The Inside Scoop on Eating Disorder Recovery

Advice from Two Therapists Who Have Been There

By: Colleen Reichmann PSYD, Jennifer Rollin LCSW-C

Narrated by: Anna Caputo

The Inside Scoop on Eating Disorder Recovery is a fresh, smart, how-to book that helps people with eating disorders to heal their relationship with food, their bodies, and ultimately themselves.

Written from the perspective of two eating disorder therapists, both of whom are recovered from their own eating disorders, this book uses humor, personal narratives, and research-proven techniques to offer specific actionable guidelines on how to reclaim one's life from an eating disorder. The authors explain the difference between dieting and eating disorders, break down the stages of recovery, and provide tips on how to thrive in each stage. The book provides powerful myth-busting on topics that have historically not been addressed in eating disorder recovery books, such as clean eating and orthorexia, exercising in recovery, and fat positivity. Tangible exercises at the end of each chapter provide listeners with advice and tips on implementing this approach to recovery in their day-to-day lives.

The humorous and down-to-earth tone of the book creates an authentic and genuine feel that leaves those who struggle with chronic dieting, eating disorders, and negative body image feeling connected and heard.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Real, honest

This was a great find. As someone currently struggling with an eating disorder (of 20+ years), it was so refreshing to hear professionals my age talk so openly and matter-of-fact about the good and bad points of recovery. The honesty is refreshing.

Useful for patient and professional

I really like Coleen and Jennifer’s perspective on eating disorder recover. Great information and presented in a caring a funny manner. Would recommend.

the whole book!!

Emphasis on Self acceptance, author's personal experience ! Positive approach, identification of "fat shaming" and unrealistic physical role models for women !

Eye opening

My daughter recommended this book. It is a must read, even you don’t think you have an eating disorder. It’s also super helpful if you have a loved one with an eating disorder.
