Managing Life with an Eating Disorder can be a challenge… add in a Chronic Illness, and there are sometimes no words to describe the frustrations you experience. But some people do get it… people living in the same situation and with the same challenges as you.

These are the folks in our “Resilient Voices’ virtual support group, led by Anita Dharwadkar, one of the Registered Dietitians with Marci RD Nutrition. She lives with a chronic illness and has extensive experience with clients of all ages and stages of recovery.

Our bodies carry not only our personal experiences but also the weight of societal expectations. It's no wonder that negative body image can leave us feeling disconnected and unsafe.

But remember - we don't have to conform to unrealistic standards. Instead, we can work on changing the systems that perpetuate harmful ideals.

Whether you’re a new freshman or a seasoned senior, or even a recent grad starting a new job… these life changes can be challenging in many ways.

It's a time filled with change, and it makes sense why the transition to college and to the workforce are some of the most prevalent times for an eating disorder to emerge.

Anita Dharwadkar, one of the Registered Dietitians with Marci RD Nutrition, knows from personal experience that one of the best ways to navigate eating “healthy” during these times is finding support and having a safe space to talk to others in the same situation as you.

We offer a group program led by Anita that offers a space for people 18 and up, including college students and new grads too, to get the support you need.

Our next group is running from January to March; we meet every 2 weeks, and it is a great way to build your resilience before school starts or as you jump into that new job.

To see if our program is a fit for you, check out this information and contact Anita to apply. You can also share this with anyone you know who may be interested.

Embrace the beauty of dialectics – the coexistence of opposing truths. Recognize that it's possible to feel conflicting emotions at the same time and that both positive and negative emotions can be valid responses to change.

Have you ever felt like chronic illness has taken something from you? Maybe it's your energy, your plans, or even parts of your identity. These losses are real, and the grief that comes with them deserves to be acknowledged.

Understanding the emotional impact of chronic illness is just as important as managing the physical symptoms. In this article, “Living with Chronic Illness Comes with Loss and Grief”, we discuss how to navigate these feelings and find ways to cope with the ever-changing realities of chronic health conditions.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure about how to manage food, body image, or chronic illness? You’re not alone.

College students and young adults often carry immense pressure, and when you add an eating disorder or chronic illness into the mix, it can feel even more isolating.

At Marci RD Nutrition, we will be offering a weekly virtual support group led by Registered Dietitian Anita Dharwadkar beginning January 27th. The group is for people ages 18+, with a special focus on those navigating eating disorders and chronic illness during college or early adulthood.

If you have a Chronic illness, I want to encourage you to take a moment to pause and reflect on everything you have overcome and lived through.

Chronic illness can be incredibly challenging, but recognizing your resilience and strength can help to create a more positive relationship with your body.

Therapeutic relationships are not one-sided; they're a dance of mutual growth. Clinicians are not just guides; they are learning and evolving alongside their clients.

Living with an eating disorder is hard.
Living with a chronic illness is hard.

Managing both at the same time can feel exhausting and isolating.

Friends may not fully understand.
Medical appointments can feel frustrating or dismissive.
You may find yourself explaining, advocating, and pushing for care over and over again.

Resilient Voices was created for this exact experience.

It’s a small, virtual eating disorder and chronic illness support group where you can talk openly, learn practical strategies, and connect with others who truly get it.

The group is led by Dietitian Anita Dharwadkar, who brings both professional expertise and lived experience with chronic illness to the space.

If you’re looking for support that understands the complexity of managing recovery and chronic illness together, this group may be a meaningful next step.

The winter cohort begins January 27.
