Why Am I so Angry?

<P>This book is about my search for the truth about what caused or contributed to my life- long weight problem. In spite of my consulting doctors nutritionists psychiatrists psychologists psychotherapists joining Weight Loss organizations and trying numerous diets nothing had worked.</P><P>Because my lecturer in his feedback on one of my assignments in a counselling course said if I spent as much time looking at the Inside Helen- as I had on the outside Helen The weight may come off and stay off I did as he suggested by writing this book.</P><P>I looked at myself as a Greek Australian baby schoolgirl adolescent and adult. I connected with feelings I had previously supressed or repressed. I discovered information about eating disorders and the brain which led me to the confronting but liberating realisation that since childhood I had an undiagnosed Binge Eating Disorder. Later I found this could have been the result of forgott en trauma which had alienated me from myself and other people.</P><P>Finding the truth and reconciling myself to the past has freed me from eating compulsively. My weight is within the normal BMI range and I weigh less now than I did as a child of eleven.</P>
