Anyone who has taken the time to think about eating disorder recovery, for themselves or a loved one, may have been wondering some of the following thoughts: how long will this take? When will I make progress? How do I know what progress looks like? When will things start to feel normal again? And so on.
What to expect, where to start, how do I know this is the right thing to do? Seeking eating disorder treatment. It will be worth it.
In this last part of the Back To School Lunches Series, we will discuss practice tips to keep parents on track, tools to help the busy parent, and ways to incorporate your child in meal planning and give them nutritional skills.
First in the series of back-to-school lunches. Dietitian, Isabelle Bouchard, answers the question: What are some common mistakes parents make when it comes to focusing on their school child’s nutrition?

From my point of view, I don’t always understand what the humans talk about but I see all kinds of facial expressions and emotions. Sometimes the humans need me to sit with them or come up and let them pet me because I can tell they are stressed. Sometimes there are tears, most of the time there are laughs and smiles! Sometimes the dietitian eats snacks or food with the humans.
