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.
