Remarkable story
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This woman's life paralleled mine in so many ways--Harvard undergrad, young to marry, overachiever, and now bulimic. Caroline offers a path to recovery that I personally think is the only truly effective way: enlisting the help of God. This book is written in such a way that it won't trigger eating disorder behaviors, which many of the books on the subject do. I highly recommend this book to people who are in a dark place right now looking for hope and an answer to their prayers.
There Is Hope For Bulimics
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
Trying to find books dealing with bulimia is tough. Atleast books that are up to date. My Name Is Caroline is a wonderful book for anyone who is/was bulimic. She never tried to hide any of her feelings in this book. You understand and sympathize with her. She is the typical/textbook bulimic. Upper-middle class, perfectionist, controlling parents... She shows you that there is hope and that you don't have to live your life like this.
Not just for bulimics

It is truly an interesting and easy to read story. Keep this one on hand to reread when you need encouragement or have lost sight of your ultimate goal of staying healthy and happy.
