After years of gritty "meal replacement" drinks in the pre-Slimfast era and boxes and boxes of Snackwells and eating so few calories I would go to an aerobics class and come home shivering from over exertion and bad nutrition (this was all in the 80s and 90s) I really truly wish that things were better for these next generations but I fear that it just isn't. Thank you for writing this story. It was hard for me to read but very important to write.
