"When I am working with someone about her relationship to food, I am constantly struck with how little her food obsession has to do with food. No matter how urgent the eating problem seems -- I've been bingeing for three straight weeks, I've gained thirty pounds in the last ten days, I have diabetes and can't stop eating sugar -- within five minutes of conversation, the issue is no longer about food and almost completely about what she believes is possible from this life she is living." - Geneen Roth
