I find working with a good nurse practitioner much more helpful than with a doctor. Many doctors really don't want to deal with behaviors/underlying issues and tend to look at numbers and assume things (in my opinion and experience). I know it is hard to find a good practitioner and I know it is a pain to go and see someone who isn't the right fit, and then to go try someone else. It is really hard to get over seeing a bad health professional.
I guess I'm not really answering your question, but I am sympathetic. I would like to learn more about intuitive eating. I have heard of the book. Are you involved in group/do you go to conferences? I have a hard time allowing myself to eat normal foods when I am "being good." (to put it in my minds's unhealthy terms)
