Acknowledgments
We are greatly indebted to the many patients and their parents whose stories and struggles have both taught and inspired us; we hope this book succeeds in passing on some of their accumulated wisdom.
We are proud to have Lindsey Hall and Leigh Cohn of Grze Books as our partners in publishing this second edition. Their book displays at major eating disorder conferences are a gathering place for professionals who care deeply about this field, and are a reflection of their immense contribution to our chosen field.
Although we knew what important and influential publishers they were, we were delighted to find that Leigh is also an editor par excellence. His rare combination of expertise in the subject matter and superb editing skills made the editing process an especially productive and satisfying experience. Lindsey and Leighs understanding of and commitment to our shared goalsto educate and help those suffering from eating disorders, and those who love themhas made working with them on this book a pleasure. In addition, wed like to thank New York nutritionist Wendy Meyer Sterling, MS, RD, CDN, of North Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System, Schneider Childrens Hospital, for her valuable counsel in updating sections on calcium and bone loss.
We also thank those who sacrificed the most to make this book possible, our families. We are especially grateful to our husbands, Alan and Grant, who believed in us and helped us believe in ourselves. To our children, Branch, Gretta, and Sandy, who understood why it was important for their moms to spend such long hours on the computer.
