First of all, I applaud her for coming from 700 pounds down to 350 - that is a truly exceptional accomplishment and I'm always in awe of people who can make that kind of commitment. But one topic of this week's show really bothered me: eating addiction. When she was talking to her therapist, Ruby seemed completely unaware that she has a food addiction! I can't imagine going through the process of losing 350 pounds and not coming to terms with that fact. Clearly there is a lot more going on with Ruby than she is consciously aware of, and by the end of the show it looked like she was getting the help she needed, but I was left with a sense of amazement at just how deeply subconscious most of our daily choices and habits must be. Wow. Best of luck to Ruby in her journey - she definitely caught my attention with this episode and I'll be tuning in for the rest of the season to see how this story turns out.

Yes I watch Ruby. It is fascinating. The earlier episodes are just like any other diet. Diet, exercise, many people involved and now she is at a point of subconscious sabotage. I posted about her show the other day.
