Lighter & Free from the Inside Out by Bob Wilson

I attended OHSU's support group today and really enjoyed Bob Wilson's presentation. It is along the same lines as the class I am attending with Dr. Christine Jensen,  "Changing from the inside out."  Bob is quite a bit more animated than Christine. He shares his personal experiences with weight loss and addictions. He has a book out that appears to have a lot of good information and resources. His website is http://balancedweightmanagement.com. He talks about meditation, loving ones-self and how to get back on track when you have fallen off. Bob will be speaking again on 10/20 at the 6:30 PM meeting at the Center for Health and Healing.
