Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
As more and more Americans discover that crash diets and diet pills don't work, they are turning to self-help books that stress taking responsibility for one's weight and eating more healthily. Why Can't I Stop Eating? focuses on understanding how addictive substances, such as carbohydrates, sugar, and caffeine, react in the body. Danowski and Lazaro, a recovering food addict and a medical director of three addictions hospitals, respectively, believe that carbohydrate addiction is the main reason why 50 percent of Americans are overweight. The authors cite research illustrating physiological reasons for food cravings (especially carbohydrates) and downplaying the effectiveness of weight-loss drugs like Fen/Phen. They also provide exercises that clarify which foods trigger overeating and diets that emphasize low carbohydrate intake. Jeffrey and Norean Wilbert, a food therapist and a registered nurse, respectively, suggest that "fattitudes"Dself-defeating behavior that causes overeatingDare the main obstacles to maintaining ideal weight and present helpful exercises to identify them. This book's philosophy is that even people genetically prone to obesity have emotional (perhaps unconscious) reasons to be overweight. Because both of these titles are clearly written and will appeal to general readers, they are recommended for larger public libraries.DLeAnna DeAngelo, Springfield, MI

Principal author Debbie Danowski has maintained a 150-pound weight loss for 10 years by educating herself about specific food cravings, brain chemistry, hereditary factors, and the dynamics of addictive behavior. It's a personal story, but one grounded in first-rate research on how to manage compulsive eating. She approaches excessive eating as an addictive disorder and says that accepting this helps with the work of managing the moods, social situations, and other triggers that stimulate food cravings. Whether or not such a disease model of overeating fits your situation, this is a comprehensive look at food-intake issues that may lead to some fine-tuning of your own eating patterns. A worthwhile resource. T.W. © AudioFile 2001, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
