From the Inside Out Survey

Anonymous Survey on Food Behaviors & Weight Struggles

Hi there,  I need your help!  
I am asking for willing volunteers to participate in an anonymous survey about food issues and weight struggle.  I need ALL kinds of responses from every type of participant... whether or not you've ever struggled, personally, with any kind of food or weight issue.  Even your perceptions about weight and food struggles are important to my research.  
All I ask is that you only take the survey ONE time, and that you answer as honestly and completely as you're able.  Please be direct and forthcoming in your responses; Speak truthfully -- without fear or concern about "social norms" -- knowing that your responses are completely anonymous.  I will not know who answered what, or even who, specifically, participated in the survey.  So, go ahead... be brutally honest.  Just keep it clean, okay?  
Thank you for your time and assistance.
Thank you for agreeing to complete this survey!  Whether or not you have struggled with food issues, weight struggles, or eating disorders, your answers are very important to me.  Please try to answer as honestly as you can, and only answer for yourself, not for anyone else.  All responses are valid and will be included in my reports.
The results of this survey will be used for research for my book.  

All participation in this quiz should be completely voluntary and without expectation of compensation.

This survey includes 21 selectable-answer questions and one, optional "open comment" box.  Rest assured: your answers are completely anonymous and will only be disclosed in bulk data reports (percentages, graphs, etc.) with no personally-identifying remarks about individual participants.  Indeed, the way this survey is set up, I won't even know who has participated, I will only receive a report of all, combined responses upon completion.  Therefore, I ask you to please complete this survey only ONCE, so as not to skew my data. Thanks so much!

I hope you will take a moment to help me with this research for my book and to better assist me with my ministry to those struggling with food addiction.
