This book describes an approach to weight loss that has helped many people otherwise stranded by failed diets and exercise routines. The theme behind this approach is that to become a permanently thinner and healthier version of yourself on the outside, you must also become a thinner and healthier version of yourself on the inside. This means that changing your values, thinking habits, and character are necessary to achieve the body that you want, not just what you eat. Although there are thousands of weight loss diets and exercise programs available to us today, none of these programs work long-term until the person using them develops the weight loss psychology necessary to make changes last. This book will help you become a version of yourself that can achieve lasting changes in your weight while also raising the quality of your life. But this isn't a quick fix. Becoming a person capable of long-term changes in weight requires a sustained commitment to personal growth. In an American culture dominated by short-term weight loss strategies, The Psychology of Eating approach will not appeal to everyone. However, seeing a growing number of people over my career fed up with the limited results of standard diet and exercise programs, I believe that there is a growing quorum who recognize that a fundamentally different approach to weight loss is required. This book is for them.
