Book Description

Publication Date: July 2002

Attention Emotional Eaters and Chronic Dieters!

Simply knowing what to eat and how to exercise does not guarantee permanent weight loss. Most dieters fail to keep the weight off because they never deal with the emotional and psychological obstacles. As long as these issues are ignored, long-term weight loss is doubtful. A healthy nutrition plan will not be followed as long as you are an emotional eater. Likewise, a gym membership will gather dust as long as you do not learn how to deal with your excuses. If you want to lose weight and keep it off, you must first conquer the psychological roadblocks that stand in your way. This revolutionary book help you get off the weight loss roller coaster for good.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Have For Dieters!, January 11, 2003

This review is from: Conquer Emotional Eating (Paperback)

This book is tremendously powerful and the information provided can change your life, provided you actually put it to use instead of using it as a tray to rest your Super Size French Fries. I started doing the exercises and didn't stop. I've never read a "self-help" book that I didn't get totally bored with after the first chapter. I have a much better understanding of why I continue my bad habits and why I failed in the past. I have a much better understanding of my body and my emotions. Thanks for such an eye-opening and informative book. I hope there is more to come from Dr. Hall!

5.0 out of 5 stars New and Deeper Understanding, March 20, 2003

This review is from: Conquer Emotional Eating (Paperback)

A coworker urged me to buy and read this book. Wow! The truth sure can set you free. Seeing things for what they are - understanding why I act and think like I do - gave me the knowledge I needed to make some positive changes. I was enlightened about why I do some of the things I do and had some tools to change myself. Like my coworker, I suggest getting this book by Dr. Hall. You can have a new outlook on life & losing weight and start immediately to improve how you act and how you think and feel about yourself.

This review is from: Conquer Emotional Eating (Paperback)

This book helped me uncover and deal with a number of psychological and emotional roadblocks that I was previously unaware of. The book is well-organized and helped me deal with my emotional eating and excuses. It really helped me think about the real reasons I wasn't losing weight. It helped me get a grip on my eating.
