From the beginning, Geneen Roth was told she was too sensitive, too emotional, too curious, too demanding, too intense, and too big. Yet gaining and losing weight for decades did not improve her self-worth or reduce other people's criticisms. Like most women who struggle with their weight, she believed that if she could resolve what seemed to be the source of her self-hatred - how and what she ate - she would be thin, happy, and free. That belief, she discovered, was false.

Brain over Binge provides both a gripping personal account and an informative scientific perspective on bulimia and binge eating disorder. The author, Kathryn Hansen, candidly shares her experience as a bulimic and her alternative approach to recovery. Brain over Binge is different from other eating disorder books which typically present binge eating and purging as symptoms of complex emotional and psychological problems.

I’m missing out on my life. What’s wrong with me? If that’s ever crossed your mind, and if you know there’s more to life than what you’ve been living, this audiobook is for you. It sucks to acknowledge that you are what’s keeping you from the life you want. You sacrifice what you want most for what you want in the moment. You know everything you’re supposed to do, and yet you feel stuck - limited by your past, overwhelmed by your future - in a purgatory of your own behavior.

> Intuitive Eating is the go-to book on rebuilding a healthy body image and making peace with food. We’ve all been there - angry with ourselves for overeating, for our lack of willpower, for failing at yet another diet. But the problem isn’t us; it’s that dieting, with its strict rules, keeps us from listening to our bodies. Written by two prominent nutritionists, Intuitive Eating will teach you how to reject diet mentality forever; how our three eating "personalities" define our eating difficulties; how to find satisfaction in your eating; and much, much more.

Sixty-eight percent of Americans have dieted at some point in their lives. But upwards of 90 percent of people who intentionally lose weight gain it back within five years. And as many as 66 percent of people who embark on weight-loss efforts end up gaining more weight than they lost. If dieting is so clearly ineffective, why are we so obsessed with it? The culprit is diet culture, a system of beliefs that equates thinness to health and moral virtue, promotes weight loss as a means of attaining higher status, and demonizes certain ways of eating while elevating others.

Another amazing book by Geneen Roth
Thank you, Geneen Roth! What you are teaching is life-changing! For those of you who are considering whether to purchase the book or not, I have two questions for you to ask yourself that will make your decision easy. “Am I committed to practice what this book teaches me?” and “Am I committed to practicing it not once or twice, but as long as I become really good at it?” The book will not fix your issues. Your openmindness and your willingness to practice what it teaches will. Keep in mind though that it is not about how to achieve a certain destination. It is about enjoying your journey all the way. Even Geneen admits that she still has those times when she notices that she has put on weight. But the way she deals with it is now different. Instead of beating herself up for gaining weight, she faces the problem with compassion and curiosity by asking, “Ok. What’s going on here?” and leans into her feelings instead of running away from them. That’s is the only way I know to truly heal. And guess what? When you look at the feeling and allow it to happen, don’t resist, run away, or stuff it with food, you will find out that it is not as scary as you thought. It is actually there to protect you. It’s your ally. It’s like a frightened animal. It gets defensive and tries to look scary in order you to scare you, in order for you to leave it alone and go away. But the truth is, that animal is even more scared as you are and is just trying to protect itself. With your feelings, they want to protect you. Allow them to occur and they will calm down. I know we are all different, but I sincerely hope that this book will help you gain lots of insights just like it helped me. If I were you, I would give it a try. Even if it doesn’t work for you, at least you will be able to put a check mark next to its name and feel better knowing that you gave it a chance, you are trying different approaches and will keep looking for and - I know - will find what works for you. I wish you well.
