Hello Community, 

The "Through Thick and Thin" Community Forum has launched our "Don't Diet Live-It!" online support group. This group meets weekly on our forum under the "Don't Diet Live-It! Support Group" thread.

"The Don't Diet Live-It! Workbook Healing Food, Weight & Body Issues" By, Andrea Wachter, LMFT and Marsea Marcus, LMFT 

This workbook comes highly recommended by eating disorder professionals. It has been successfully used in the treatment of a broad range of eating disorders. The book is divided into four separate journeys. With each journey, you read the same opening material, but the questions to answer evolve as you go through your recovery process. In other words, this is a workbook that grows alongside you while also helping you witness your progress. Being able to acknowledge how far you have come is essential for the longevity of any recovery process. 

I will be participating alongside all others who would like to be involved. As usual, I will be sharing my experience of the material in an unapologetically candid manner. I'm really looking forward to diving in deeper with the use of this workbook. I hope there will be others who join me on this healing journey. 

Considering this group runs on a weekly basis, there is time to obtain a copy if you would like to join in on the first session. You can drop in on the support thread at the forum at any point during the week. This is not static and can easily work around any schedule. 

More so than intuitive eating, this is going to become the new model for our community. There are intuitive eating elements presented in the material. However, this workbook is about dealing with the core issues. Continual focus on food and body image only serves to create more confusion and complication. Until you take the leap and demonstrate willingness to reach in and tear out the root, the weeds will keep coming back. 

It's time for our community to be free of ED once and for all. Let's give ol' ED a swift kick in the ass and show him the door. Supporting one another through shared experience, we will find a way through.
