I'm afraid that a lot of people will skip over this book because it's not plastered in grandiose claims right from the get-go. That would be a huge mistake. Alana's story of how food was a controlling influence, a way to fill a void, was really well written and from the heart. That's a theme you'll notice a lot throughout this book. You NEED to grapple with the psychological reasons for overeating or food dependency before just going straight to fad diets. Doing it the other way around is like putting a band aid on a severed artery. You have to treat the cause, not just the symptoms, and this book is a great way to start doing that. Highly recommended.
