weight councelling assessment results!

[acom]

Hi,
do you remember me asking you all about weight councelling?
I said that I was going for an assessment to discuss my food 'addiction'
Well ---- it was ----- FANTASTIC.
At last after 42 years of life I have found someone who understands my head and stomach!
She says that I would benefit in 20 x 1 hour sessions ( 1 a week) to disintangle my food addiction.
I am now waiting for the letter to say where and when I can have the sessions!
I have been to a general councellor before but they just 'didn't get' the weight / life / crap connection.
SO I AM VERY EXCITED !!!!!

Perhaps you could do a diary and put in it what you learn as you go...I know I would find it very helpful.

Love Mini xxx

Hi Acom,
delighted you have such a positive attitude to the counselling, wishing you all the best with it. With such help you should be able to lick that addiction. All the best.

Hiya
I am happy to do a weekly diary after the councelling sessions.
Do I do it as a normal 'thread' ?????
It is a free service with voluntary (absolutley no pressure) contributions gratefully received.
I will certainly tell all I can about what was discussed apart from personal (non eating-problem related).
I think it is something that most, if not all, of us should look into.

The only problem is they won't start councelling till I start to eat again, so I will start refeeding in about 2 weeks time!

It sounds fab, and I thought something like that would have cost mega bucks. Who is it done by? I would be interested to find out of there was something like that in my area. Good luck, it sounds like something really worthwhile
