About this ebook
As anyone who has ever been on a diet knows, they simply don't work. No one can diet indefinitely and, once you stop, the weight simply piles back on. Eating Less is not about dieting; instead, it places the emphasis where it belongs, on healthy eating and eating less.
This revised and updated edition offers you a unique and inspiring solution to overeating: its aim is to look at thoughts and beliefs about food, unravel the mind's addictive impulses, and retrain it to have a more healthy, balanced relationship with food. It introduces you to practical techniques that you can apply in your daily life; it shows you how to set your own limits without feeling deprived and becoming rebellious; and it gives you the ability to develop greater control by helping you to overcome addictive behaviour. So simply follow Eating Less and see your weight fall off and stay off.
'Eating Less is likely to succeed where diet books fail. The utter simplicity of its message and techniques makes it easy to start and continue with a programme that revolutionises your attitude to eating and weight.' Sarah Litvinoff

Starts off great but unfortunately I found myself quickly losing interest the more the book went on. I found its more of a book about addiction and self-esteem than over eating and tended to find myself disagreeing with some of the content. There are some really useful nuggets of information but the rest of the chapters seem to be bulked out with waffle.

A whole new approach. This is NOT any sort of diet, so don't assume there is a any sort of calorie counting or recipes. This approaches the problem of overeating at its source - treating the problem instead of the symptoms.
