1 " If I've learned anything by working with the nutritionist this summer, it's that my relationship with food has been king of messed up for a long time. I've been using food as a means of control, but I've also been using it as a way of avoiding making my own decisions, letting other people tell me what it was okay to eat so I could just go along. I didn't believe I had the power to make good choices myself, or even to make the occasional bad choice and not have it be a catastrophe. "

2 " Maybe fourteen-year-olds can't slip even once or everything goes to sh*t, though I doubt it. But you're not fourteen anymore. You've been this model of discipline for years, but you're also missing out on big stuff. You have to trust yourself a little, let go of some control. Sometimes you have to choose between what's good for you and what might not be good for you but could really be amazing for you. "
