Forget hyperbole. This book isn't a diet book, it's an explanation of how to change what's going on inside your body. Simple and easy to follow and remember eating rules. Understanding what's going on inside your body is a tremendous psychological boost to making good choices. It isn't preachy and actually works.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best healthy diet book ever, March 8, 2004

This review is from: Why Do You Overeat: When All You Want Is to Be Slim (Paperback)

This book is the first that I've ever read that finally tackles the questions about WHY you overeat and then gives sound, simple and practical advise on how to overcome your food cravings and lose weight quickly and safely. The author does this by tackling the three main conditions that will cause you to overeat.

Zoe's 'eating plan' (diet) is very practical, easy to follow and works - in the short and long term. I found it easy to lose weight and keep it off. I have recommended the book to many people and they've all found the diet easy to follow and they've all lost weight by following it.

There are very few rules to follow which makes it simple to understand and keep to. If you've ever suffered from being overweight or have uncontrollable food cravings, this book is for you. If you have to wait too long here, get a copy from the official website whydoyouovereat.com

5.0 out of 5 stars Intelligent and it works, April 19, 2008

This review is from: Why Do You Overeat?: When All You Want Is to Be Slim (Paperback)

This is not a diet book rather a tool to let you understand and choose what weight you want to be. I have a collection of perhaps 4-5 books and relative diets I have tried unsuccessfully and here I find something that actually works in a very different way, and it has not been difficult in the least.
The title is embarrassing, I must admit, and they could have chosen a color that doesn't stand out so much! But at the end of the day the author Zoe has done a great service - she herself having gone through many diets and finally realizing that we have to look at food disorders/obesity as a more complex process in which a lot of what you do is actually chemical process inside us which create addictions.
