This isn’t just about eating disorders. It’s about enjoying the people we are with and being grateful for everything we have, including the food in front of us. Wishing everyone a wonderful & happy Thanksgiving where hopefully no one comments on body size, type, or their “diet”. – at Gainesville, FL
