“It’s not every day that I write a thank-you note, but it’s also not every day that someone saves my life. Actually, there were probably a dozen someones at Sunset who had a hand in saving my life. When I checked in to the Sunset Malibu eating disorder center, I weighed 80 pounds. I was anorexic and fading fast- I’d lost 5 pounds just in the month before I entered treatment. I was immediately stabilized and put on all sorts of dietary supplements while I began undergoing therapy. At first I had the usual disinterest in food. But as I began to make progress and I started eating more of the incredible food the chef put together, I began to actually gain weight. That food was so great- I really miss it. Maybe the ocean breeze had something to do with my appetite coming back too. I also started working out with your personal trainer. When I was discharged, I weighed in at 90 pounds. But I was also in much better physical condition than I’ve been in for years. I’m over 100 pounds now, still in great shape and well on my way to my ideal weight of 120 pounds. I feel great and I owe it all to you guys.” — Name Withheld
“Bravo on the toll free help line. The Internet doesn’t always have all the answers and no one has the time to pick through 500 different opinions to the same question. I called with questions about bulimia and spoke to a counselor who really knew her stuff. I had all the info I needed in twenty minutes and I was confident that she knew what she was talking about. She even brought someone who runs the Sunset Malibu eating disorder center onto the line for a few minutes to confirm some facts! That’s something that I really appreciated.” — Name Withheld
