Emotional Eater's Inspiration book

I read this book when I am feeling depressed on my weight-loss program. It really helps me when I want to over-indulge. The author mentions something about having a ring that she wears all the time. I bought an inexpensive ring to wear. Whenever I start getting depressed I look at my ring and it reminds me of my goals. The author has a lot of good tips and I recommend this book. She was obese at one time and lost the weight.

Just take it one day at a time

I have gotten so much out of this little book. It certainly breaks through the lies I tell about food. I really am glad I purchased and read this book, a little mad- but glad.

Thank you Debbie

I am a big, big fan of Debbie and her books. This author's books have been instrumental in changing my life. I have read each one over and over again and each time, I get something new out of it. The Emotional Eater's Book of Inspiration is unique in that it tackles many of the "myths" that the dieting and non-dieting worlds have "put out there". One of the biggest problems with emotional eating is the games and the denial that the disease plays with us. This book cuts right through all of that and gives us an honest and sometimes hard look at our realities. I am on my third reading of this book. I bring it along with me, along with Debbie's Overeaters Journal, and refer to is often during the day. This author has been there - while she is a PHD, she has also lived the private h ---- that is compulsive overeating and her sympathy, love and understanding shines through. If you feel you may have a problem with food or know that you do, buy yourself the best Christmas gift - buy this book. Then, sit down and slowly read it. Once you have done that, go back and read all of Debbie's other books - they will change your life! Thank you Debbie.
