Anne Katherine

Gurze Books, 1996

Put It All Together For Me

+ Food Addiction or Compulsive Eating
+ It Is Worth The Money

I have worked with eating issues for a long long time and I learned something so incredibly powerful from this book. I learned that when I binge, it's not because I'm weak, stupid, self destructive, etc. It is because I do not have enough support. That support for me usually means that I've been ...

Binge Breaker!(TM): Stop Out-of-Control Eating and Lose Weight7 reviews
Peter M. Miller

Grand Central Publishing, 1999

The one book that helped me.

+ Gives you hope
+ Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I have read several books on the subject, searching for a way to break free of this.
