That's so weird! I just started a food diary this week and I've been working on a vision board too!

As for praise during therapy... I echo the above sentiments that it make me feel uncomfortable too. I feel like a 'little kid' obtaining approval from an authority figure. You know, like: "Good job sweetie! I knew you could do it!" And then you get pat on the head...

I remember when I told a p-doc of my upcoming career change and he kept smiling at me (he didn't do that very often) and telling me what a wonderful opportunity it would be-- it felt unauthentic in a way. He was making a bigger deal out of it than I was!
