 Reprograming the Overweight Mind (Interactive Audio CD)
ASIN: 096442410X
Customer's Rating: 5
Summary: Mind Over Matter
Comments: I really enjoyed Kelly Burris' audio book. I have been studying diet, nutrition, and exercise for 30 years, and Kelly's tenets ring true. There really wasn't anything I would disagree with in the book. We are powerful beings if we would just access that power of the mind. It doesn't have to be a difficult process to lose weight and be fit if you are committed to truly changing the way you think. This book can help you do this. I am sending a copy to a family member with a weight problem(really a mind problem--the weight is just the symptom) and hopefully she will be as excited by it as I am. I also enjoyed Kelly's voice--enthusiastic, positive, and supportive at the same time. Finally someone has written a book that gets to the crux of overweight issues. This book could change your life. I highly recommend it. I wish my sister would have read this book before she had gastric by-pass surgery to lose weight. Thank you Kelly Burris.

Summary: Stop Stuffing Yourself
Comments: Totally useless drivel...No new insights, and certainly not worth reading if you have an eating problem that's not caused by some remote childhood emotional disorder...Don't bother...

 Binge Breaker!: Stop Out-Of-Control Eating and Lose Weight
ASIN: 0446674419
Customer's Rating: 5
Summary: The one book that helped me.
Comments: I have read several books on the subject, searching for a way to break free of this. The problem is that many books adopt one of two approaches: either one designed for bulimics, which I am not, or a view that food is an addiction and certain foods must be avoided for life.
This book takes a sensible and, most importantly, very doable approach - it doesn't ask you to monitor in written form, which can be quite a chore, but rather works on making you aware of your eating style and then overhauling it. Gradually, eating is normalized and the former binge foods are introduced - without leading to binges for me! - so that your relationship with food slowly gravitates towards being "normal">
All in all, a great read, the one book that changed my life!

 Weight Watchers Weight Stages : Successfully Manage Your Weight Through Life's Ups and Downs
ASIN: 0028637054
Customer's Rating: 1
Summary: Weight Stages for WOMEN Only
Comments: Very disappointing. It's not until you get into the book and start reading do you find out that this book is geared for women only. Weight Watchers has always been geared towards women because that makes up the majority of their clientele, but there are many men who follow the program as well, and I find it at best thoughtless and at worst insulting to come out with gender-biased material, and to not even identify it as such!
