Testimonial from Ramey Nutrition Patient (no longer:)

I just wanted to thank you so much for being a huge part of my life’s journey, especially during a season that was very rough. Three years ago today was the LAST time I ever binged/purged. There were times that I couldn’t believe that I’d be on “the other side,” but you always believed. I am so thankful for you and the work that you do. The tools you’ve equipped me with, I will use for the rest of my life. Your encouragement and practice have helped me view my life as a redemption song (in progress). I know that God has used you to help me heal and transform and I am eternally grateful. I no longer look back at the woman struggling with bulimia with contempt, I look back with compassion.

RNEDA Ramey Nutrition Eating Disorder Awareness: Anorexia

     It is striking to realize that nearly half of all Americans personally have or know someone with an eating disorder. It is not uncommon for people suffering from anorexia to deny having a problem and it may be difficult to notice the signs of anorexia.

     Anorexic signs and symptoms may include: dramatic weight loss, skipping meals, not wanting to eat in public, and fixation on body image. Anorexia can lead to fatal medical conditions including heart disease, liver disease and even heart failure.
   
     People who suffer from anorexia can be treated and moved from the painful, self-destructive pattern of this disease to a life they are proud to direct through the programs at Ramey Nutrition.  For more than 4 years Ramey Nutrition has provided outpatient intensive real world treatment and support for women, men and children of all ages going through the journey toward full recovery.

     Our eating disorder programs are highly flexible and individualized to meet exact needs, regardless of coexisting conditions or stage of change. Located in the heart of the University District, each person is set up with a multi-disciplinary team of professionals dedicated to helping them become, what Ramey Nutrition calls recovered.
