Has anyone else read "The Beck Diet Solution?"

I just picked it up (again) and am feeling good about the exercises. Last time I read it I got halfway through and thought "heck, I don't need this! I know what to do!" (I.e. a sabotaging thought). This time around I am taking it truly to heart. Anyone else? Have you read her newest book?

    Nah, I just eat whatever I want, and log.

    I have read it. I didn't find it the best diet book.

    I prefer "The 7 keys to weight loss freedom" and "The Hacker's Diet" both of which had more actionable ideas in them for me.

    I am a big Beck Diet Solution and The Diet Trap Solution fan. I don't have trouble losing weight in the short-term-- I can be very motivated and careful for about seven months and then I will become sabotaged by thoughts like "It's not fair that I can't eat like a "normal" person." So then I act out with food one time, which makes it easier to act out the next day and so on, until I have gained all the weight back. For me, the Beck books have really been filling an important need to change my thinking, not just what I eat and how much I move. I am really confident and dedicated to get out of the cycle of yoyo dieting. There are other Beck fans on MFP and a Beck group.
