Ever heard of BED? (And no, I’m not talking about what you sleep on at night.) BED stands for Binge Eating Disorder, and it’s quietly become America’s No.1 eating disorder. In fact, 1 in 35 suffer from BED, and that’s just the reported cases.

I’ve already shared my personal struggle with emotional eating/overeating/binge eating, and it’s nice to see more discussion and awareness brought to this sometimes difficult-to-talk-about subject. We recently came across this Q&A with Sunny Sea Gold on NeverSayDiet.com about just this topic. Sunny suffered from BED in the past and is the health editor at Glamour.

Sunny also unveils plans to have more regular-sized girls in the magazine. Awesome.
