From the Back Cover:
The numbers of obese people and those with related eating disorders have risen dramatically in the US over the past several years. Being overweight is a major health concern, and more and more professionals are being trained to deal with public health, fitness, and health risks associated with obesity. This is not another "how to lose weight book." Instead, it is very user-friendly, fun, and visually appealing. It features a behavior modification system designed to help anyone struggling with body weight issues establish permanent, healthy weight management behaviors. Designed to be interactive, the author does an excellent job of establishing trust with the readers while guiding them through various self-reflection techniques. Each chapter helps readers overcome a specific obstacle that prevents them from maintaining healthy behaviors. Topics include: the non-diet diet, habits, compulsive behaviors, emotional eating, self esteem, and more. This book is ideal for regardless of whether they're overweight, normal weight, anorexic, or bulimic. Also appropriate for nutritionists, dietitians, social workers, and therapists.
