Geneen is just great. She gives advice from a been there and done that kinda girl friends way.
It is clear and helpful. this and her other books are highly recommended and she gives you a clear way to go, but you choose in the end. You are the boss.

I did not find this book to have any "solutions." It was simply the usual self-help book which never goes to the root of any problem.
Finally No More Diets! June 28, 2006

I love this book. I'm actually still doing the exercises in the book. I believe there are almost 90 exercises. Geneen requires you dig deep. The first few days of doing the work, I was a mess. I have used food to not deal with my emotions for so many years, that it actually brought me back to my emotional self as a teenager. My first diet started when I was 15 at 102 pounds! I had went over that 100 pound mark then, started my first diet, and never dealt with my emotions after that unless it involved food. I'm almost 40 years old now and thought this vicious cycle would never end. The more I dieted and deprived myself, the more I weighed in the end.
My mom told me about Geneen Roth when I was in my early twenties and she stopped dieting then and never struggled with food since, but I couldn't give up that the next diet would be the miracle that I needed! I was at most lowest point recently and read another book of Geneen's 'When Food Is Love.' I was hooked! That book was a great read, but this allows you to do the work.
I've finally given up the word 'diet' in my vocabulary, in my life.

This book is not what I expected. It's more of a "workbook" instead of a book to read. I was thoroughly disappointed.
A Life-Transforming Experience April 30, 2003
40 out of 40 found this review helpful
Having struggled with an eating disorder for the past 10 years of my life, I was certain that I would never have a healthy relationship with food again. But, then a good friend gave me Geneen's book, and I have not looked back since on those doubtful thoughts. This is a truely incredible program that, when followed and supplemented with Geneen's books "When Food Is Love" and "Feeding the Hungry Heart", can and will take the word "diet" out of your vocabularly forever. I have never felt better about myself and have never actually lost weight while still eating anything I wanted.
