... And the agony: battling the edible complex

Article Abstract:

A once-happy eater decided at age 10 that she was fat, although this was not true. High school became a time of endless dieting and food was something to be feared. Leaving home at age 17 meant that meals could simply be skipped. At age 20, a truce was made and food became fuel and medicine, never fun.

I network with angels

Article Abstract:

A woman describes how she bought many angel promotions through direct mail, but under an assumed name. She was promised that good fortune would come if she harnessed herself to the forces of angels. On the day her happy days were to start, her purse was stolen, probably a result of the false name.
