Finally, someone who understands Me
For once a book that is NOT about themselves but ABOUT Me and everyone else like me. This covers everything. I feel like I am reading about myself. I believe I will finally understand myself and learn how to take care of myself. Maybe I will not want foods that aren't good for my body. I recommend this book to everyone who is struggling with weight loss & closet eating like myself. If you really want to lose the weight and keep it off and no longer be a closet eater - READ THIS BOOK. I'm so glad I purchased it.

Take comfort in self-understanding (rather than in food!)
I always take a deep breathe before looking at a new book on controlling compulsive urges ... expecting either to be lectured at, made to feel guilty, or told a simple formula doomed to fail! Denise's book is very different and refreshing. The answer is not "less," but more: insight and healthy pleasures, as we learn to comfort ourselves in deeper and more longlasting ways.

One of the best.....
After reading Denise's book, I've applied many of the wonderful self loving points as part of a daily recovery system. I can now put to rest the time I've spend searching for just the right book to help put me in a world where I could "tame my chew". I highly recommend this to anyone who has struggled with or knows someone with an eating disorder, or similiar tendencies. Denise has done an extremely wonderful job of putting things in perspective.
