The creation of the Catching Point Transformation (CPT) represents 10 years of training, research, and development to design something real that would cut through all of the smoke and mirrors. That could be given away to BAE patients as complementary therapy, and to the public as an option free from marketing translation. It follows from years of interaction personally and professionally with failing dieters and their seemingly endless desperation and frustration, as well as his own personal struggle with weight loss.
