About the Book

When does dieting end and an eating disorder begin? When is a diet too extreme? Much more than a diary, “Lost” takes you through the different phases of disordered eating. From the very first distorted self images to the full blown disorder, to treatment and recovery. It is insightfully written through poetry and diary entries. “Lost” is brutally honest and it also shows the reader how, at any age, it is possible to live a happy, healthy, and authentic life.
