This is probably one of the most common misconceptions about eating disorders: that you have to appear “underweight” in order to have one. In truth, body size is not an indicator; eating disorders can impact anyone. At Center for Discovery, we support Health at Every Size® (HAES®) principles. We do not consider weight, size, or BMI as proxies for health. Rather, we view individuals holistically, including their medical, emotional and behavioral state as true indicators of their wellbeing.
