Next meeting for the Beck Group Jun 2

I'll be hosting The Beck Group June 2, 2009 at 6:30 PM in Raleigh at

Dr. Judith Beck has written some books on learning to 'Think Thin.' Her book and accompanying workbook, the Beck Diet Solution are a '6 week' program to help people learn to 'think thin.' I want to address a different topic each time we meet. While it is not necessary to purchase her books to participate, I'm sure it would help. You can find the books on Amazon.com, BarnesAndNoble.com or Borders.com and can often get used copies at a very reasonable price. You'll also need to get a journal and some 3x5 cards.

(Apparently you can get the hard copy for $4.90 at Waldenbooks... www.obesityhelp.com/forums/amos/3942454/Beck-Diet-Solution-H ard-Cover-on-sale-Waldenbooks-for-4-90/)

We have some 'homework associated with each meeting. For the upcoming meeting, the topic will be "How to Stop Self Sabotage" ... Identify the ways you sabotage yourself and then provide ways to support yourself instead.  For example, having a bag of chips in cabinet may lead to over indulgence, so I even though I know it's somewhat wasteful and more expensive, I buy pre-packaged chips for my daughter's lunch so that I stay out of them... Just one of many.

I look forward to our next meeting and to learning some new coping mechanisms.
