We have a wonderful son who is 27 with Aspergers who we are incredibly proud of for so many reasons
He is extremely intelligent and capable and Talented in so many ways, went to Uni and gained a Degree, and got excellent academic grades
He has a job which he enjoys and is ideally suited to working from home but does not earn enough to live independently & lives with us, his parents
He has had a problem with his eating habits and has put on weight for some years and his weight has recently ballooned in the past 3 years
He (like many) has suffered from depression & takes anti-depressants & has struggled like so many during lockdown
He is desperate for some help but NOT from us as his parents
He knows he is eating the wrong things & this and quantity/Portion sizes are the main issues
Despite his many strengths - due to his Aspergers he is very much a creature of habits and breaking these is proving one of the biggest obstacles
He (like we) is very worried about his weight but he lacks the motivation and self confidence to break out of his bad habits
He has now asked us to help him which is a great step forwards but we need help from a Professional who understands his condition and can help?
We live in Surrey, and if there is anyone who can give us some ideas we would be so grateful.
Many thanks
