Texas Fit Chicks is supporting National Eating Disorder Week by asking our chicks to wear crazy socks as a way of expressing the need to "Sock It To ED," for National Awareness. Please join us the week of February 21-27th by wearing crazy socks to camp!
Join Texas Fit Chicks in support of and in helping to raise awareness for this serious issue. Share pictures on fb, IG, or twitter & use the hashtag #SockItToEdWithTFC so we can share a few of your pictures here on our blog and on our facebook page!
A LETTER FROM ONE OF OUR CHICKS:
"My daughter is recovering from an eating disorder. I must admit this has been a complete shock for all of us. As much of a hold I felt I had on my girls with talks, quality time, etc. the truth is we all missed it. I still struggled with accepting it even after she admitted it until her doctors showed me the lab results. Due to excessive binging and purging her potassium levels reached dangerous levels which eventually lead to organ failure. This has been extremely scary and all I keep asking myself is, "How did I miss it?, How as a mom could I not see the pain and loneliness she was enduring not to mention the self hate.?" I swear, we spent every night together talking, watching television, going on walks together, playing with the dog, grocery shopping, etc. I just do not know what happened or how I missed it. I really thought I was in tune to my kids and their needs; clearly I was wrong. It just goes to show that eating disorders do not discriminate against age, race, or gender.
There is a huge gap in understanding and recognizing what an eating disorder patient looks like.

I am reaching out to you because National Eating Disorder Awareness week is February 21- 27. There is such a misconception of this illness and Dallas is very new in treating this disorder. Doctors and emergency room staff members have so much to learn. When visiting the National Eating Disorder http://www.
