I always love these roundups... but this time, something (unrelated to you) bothers me... In May 2011, I was blogging for Recovering Inspirings and wrote a piece incredibly similar in content to The Obesity-Eating Disorder Paradox... Incredibly similar (not in style, but in content)... and you know what's even more odd? I called my piece The Obesity/Emaciation Connection. (http://recoveringinspirings.blogspot.com/2011/05/obesityemaciation-connection.html)
