New Book Offers Unique Insight

A new book by Leslie Goldman can be a great resource for those who struggle with eating disorders and unhealthy body images. Locker Room Diaries is an in-depth study into the ways that women view their bodies - both positive and negative.

"Using her own stories as a springboard, she asks them what goes into shaping not just their bodies but their body image... She hears from women who follow compulsive workout schedules and make daily dates with the scale..."
Though she does talk with many women who simply don't like the way they look, she also has many conversations with women who have learned to appreciate every curve and wrinkle. The book promises to be a valuable resource, teaching women to re-define "beauty" and learn to love what they see when they look in the mirror.
