“This book can pin point your eating problem in under a minute and the fact that the author is so relatable makes it much more enjoyable.
This book is about eating, even if it is compulsive or a binge eating problem. It shows you that you are not alone in the battle of not eating that damn cookie.
The premise of this book is really simple: ditch the counting kcals, ditch the scale for a while, eat when you are hungry, no food is bad food.
Kinda disagree. Eat only when you are hungry is good advice but if you want to be healthy too eat only proper foods, basically nothing processed.
"Diets do not give you the option of eating frozen peas and mashed potatoes when you are lonely. Diets, based on caloric consumption, do not leave the room for being lonely. Or sad or angry or joyful. Diets exclude our psychological and emotional needs by assuming that we are going to feel the same way about ourselves, our relationships, our lives, on day one as on day six. Diets exclude all feelings except for those of wanting to be thin. Diets remove from us one of the few characteristics that distinguishes us from other animals – choice."
Another interesting quote from the book is:
"A woman in my group said, : I am amazed to discover that after forty years of bingeing on sugar, when I let myself eat what I want, I don’t even like the taste of sweets."
This book is based more on the healing part of your eating journey, like forget and forgive and that’s ok if you search for that. It doesn’t have proper facts and a to do list on how to achieve the body you want to become. But it’s worth reading for the women who tell their story throughout this lecture, including the author. It is a book for the soul and to that level it help you, helps you calm your nerves for awhile until you are ready to step up and show up for yourself on a daily basis.”
