help musmnetters. I have a younger sister who has just moved to Brighton. She is fairly over weight and desperately wants to lose weight and gain confidence and control over her life. She is earning a pittance in a training position, living away from home for the first time (she is still a teen). Anyway, I have encouraged her in the past with no success. I know that weight loss is a very hard thing and that family support isn't always hepful or useful. I would love to find her a life coach in Brighton to help her on her way. But I need to find someone who is trainign or costs very little - ideally someone who could use her in a case study as part of their training. It would be a very interesting case I am sure! She desperately needs a mentor (she is an incredibly beautiful girl so it is very frustrating for her watching her skinny friends get boyfriends and have a much easier social life that she does. She is in a downward spiral and I would love to help her but sense that getting her help elsewhere would probably work best.
any ideas, anyone?? I will also post this on a weight thread if I can find one...
