“I was 50 and still suffering the eating disorder that had plagued me my whole life, but now it has truly vanquished.”
When Romany Romany from the UK came onto the MyMT™ programme a couple of years ago, I thought her name was a bit unusual, so I emailed her to ask if I had it correct – the same first and last names. “Yes, you do” she wrote back, “but to find out why, you need to read my book.” […]
