Ten-Mile Morning My Journey through Anorexia

Ten-Mile Morning is a true story about a man's battle to overcome his five-year struggle with anorexia nervosa. Written from a painfully honest perspective, Adam Lamparello discusses his past addictions, depression, anxiety, and the emptiness that arose from his lack of self-esteem. This moving memoir details the author's struggle to gain a sense of control and empowerment through dramatic weight loss, starvation, compulsive exercise, and purging. Ultimately, however, this is a story of hope and recovery. Ten-Mile Morning was written to inspire you and affirm that life after eating disorders is one of self-acceptance, self-respect, and most of all, one where you can achieve your dreams.

Adam Lamparello earned a bachelor's degree from the University of Southern California and thereafter obtained a law degree from the Ohio State University College of Law. After receiving a Master of Laws degree from New York University School of Law, he practiced law for five years before he decided to enter academia and become a law professor. Lamparello maintains a website, www.tenmilemorning.com, which provides information and resources about eating disorders. The website strives to assist individuals in the recovery process and contains a daily blog with stories of recovery.
