Diets Don't Work: Healing the Cycles of Yo-Yo Dieting and Emotional Overeating!

by Rebecca Cooper

Many people with yo-yo dieting, binge eating, disordered eating, or food addictions could write books on nutrition and diets. We know the calorie count, fat grams, and carbohydrates of every bite we take. We have more knowledge of food composition than most people. The problem is that we cannot put that knowledge into long-term practice. Eventually we hit the hidden blocks that have prevented us from attaining our goals. The stuffed feelings and issues surface and we return to our old way of coping food and the obsessive thoughts of food, weight, diet, and body image. The answer to the problem and the healing that needs to take place are both internal. External forms of control can not be the solution! These results last only temporarily. There is a way to get off this merry-go-round and live life free of dieting and maintain your ideal weight. This book contains a proven, step-by-step program to heal the unconscious blocks behind disordered eating. Readers are led through a process of Self discovery and healing that makes it possible to naturally eat when hungry, make healthy food choices, and stop when full--permanently. This innovative program has successfully being used by treatment centers, therapists, and clients.

About the author

Rebecca Cooper leads a small town life in Alberta, Canada, with her husband Randal and their three children Emily, Carson and Addie.

She has always been a scrapbooker at heart, but the 'obsession' she now has with her hobby began officially in 2002 when she first became a mom. Since that time, scrapbooking has inched its way into her heart, changed her everyday perspective, and almost completely taken over the small office in her home.

Rebecca is a photographer and serves as a contributing editor for Simple Scrapbooks magazine. She is an avid reader, loves chocolate (a lot!), and is always game for a long afternoon nap.
