If you’ve been with me since last summer, then you might remember a radio broadcast about the internet and eating disorders that I participated in last September. The other day, the host of that show (New Tech City on WNYC) contacted me to say that the story had done so well that they would be re-airing the story with an update!

The broadcast is more or less the same as it was last September, save for a brief update I sent in. Well, okay — it actually wasn’t brief at all.

In the meantime, thank you, again, for being patient with me lately. I know I haven’t been writing as frequently. We are just coming off the busy season at work, and I’ve, admittedly, been struggling a bit on the eating disorder front. I’ll write more about that soon. Not to worry, though — just the normal ups and downs of recovery. I think…
