Eileen Palazzolo, author of Free From Perfect: Food, Your Body, and The Pressure to Be Perfect
Start: 7:00 pm
End: 8:30 pm

This book is the result of a program developed by Eileen Palazzo to help girls and young women overcome eating disorders. The program, called Free, is a combination of weight loss and nutrition, but more than that, it is a method to change one's relationship with food.

Palazzolo has been running her "Free" program for several years out of Southern NH where she is also a fitness and gymnastics instructor. It was shortly after recovering from an eating disorder and years of unhealthy self-image on her own that she realized she could help others to overcome society's view of perfection as well. "I am not a nutritionist, psychologist, physician or physiologist," she states, "I am an ordinary person who through many trials and tribulations has found peace with my physical self."

Excerpt:
"The concept of losing body fat, and therefore weight, is a simple mathematical equation. Consume less calories than you burn. This is the only sound solution to the physiological task of weight loss. The psychological task of weight loss is another story indeed."

Bring your questions and join us for this fascinating and important event.

Why Shop Indie?

For every $100 you spend at a local indie business, $68 will stay in the community. When you spend that same $100 at a national chain, only $43 stays in your community.

Local businesses carry a wider array of unique products because they buy for their own market: the people in their community. They know you and know what you like and want.

You wouldn’t want your house to look like everyone else’s in the U.S. Why would you want your community to look that way? More diversity in your community enhances its appeal.

Even more reasons to shop indie...
