A look at what happens when you've climbed back out of the rabbit hole.

What is normal, anyway?

Today I didn't eat much, drank a little more wine than I should have. Normal people do that sometimes, right?

Last Saturday, I worked out so hard my muscles burned for days. Normal people do that sometimes, right?

Occasionally I step on the scale and stare at it for a good ten minutes, wondering if the numer will change. Normal people do that sometimes, right?

Every time I put on a pair of pants, I analyze the exact position at which they fall on my hips. Normal people do that sometimes, right?

What is normal, anyway? Am I someone recovering from an eating disorder? Am I a normal woman in 21st century America? Is there that much of a difference?
