On June 24th I watched (most of) an episode of Extreme Weight Loss on ABC in which Bruce, originally at 382 pounds, confronts his father who sexually abused him and other boys at a parole hearing after which his father went back to jail for a long time.
It seems to me to be a classic story for ACEs Connection. At the end, Bruce came through well psychologically and he set records for the percent of original body weight lost during the one-year process (I think his final weight was 181 pounds).
I think that many ACEs Connection subscribers would find it very interesting.
My only concern about sharing this is about the counseling/motivating techniques used by Chris, the coach. I don't know if they are consistent with any recommendations you might have.
Here is the link: http://abc.go.com/shows/extreme-weight-loss. ; I would appreciate any feedback on this.
