In the meantime...

Hi all,

In my time away from the blog, I've been pretty busy!  I've seen been advocating for the Eating Disorders Coalition and even got my Congressman Dave Loebsack to sign on as a co-sponsor of the FREED Act.  It takes a lot of calls and following up but it can be done!  I urge everyone to learn about the Federal Response to Eliminate Eating Disorders H.R. 1193 (Senate version S 3260) today.  The aim of this bill is to provide adequate coverage for eating disorders, improve education about eating disorders, and increase funding for research.

Probably my most exciting news was getting an Op/Ed published in my local newspaper.

I look forward to the next Lobby Day sponsored by the Eating Disorders Coalition on September 29-30, 2010.  I hope that some of you will be consider attending.

Of course I also look forward continue to post regularly.

Peace be with you.
