Real Females Unite

I found this amazing new project that I thought I would share with everyone. It’s called Real Females Unite and it’s been created by a young woman who has PASSION! She struggled with an eating disorder, bulimia, for 3 years.

She is now working on a recovery book, as well as this ambitious new project. Called Project Unplastic, she has created a new forum for people who are recovering or have recovered from an eating disorder. Note that the forum is kept positive and pro-recovery.

This is where readers can build a community of support and help inspire and encourage each other through recovery. Her hope is to have participants share ideas and thoughts on body image, societal expectations, and how to be happy and healthy women. Doesn’t sound like a bad idea!

Through Project Unplastic, she will also write a book. She wants it to be unlike all of the other eating disorder books in stores today and will focus on tools that are helpful on our journey to “health and true self-acceptance.” People can contribute to the book by emailing her to be anonymously interviewed.

If you’d like to be a part of the book or find out more info on this exciting new project, click onto Real Females Unite.
