I have posted before there is a "stigma" in traditional weightloss venues: they don't want MO people going for GBS because then we wouldn't spend our hard earned money on weight watchers, gyms, spas, Jennie Craig etc. We will instead follow the advice of a Medical Doc (that guy or gal who went to medical school for most of his or her adult life to become knowledgeable about the inner workings of the body and mind and how they work together.

Maybe I'm a nut but I rather go off the advice of someone who has spent their career studying this issue than someone who sat down for "training" at a computer module and memorized inflated statistics and answers to possible questions.
