Rep Power: 357932 | | | What I found most interesting the first time that I perused his website.. other than the fact he didn't have any original thoughts... Most of his stuff was lifted straight from the Beck solution and a few other best sellers... is that he seems to be trying to make himself into a counsellor of a sort -yet accepts no insurance at all -is that because he's got no qualifications?

Whether it's anorexia, bulimia, a combo, OR overeating/emotional eating, those are all channels of dealing with something else in your life. Mistreatment from a loved one, a bad experience, fear of never being good enough (this was the chip on my shoulder) you can get past it if you want. I took half boxes of extra strength laxatives, ate 800 cals or less, worked out for hours (honestly I nearly lost all of my college scholarships at one point because of those behaviours consuming my life and I stopped studying), and after some successful counseling sessions and getting out into the world and learning to stop taking everything so personally I got over it. Now if I could only get over food being so tasty.
Sorry to take over the thread with that. I hope I'm not taking any business away from the master at hand.
