A Permanent Solution

It's really wonderful to see a book that offers an intelligent approach to permanent weightloss, that explains why diets don't work and offers solutions.

We eat, in many cases, to stop the pain. We learned this most basic food instinct in infancy, and we've refined the concept of pain to include physical and emotional pain. It is really helpful to understand that when you are nervous, you grab something to eat, in part, because one of your oldest memories is of feeling better after your bottle.

And when you understand that years of eating has programmed us to know that food equals relief and comfort, then it's easy to understand why we return to that behavior in times of stress. Fortunately, in this book, you will learn how to change those behaviors by identifying the specific stressor-prompts that cause you to over-eat, and how to disempower them.

This is a powerful must-read book for anyone who wants to lose weight.

Puts It Together

This is a great book to help you really understand your specific triggers for emotional eating. I have found it especially helpful when used with his online course which you can find on his website.

The course adds substantially to personalizing my experience. I was at a party the other day and it was so clear what the dynamics were that would cause me to overeat as I'd read the book and also gone through practice scenarios of my own on the online course.

I've read tons of books like this - this one was by far the best. Read Water with Lemon by Zonya Foco (Water With Lemon: An Inspiring Story of Diet-free, Guilt-free Weight Loss!) either before or after and also The Craving Cure(The Craving Cure) and The Right Weigh by Rena Greenberg (The Right Weigh: Six Steps to Permanent Weight Loss) - they really helped me put my emotional eating in perspective spiritually, emotionally, and with a practical approach.

It's really working well for me, thank goodness. Used by More Than 100,000 PeopleASIN:0071477365 Lickety-Split Meals: For Health Conscious People on the Go!

Excellent! By far one of the most influential books I've read.

I first saw Dr Gould on my favorite local morning news show and I was impressed with him and the facts and information he spoke of in regards to "true" weight control. I have been struggling with losing 20lbs for at least 2 yrs and something clicked when I saw him that morning --I knew he spoke the truth. I guess I always knew it was me and my thought patterns, that was contributing to my eating & weight issues. I only did not know the path to take to make successful changes in my life and my health. So I ordered his book the following week and have been literally in awe in how poignant and precise the information is. It really hits home. I had many 'ah-ha' moments, and continue to re-read it as I tackle my eating habits with new insight.

Breakthrough!

Italian and jewish parents and grandparents and wonderful cuisine ensured stuffing my face for the good life and good moods. The idea was to leave the table unable to eat more! NOT GOOD! Dr. Gould made the connection for me between a sense of emotional well being and gluttony. Broke the habit painlessly! Less time working it off in the gym. Lower blood pressure! Terrific breakthrough for all of us who love food and robust eating.

Good insight as to why you may overeat

Book provides good insight as to why you may overeat, or eat too much of the wrong things. Most useful to me has been the point about pausing before you eat to think about why you are eating. At the end of the day though, as with most diets or programs that purport to aid with weight loss or management, the effort is up to the individual.
