A much-needed guide for adults on how to tackle an eating disorder and rebuild a healthy relationship with food
For many people, thinking about food is just one small part of their day—but for those struggling with an eating disorder (ED), these thoughts take over and leave them desperately asking, “How can I eat normally again?”
Dietitians Wendy Sterling and Casey Crosbie have the answer: the Plate-by-Plate Approach®, a no-numbers, visual method that teaches readers how to restore their relationship with food using only a ten-inch plate. This approach works across all eating disorder diagnoses—in conjunction with medical and psychological treatment—and helps individuals:
- Break free from the physical and psychological traps of an eating disorder
- Learn how to plate meals and snacks without measuring or counting
- Heal their relationship with their body and repair their body image
- Eat flexibly, paving the way to intuitive eating and a renewed sense of joy around food.

How to Nourish Yourself through an Eating Disorder is a fantastic resource and guide for those struggling with eating disorders. This book is not specifically about any single disorder, but approaches healthy eating in a way that is conducive for sufferers of a variety of disorders.
The book begins with a very thorough attempt to help you understand your eating disorder and your unhealthy relationship to food. It goes over the signs and symptoms of eating disorders. As always, of course, it is best to work with your medical team. This is a wonderful place to start, though.
The second part of the book focuses on the Plate-by-Plate approach to eating. This focuses on getting a nutritious balanced meal into your body. It gives a few different options as guidelines and addresses some barriers that may be obstacles for some.
The third part of the book looks at some common issues and strategies for recovery. As expected, working with your medical team, creating a support system around you, and learning how to deal with your underlying problems are in this section. While a lot of this section is 'common sense' it is something we all need a reminder of, too! There's also a section on pregnancy, postpartum, and parenting.
The final part of this guide delves into finding food freedom and learning to navigate life in the real world in a safe and healthy manner, and learning to be happy with your body.
This guide is very thorough, covers many different aspects of dealing with an eating disorder, with the primary thing setting this book apart from others is there Plate-by-Plate Approach. This is an excellent resource and guide for anyone dealing with an eating disorder, or anyone who loves someone who is dealing with these problems.
Thanks Netgalley for the opportunity to review this eARC in exchange for my honest review on the book!

I desired to read this because of my interest in distorted eating. I was so pleased that NetGalley provided an ARC for the purpose of this review. Four stars. It's in depth and full of research and case studies. But it's all presented in an understandable way. I loved that men were included and not just a spotlight on women with anorexia. I think the authors did a fantastic job with this topic.
