"Women Food and God" - author Geneen Roth

Sep 01, 2010

Although I haven't completely abandoned all my other weight loss efforts, I've recently been going in a different direction with my introspection (psychologically and perhaps spiritually as well).  I've mentioned this book before, but I decided to explore it more thoroughly and even pruchased a few more of her titles.

The most recent and perhaps the most life altering, has been, "Breaking Free From Emotional Eating".  If you havne't read it or heard of it, I highly suggest you read it before going under the knife!  I found it so intriguing that I wrote out an outline of the entire book...bullet points that I think are intriguing and worth keeping nearby when I take notes on the second read.  This particular book explores the dynamics of emotional eating and gives deliberate and construcive steps to be aware of why and how you eat.  It's been miind blowing for me!!

My weight had recently spiralled up to 224 and I am currently back down to 210...in only 3 weeks!!  Why?  Because I took the time to ask myself a key question, "Am I Hungry"?

There is so much more to be learned from this process, but I do bellieve I am on the way to a healther weight.  Not because I found some magic bullet, but because I am taking the time to look at what I'm doing to myself and why I'm doing it.
