Let
Go of Emotional Overeating and Love Your Food takes
a different look at dieting. Instead of a book having a diet
plan, this one looks at the behavioral reasons as to why someone
might be overeating and simple, straight forward steps on
how to change how someone eats. This books takes a five step
process where all of them focus on being aware of everything:
aware of yourself, your food, your emotions, and your surroundings.
Let
Go of Emotional Overeating and Love Your Food shares
examples from Englander’s own personal struggle with
overeating and several of her clients over the years. These
examples show how one’s past interacts with one’s
present and how they reacted in the past does not need to
be how one reacts now. The examples are relatable to almost
everyone which makes this behavioral look and change more
realistic then a simple diet plan. Englander clearly states
that she is not a nutritionist and does not offer much nutritional
advice other than what studies and experts have stated. Englander
takes a step and includes not just what food is sitting in
front of you but includes the importance of exercising and
water is in trying to create change.
Let
Go of Emotional Overeating and Love Your Food is a straight
forward look at how someone can change how their emotions
affect their eating and focus on the importance of food for
sustenance, not to make someone feel better. This reader feels
that most people will be able to relate and should take a
look if they feel that they want a different approach to how
to eat.
