Frank Minirth (Author), Paul Meier (Author), Robert Hemfelt (Author), Sharon Sneed (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: February 1990

Based on the premise that overeating is linked to emotional and spiritual deprivations, Love Hunger begins with a relationship inventory that will help you understand how disappointments with your family, spouse, or self can result in obesity. It then provides a comprehensive program that helps identify whether or not you are using food as a substitute for love, career fulfillment, or friendship and shows you how to break that addiction. Once you begin dealing with the psychological basis for your eating problems, you'll be ready to lose weight healthfully, with a dietitian-designed food plan, that includes daily menus and recipes, as well as strategies for relapses, maintenance, motivation, and more. This is a complete plan for body, mind, and soul.

This review is from: Love Hunger (Paperback)

I discovered this book over 15 years ago. I don't know what I would think of it now, but then it really opened my eyes to why I was eating compulsively. In fact, it began a whole chain of events that eventually led to a different way of life.
