Binge eating, eating more food than feels comfortable, is a problem for more than half of all overweight Americans. Binge eating is not bulimia, and while many do it -- over the sink, late at night, or in front of the refrigerator -- yo-yo dieters are especially susceptible. Renowned diet expert Dr. Peter M. Miller reveals the proven six-step program that has already helped thousands of dieters conquer binge eating and lose weight permanently. Readers will discover:
-- The psychological and biological reasons for binging
-- Ways to eliminate the "all-or-nothing" syndrome
-- How to eat "forbidden" foods in moderation
-- Breakthrough techniques of "mindfulness" -- the key to overcoming binge eating permanently
-- Behavior strategies, eating plans, and a moderate exercise program

Gives you hope,
By A Customer
This review is from: Binge Breaker!(TM): Stop Out-of-Control Eating and Lose Weight (Paperback)
This book alone will not solve your binge eating problem, so don't expect that. But it is a must-read for any person who feels uncontrollable when it comes to food. It definitely makes you wake up to realize what might be behind your binge-eating, as in the emotions behind it. It is an easy-read and you will do a lot of self-assessment. He truly gives you hope that you can get through this so you can focus on losing all the weight you want to. The key part is that he recognizes that normal diets don't work if you are a binge eater because they do not address bingeing. A+!

The one book that helped me.,

This review is from: Binge Breaker!(TM): Stop Out-of-Control Eating and Lose Weight (Paperback)
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!

This review is from: Binge Breaker!(TM): Stop Out-of-Control Eating and Lose Weight (Paperback)
This book was interesting and I was very enlightened. I realized that I do have a binge eating disorder and all of the advice in the book was great. However, I found that it was hard to follow and to keep on top of. Very easy to revert back to prior binge eating ways. There is still hope:My recommendation is The Hunger Within: A Twelve-Week Self-Guided Journey from Compulsive Eating to Recovery -- by Marilyn Migliore, Philip Ross See my review of this book...
