“Eating Disorder Recovery - 3” - originally posted on December 10, 2007 on YouTube.
From my first YouTube series “Eating Disorder Recovery,” which became “Body Empowerment.” This video answers a viewer’s questions about counting calories, and whether or not full recovery exists. I will post all the videos from my YouTube series “Eating Disorder Recovery” and “Body Empowerment,” in order, until I am up to date with my most current videos.
We would like to welcome Caroline Rothstein to Tumblr.

In her own words: Body Empowerment is an effort to help others overcome their struggles with food and eating disorders, I am open to share my story and the steps I have taken to overcome a ten year eating disorder.
