Editorial Reviews:

For most Americans weight = quality of life. We all have a compelling desire:
a) To feel vital and energetic
b) To feel attractive and desirable
c) To be able to participate in whatever activities we want
d) To feel secure that our physical profile is healthy

Yet despite the fact that 52 million Americans are on a diet, they invest $40 billion/year in diet products, and run up a $110 billion annual tab in health related costs, 2 out of 3 Americans are considered overweight. The End of Diets offers:

#1 An analysis of why, for an emotional eater, traditional weight loss approaches, such as exercise, diets, external motivation, and will power, are conclusively ineffective. This analysis explains why only 3% of anyone that attempts a traditional weight loss approach is successful in keeping the weight off long-term.

#2 – A thorough explanation of how an emotional eater uses food to deal with the ups and downs of life.

#3 – Insight into how emotions are process in the body.

#4 – An explanation of the top emotions that lead to overeating.

#5 – Explanations of how emotional eaters must first learn to be with their emotions instead of eating through them, before they can be successful in losing weight permanently.

#6 – Useful tools for emotional eaters to stop using food to cope with the ups and downs of life:
a) Understand how food is used as a repression mechanism to avoid our emotions
b) How to develop the body awareness to recognize the emotional hunger
c) Recognize the body sensations behind the emotional hunger.
d) Learn how to be with the feeling until they dissipate and stop manifesting as emotional hunger.
#7 – A long-term plan to be successful in loosing the weight once and for all.

Summary: very good book
Comment: This is a very comprehensive approach to emotional eating which I am starting. For me, discipline is tough at times. This book provides a lot of good simple and helpful discussion of issues with a defined program of making progress one day at a time. If you expect to buy this book, get the answers and move on - don't waste your money. If you think you are worth the investment of time and care - and you are - then get this book. Be prepared it will take time. This would be a great book for two people to buddy up with or a small group.
I do recommend the book - just like most everything else - this book will give you what you put into it - and it does have some good steps (although I don't agree with all of them). I am going to be looking for a buddy - i might even start a small group to work through together.

Godspeed and know that YOU ARE WORTH THE TIME AND CARE!

Summary: Good for More than Diets
Comment: I don't use food to address difficult emotions; rather, I am dependent on nicotine. It was easy to read this book and substitute nicotine for food. I believe this book deals with the cause for emotional eating and probably overuse of any substance. I'm using her approach and withn a short time my nicotine dependence reduced. I am hopeful that I will soon be able to accept my emotions and be emotionally independent.

Summary: outstanding
Comment: In reading "The End of Diets", I found it so refreshing that someone had written about eating from a personal voice that really spoke to me. I have read countless books on eating and dieting and they all say the same thing, but this one actually explains WHY we eat and what tools are at our disposal to finally, finally, finally eradicate the behavior for life.

I have read "The End of Diets" several times and each time I get something new from it, it has literally changed my life. Because of its insight I have been doing yoga for over a year now and have not been on a "diet" for the first time since I was 12 years old. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is on that roller coaster of dieting and constantly looking for that book that is going to "be the one" that is going to help them.

Summary: Excellent content needs serious editing
Comment: I got a lot from de la Altagracia's heartfelt guide to healing emotional eating, both as a professional counselor and on a personal level. It is a shame that this book suffers from a lack of editing with grammatical errors and awkward phrasing throughout.
Some of the author's suggestions are familiar and one could dismiss this book as nothing new, however de la Altagracia brings a deeply felt commitment to her process of healing the pattern of "eating through emotions". She succeeds in engaging the reader on a personal, not just intellectual level.
I appreciate the integration of body-awareness and body work into the book's program. The author's approach synthesizes cognitive, emotional, and body-centered methods into a multi-modal strategy. She also provides a simplified explanation of the myriad of diet options currently vying for attention.
De la Altagracia emphasizes the life-long nature of the healing journey, instilling hope and realism.

Summary: finally someone looks past the food
Comment: when i first started to read this book i felt it was going to be someone's success story and that if you did this and that it would work. luckily i kept going past my judgement and allowed myself to hear my excuses and my fears and my past wanting me to stay fat, that has allowed me to stop dieting and just start being, not doing anything but slowly allowing myself to just sit with myself and learn about myself that i wasn't willing to look at and love before. i don't think i will lose weight quickly, but i think i will finally be able to have a balanced control over food.
