I wasn't sure the best way to get in touch with you so figured I'd try this route. I wanted to share this article I just found in <i>Diabetes Forecast</i><i> The article is titled "Dropping Insulin to Drop Pound" by Terri D'Arrigo. And the catch phrase is "The practice of with holding insulin as a way to lose weight is a serious eating disorder with devastating consequences." I think that sums the article fairly well. The rest of it consists of emotional examples, and general information about the need for insulin and eating disorders. I just found it a rather horrifying new eating disorder that I had not heard of before. Any type of eating disorder is very dangerous but in this particular one there is a whole new level of risk. Just wanted to share it. Take care.</i> Hi Dana. I wasn’t sure the best way to get in touch with you so figured I’d try this route.

I just found it a rather horrifying new eating disorder that I had not heard of before. Any type of eating disorder is very dangerous but in this particular one there is a whole new level of risk.

Just wanted to share it. Take care.
