Enjoying the Holidays from a California Eating Disorder Recovery Center

For many people, one of their favorite parts about the holidays is the food. For someone who is recovering from an eating disorder, the many events centered on a meal can be challenging.

Ways to Focus on Friends and Family, not Food

Here are some time-tested tips for putting the fun back in holiday celebrations while you are in recovery:

Bulimia Recovery Center in California Offers 3 Ways to Deal with Triggers

While in recovery from bulimia, you will encounter the emotional “triggers” that led to your unhealthy eating behaviors in the past. While that is a virtual certainty, there is no reason you have to give in to them.
