could dream of.
