She said they may eat-sweets for sev-
eral days, max, then switch to a var-
ied diet. Parents need only make a
variety of foods available. Restricting
what a child eats just sets her up for
bingeing - and weight gain - later.
Waterhouse recommends the fol-
lowing steps toward more healthy
eating:
• Inform your daughter that she
can eat anything that she wants.
Anything:
• Make sure that her favorite foods
are available in the house.
• Ask your daughter to add foods
to the grocery list each week.
• Take her to the supermarket and
have her choose some food from each
section: her favorite fruits and vegeta-
bles, her favorite meats, her favorite
cereals, her favorite desserts.

"We have a
new generation
of daughters
for whom
disordered eating
is not only
acceptable,
it's desirable."

• Once again, keep your promise
and let her eat anything she wants -
even if it's a sugary, high-calorie cere-
al every morning. Offer fruit and
toast on the side, but don't tell her
she has to eat either.
More importantly, though,
Waterhouse said mothers should fol-
low the same program and become
"instinctive eaters." That way they
can model healthy behavior, not just
talk about it.
And, ditch the diet books.
"Dieting doesn't work anyway,"
said San Diego psychologist Deirdra
Price, another eating disorder special-
ist. Nearly all of those who lose •
weight on a diet gain that amount
and more back.
Even if dieting worked, thin -does-
n't necessarily equal happy, Price said.
"If it did, anorexics would be the
happiest people in the world."
