She hits the nail on the head with emotional eating - I have struggled with it for a long time so I am anxious to read this book and see if I can begin changing my approach/relationship to foodBooksnychttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11197753056299399065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-88957591923857943422011-04-08T09:49:05.244-04:002011-04-08T09:49:05.244-04:00Great review!

While parts of me want to celebrate the abandonza of life, other parts realize I need to exercise self control. Is that the reason I have the same number of points for a Permitter as a Restrictor? I hate being so equivocated, on the other hand...I love food which is bad for me and have to monitor it somewhat. On some days. ;)Bellezza https://www.blogger.com/profile/18073864187188953633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-55808804403916865262011-04-07T19:45:19.826-04:002011-04-07T19:45:19.826-04:00I suspect I am a permittee.

I was very overweight as well. Then I got diabetes, and everything changed. I am no longer able to eat that way, and I stick exclusively to a meal plan. It actually sounds a lot more boring than it is, because there are times when I can have a cupcake or ice-cream, and since my meal plan was designed by a nutritionist, I know I am getting what I need. I don't have all these issues with food, and have lost a lot of weight as well.Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05857638467064749190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-16354224969606065232011-04-06T23:42:34.288-04:002011-04-06T23:42:34.288-04:00I love this book... really started to free me from...I love this book... really started to free me from my dysfunctional relationship with food!<br /><br />BTW, Diane, I've decided to keep my blog, I'm going to not take any books for a long while, but am going to continue to post and contribute to the community.<br /><br />Thanks for you support, chicky!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05703297010445873719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-54599925692371751082011-04-06T23:03:22.701-04:002011-04-06T23:03:22.701-04:00These were my scores:
