Thanks KML! Luckily for her I am a therapist. I know that her eating disorder is just a symptom of what's really going on. I also know that there is an Eating Disorder clinic in the town that she just moved to; the ONLY one in the state. One of my stipulations for this agreement is that she get the appropriate help and actually stick with it this time. I may not be able to ensure or prove that she has been going, but if she can't even name one therapist in that town when asked about, all deals are off.
I know this sounds controlling, and I really don't like doing this, but this is the lesser of 2 evils at this point. If this can be used as motivation and incentive for her to get better then great! If not then it will be a very sad time for her.
I guess we'll see what happens on the road ahead. I want her to succeed, but ultimately that ball is in her court.
