Tracey Gold's new book: Room to Grow: An Appetite for Life

Ten years have passed since photos of a shockingly thin Tracey faced us from the cover of one of People magazine's best-selling issues ever. Today, an older and wiser Tracey Gold is ready to share her story.

"I always knew that there'd come a day in the future, when I was far away from the media glare surrounding my illness and I'd have the proper time and perspective to process all I went through. Now there are many more trained experts in the field of anorexia and eating disorders and there are a lot of girls who have struggled with it. My hope is that in sharing my experiences, battles and hard-earned knowledge, Room to Grow will be something people can turn to for help, a source of comfort and encouragement. It is for every sister, daughter, friend or boyfriend whose life has been touched by anorexia nervosa. This is my story. I hope it helps."

I appreciated reading this book, and do recommend it to anyone struggling with an eating disorder themselves, or concerned about a loved one with an eating disorder. It's a fast and easy read, with a message of hope and recovery.
