    I bought this book a couple of years ago when it first came out. I have many different books on this subject! I have yet to follow one to a T but I can say that I get some knowledge and insight from every single one of them. I'm hoping that by taking a little bit of this book and a little bit of that book will eventually get me on the straight and narrow when it comes to living healthfully!

    Anyway, I recommend this book. I learned a bunch and it was through this book and exploring the emotional side of eating that I FINALLY had my "aha moment" about why I gained 50 pounds in less than a year. I remember the moment of realization well. And from that moment on, I lost half of what I had gained with ease... now I'm just working on the last half!

    tee hee hee... Me too Alf, I'm a library girl first then I get sold on the book and then check out amazon then the bookstore if need be.:blushing:

    Glad I'm not the only library girl here:laugh: The bummer on that is when you really get into it , dang it's time to renew and if to many folks have heard great things about a particular book, it's not renewable for a time, so that's the only drawback. But using that method is GREAT for finding out if it's the book for you (me:laugh: )

    I was more affected by the other parts of the book. The emotional eating and the ways to choose alternate activities to turn you away from habitual or emotional eating. I need to dig my book back out to reread and see if I can glean some more pearls of wisdom from Dr. Phil!:flowerforyou:

    Amy:bigsmile:
    This too is what I look for in books Amy:flowerforyou: :wink: It's usually what I flip to first when finding an interesting book.....

    NO but I was SO close to trying out the new biggest loser family cook book. I am still thinking about it.
    Is there now 3 BL cookbooks out? The original, then a 2nd one and now a family one as well?

    I had found the BL book clearanced out at a grocery store for a mere couple of $'s so couldn't pass that up! I found it has some awesome recipes in the back to try out. SO it got me wondering about the other cookbooks as well. I did get one from the library and it sounded like some great ideas, simple, tasty, healthy and some more complex ones as well for those who like that type. Seems to cover a lot of variety.

    Have you checked Amazon? Not sure if the one you're referring to being interested in is a brand new one or something you might find used?

    Good Luck, looking forward to hearing how you like it if you go that route:bigsmile:

    Oh yes girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :laugh: :laugh: I don't like wasting my money. If the library does not have a particular book I just go to Barnes and Noble get myself a skinny latte at Starbucks and sit down and read the book :laugh: :laugh: hey, if they let you do it, why not?? If I see that it is worth buying then I buy it. I also check out exercise videos at the library. :flowerforyou:
