In the United States, as many as 10 million females and 1 million males are fighting a life and death battle with anorexia or bulimia and another 25 million with binge eating disorder, according to the National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA). As these numbers have continued to rise, so does the need to raise awareness. National Eating Disorders Awareness Week (NEDAW), Feb. 24 to March 1, is held annually to turn the nation's attention to these life-threatening diseases.
Working with NEDA and fellow official coordinators nationwide, Chicago-based Timberline Knolls, a leading residential treatment center, will encourage throwing out skinny jeans in favor of comfortable ones. For the "Embrace Your Genes" drive, Timberline Knolls will collect jeans at the admissions desk in the main building, located at 40 Timberline Drive in Lemont through Feb.

She stressed: "We hope to talk it through with the people concerned. It will be a two-way consultation. No decisions have been made and we are here to listen." Before last week, Hope, Hopton Wafers, Onny and Rushbury schools in the south of Shropshire were slated for closure.
