5.0 out of 5 stars Nourishment for the soul!!, 17 Jul 1997
By A Customer
To say this book can change a life is an understatement. Geneen Roth helps us (overweight or not) make sense of the emptiness in the pit of our stomachs. With her insight we can start the process of not only understanding but accepting ourselves. I think one of the hardest things to learn is how to love oneself unconditionally. Our society tells us how to look, act, and feel. Geneen helps teach us how to accept what we see in the mirror and not to hold our happiness for the day when we are ...beautiful ...rich ...famous ...loved or whatever your hang up is. Thank You Geneen!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A must read for anyone who struggles with dieting!, 9 Oct 1998
By A Customer
Reading this book and exploring the issues addressed helped to lead me back to the time before I worried so much about my body. Geneen expertly uncovers our tendencies to use food as a substitute and a weapon for punishment. I feel more relaxed about myself and my weight than I have since junior high school! I am finally reaching my normal weight naturally and it is like a dream!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Audio Cassettes, 16 Feb 1998
By A Customer
I read the book and have listened repeatedly to the audiotapes. Some topics are expanded upon in the tapes, and the set concludes with an interview with Geneen Roth which is probing and fascinating to those of us struggling with body issues, the victim stance, and what we are here in this life to "do". She addresses the first reviewer's concern about her credibility as someone who has had many dreams come true and to whom the talk comes easily...I truly think that is not the point. Rather, it is the "hollowness" of having any dream come true and we can all relate to that! What are we looking for beyond the things that we dream about? The has been an important sounding board for me in my own search for meaning.
