Why wouldn't you see an oncologist battling cancer?  That would make them twice as good, in my opinion.  Cancer is not a behavior.[/quote]

I think this PP is arguing that you would see an oncologist battling cancer, so you should also see a trainer with an eating disorder (if you interact well and trainer is knowledgeable and willing to help you).

I, like most other PPs, disagree.  I can see that the person with the eating disorder might know a great deal about nutrition and simply be unable to apply that knowledge to herself (or himself).  But on an anonymous board, you're asking would I put my health in the hands of someone who appears unhealthy.  And the answer is I would not.

I would see an oncologist who had cancer.  As you say, cancer is not a behavior.  Would I see a counselor with anxiety/depression?  If it was obvious, I probably would not.  [/quote]
