There are thousands of books on the market about how to lose weight. There are millions of people who want to lose weight, who try to lose weight, but don't succeed. So what is the problem? One of the problems is our lack of willpower when it comes to changing our eating habits. We know that we should eat less, that we should eat healthy food instead of donuts and fast food, but our conditioned habitual behaviour is stronger than our knowledge. We are addicted to stuffing the wrong food and too much of it into our mouth. Many how to lose weight books are brilliant, but our willpower is not strong enough to do what the books say.Linda Schneider's "Mind Over Mouth" is one of a few books on the market that addresses this challenge. But not only that; Linda talks from personal experiences. She walked the talk and tells you what worked for her. The 12 techniques that she outlines are amazingly simple and they make a lot of sense. You don't need to do all of them, just the ones that you feel okay with.This book is an ideal - I would even go one step further: an ESSENTIAL - companion book to every weight loss book and weight loss program on the market. What's the point of knowing what you should do if that mad craving within you sabotages all your good intentions? There is just pain and unhappiness. The challenge is to make the mouth do what the mind knows is right. This books helps you to do exactly that. Reviewed by Fred Schäfer, author of The Solution Within Yourself.
