I'm not familiar with "Thin Within". I take a look on amazon.com.
I visited Lucy Beale's Web site. I won't judge her approach, but
descriptively, her approach is not the same as the other authors I mentioned
because of her strong emphasis on BECOMING THIN. The other authors I
mentioned shift the emphasis away from an obsessive concern with body size to
learning to eat according to hunger. They redefine the problem. If you lose
weight, it's a side benefit--it's not the main goal. They say that being fat
is not the problem. The problem is compulsive eating and obsession with body
size.
