5.0 out of 5 stars Changed My Life, July 25, 2000

By 

C. C. Lawhon (Malibu, CA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Only Diet There Is (Paperback)

If you are tired of fad diets and of worrying constantly about your weight, size, etc, READ THIS BOOK. This book changes the way we look at ourselves, what we eat, and why we eat it. It is intense and not like any other diet book you've ever known, but it works. I have had eating issues all my life and this book has made me happy with my body (and I lost weight too!). Now I am able to enjoy food again and I don't have to obsess about calories and fat or ratios or protein or special meals or anything else those fad diets kill you with. I can't explain it, but this got me out of the "diet mode" and into a true, loving view of myself and my food. It helps vegetarians, carnivores, and chocaholics. Basically, it took away my obsessive/compusive food habits and gave me peace of mind and the body I've always wanted. THANK YOU SONDRA RAY!

5.0 out of 5 stars THE BEST BOOK EVER WRITTEN, April 6, 2002

By 

Meg (Gold Coast, QLD Australia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Only Diet There Is (Paperback)

This is without doubt the best book ever written. I was at my heaviest weight at the age of 22. I weighed 90 kilograms, I was depressed, I hated life and thought that there was no hope of ever feeling good again. Then I stumbled across this book and thought here we go, yet another book to disappoint me. But as I flicked through it I realized there wasn't a single recipe or physical exercise of any kind. So I bought it out of curiosity. When I got home I read the book from cover to cover. Not only did I lose over 35 kilograms but I started living life again. Thank you Sondra Ray, you truley saved my life.

5.0 out of 5 stars A book for people who have tried every diet., August 23, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Only Diet There Is (Paperback)

I have tried every diet, low fat, high protien, all vegetarian, starvation, etc. I have been working out and lifting weights for years. Finally, someone has made the connection with how we feel about ourselves with how we are physically. Did you ever wonder why some people can eat whatever they want and never gain weight? Some people will tell you it's because they have a fast metabolism. Well, this may be true, but how do you get a fast metabolism? Or maybe it's because they don't associate eating with being fat. And maybe they don't hate themselves for every morsel that goes into their mouths, and maybe they aren't afraid of food, and maybe they don't even think about it! This book shows you how you can rebuild your relationship with yourself and food so that you are no longer afraid to eat and how to learn to love yourself now and forever.
