I am utterly convinced it is making things worse rather than better. I lecture to MDs about the feeding relationship and weight and how feeding to either push weight DOWN OR UP almost always backfires. I am convinced that the current medical approach to this problem is close to, if not malpractice.

Of course "childhood obesity" is nothing compared to anorexia, healthwise! What a bunch of idiots. How can people who are so smart be so stupid? If there's ever, ever anything I can do to help, please let me know.<br /><br />-DeeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974004432153336731.post-62384167285357048122009-05-28T07:13:07.374-07:002009-05-28T07:13:07.374-07:00Thanks again for the comments!

It's hard enough for me to stand up for myself just facing my regular treating physicians.
