Hi everyone.
I had a ‘blip’ a couple of weeks ago, I’m now back on track, but it really was the last straw for me loosing patience with my counsellor. Long story short, she has said a varity of comments to me since I started which have just rubbed me up the wrong way and I didn’t find her supportive at all.
I couldn’t make class last week (First time – I emailed her to explain (my Mother was extremely ill and I took a week of work to go and nurse her in my home town that is 3 hours away, and asked if I could come for a pop-in to get my packs when I was back – NO REPLY!)
On top of this I really do not like the format of her classes. This is the second time I have done LL and the first time I found the CBT invaluable. This LLC seems to jump round the materials, add her own & we don’t watch the DVDs (she says people don’t find them useful)
I have been looking for another LLC close by and have called up a couple, so far none of them have got back to me and they aren’t really in that are in convenient locations anyway.
I’m thinking of swapping to Cambridge, as I have found a counsellor that’s really convenient to me and I can’t see it’s worth paying the extra for the counselling that is with my LLC in all honesty completely useless!
(PLEASE NOONE READ THIS AND THINK THAT I’M KNOCKING THE LL COUNSELLING PROGRAMME , WITH THE RIGHT COUNSELLER LIKE I HAD LAST TIME I FOUND IT INVALUABLE AND KEY TO THE PROGRAMME)
Unfortunately I’m no longer located near my old LLC, or I would go back their like a shot!
My questions are
1, Can you loose the same amount of weight on CD as LL, I’m assuming you can as it’s the same packs, but I’m confused as to when you have to add a meal on CD, or if you are allowed to follow sole source until your target BMI, or if you have to add a meal when your BMI is less than 25.
2, I was thinking that the RTM would be invaluable and am concerned about not following this.
3, Do you think that it’s my warped internal chatterbox trying to get me off the programme al together!!
I do see a fantastic therapist/counsellor weekly who I organically went to see with relationship issues, pretty early on we started working on my food issues and it’s my intent to work through the plan with her and not give up the counselling all together, I just feel as though my LLC is not giving me good value.
