1.0 out of 5 stars Very disappointed - didn't work for me, 14 Oct 2002

By A Customer

This book didn't tell me anything I didn't already know about why I eat compulsively. I was looking for a solution which this book sadly did not provide. After 12 weeks of revolting and useless self guided exercises such as eating whilst looking in the mirror, drawing diagrams, having role plays with myself and completing food diaries I was even more fed up. The gist of the authors solution is to train yourself to overcome the part of you that wants to eat to comfort yourself (the child within)by making your (adult within)stronger. Sounds easy and makes sense I thought. The book advocates continuously talking to yourself to achieve this. It might work in a group situation but it did nothing for me, except make me go on an eating binge of disappointment.

5.0 out of 5 stars A truly helpful book!, 3 Feb 2001

By A Customer

I have read several books on the subject. This one is different. Marilyn Migliore is a witty, compassionate woman and a great writer, as well as someone who knows what she is talking about. Her "journey" is backed by psychiatric research, so if you are tired of "alternative" and weird approaches, you will find this book makes sense. She helps explain why exactly you resort to food when overwhelmed by feelings and how you can actually stop using food this way. Her approach is not simplistic (like others who suggest eating a carrot when craving for chocolate!) and the book is a pleasure to read. A large part of it comprises of exercises which I found very helpful. I have not finished my 12 weeks yet, but I already feel I am really making progress. If you are suffering from overeating, give this book a shot.

5.0 out of 5 stars It works! I highly recommend it!, 9 Feb 1999

By A Customer

I highly recommend this book for anyone who is ready to lose the weight, but is unsure about how to go about doing it permanently. I have tried dieting over the course of my life, but it works only temporarily. I learned the methods to lose the weight permanently on this proven program. I started this program in October 1997 at 285, lost 80 pounds and am now at 205 (Feb 99), within a short distance of my goal weight. But, the beauty of it all is that I KNOW that I will never put it back on again, for the first time in my life! This program provides the understanding of why we overeat and provides a road map to recovery. If you are ready to lose the weight permanently, I highly recommend buying this book and giving the writing exercises a try. The results are often times unexpected and highly enlightening. Give it a try, what have you got to lose, other than some unhealthy weight!

I didn't find this book useful at all, perhaps because it seemed to overemphasise looking back at your childhood. Read more
