Would It Be a Good Business to Set Up a Center Where Obese People Can Stay and Lose Weight?

Question by Caren: Would it be a good business to set up a center where obese people can stay and lose weight?
There must not be any of those. I’m watching a show called my life over 600 pounds,, and these people go through surgery,, (the learning channel at night)
it would be better if at least they could go to a center that limits food and requires individual excersise.
before the surgery,,, they are at home, with family giving them fattening food.

there must not be any such centers anywhere in the states
but yet, there are centers for drug rehab that you can stay for months at a time.
one lady had that surgery and stayed 3 months in a hospital (why not have centers)?
why not put them in a center for 3 months to teach them how to eat right and lose weight?
just like a drug rehab place,,, makes sense

Answer by michele
Psychologists do NOT initiate ANY type of treatment (“social integration”, “family investigation”or otherwise) without the express CONSENT of the patient. Under NO circumstances would this happen outside of a court order (obtaining such an order for involuntary treatment is a complex process – a process in which the patient him/herself would participate).

If you believe this is happening to you , it is HIGHLY LIKELY that you are suffering from a delusional disorder. A brief review of your other questions suggests that you may indeed be suffering from such a condition. It is not uncommon. The good news, is that it is TREATABLE.

Do You Beleive in “Sexual Addiction?”?

Question by Nuggets Baby: Do you beleive in “Sexual Addiction?”?
This question is based off of Tiger Woods and I’m sure that this question has been asked many times, but I am curious to see your answers.

Personally, I think this “sex addiction” is a sorry excuse for his cheating. I love sex. Almost everyone does. But there is a thing called self-control. No matter how much I wanna jump the bones of a hot guy at the gym, or get with a friend, if I have a boyfriend, I will be faithful to him. I have no problem with that either.

So, if someone cheats, are they considered with having a “sex addiction.”

I don’t know. I would love to hear your thoughts on this though. =]

Thanks

There is such thing, but I agree sex rehab is ridiculous.
