Does this describe you?
-You eat when you are not hungry
-You often have negative thoughts about
your body
-You spend a lot of time waiting to be
“thin enough’
-You use food for emotional comfort
-You know diets don’t work, but don’t
know what to do instead
Although Beyond a Shadow of a Diet
was written with therapists in mind, this book is reader-friendly for anyone struggling with food and weight issues. Disordered eating and dieting are extremely common in our culture as evidenced by
the number of consumers who yearly support a $50 billion diet industry. In 2000,
the number of American males and females dieting to lose weight or maintain weight totaled nearly 116 million representing
about 55% of the total adult population. With more that half of the population
dieting at any given time, the cultural norm has shifted to a point where riding the diet roller coaster, and experiencing
body dissatisfaction and shame is the common experience for many.
This book will teach you how to:
-Understand and break the cycle of yo-yo
dieting
-Identify and eat from physiological hunger
-Feel calm around food
-Build a positive body image
-Find new ways to manage feelings without
food
IMAGINE THE FREEDOM!
