Hi everyone. Long time no chat hey. Well I am back after a longer than intended break. I wanted to thank all of you that contributed to my thesis that looked at whether the quality of our attachments to others impacts on our weight. Our results indicated that there were in fact some differences in obese women that were not apparent in non-obese women. Dysfunctional attachment seemed to play an important role for obese women. This may suggest that problematic early relationships with parents can contribute to obesity in later life. We are currently in the process of writing an article and if it does get published, I will be happy to post the link here for anyone who is interested. But once again, I would like to offer my sincere thanks to everyone who participated. I got a fabulous response to my survey, purely because the people on here are so genuinely warm and helpful. Thank you all.
