I've never been one for self-help or inspirational books but when I became in charge of a Wellness book club at my library, I chose this mostly because it was short and seemed like an easy read. I really enjoyed the insights though. I hope I can hold on to all the things I learned from Geneen's writing as I've not felt so light in a long time.

Geneen Roth has a lot of guts. I say this because it takes a lot of guts to share the things that she does in this book-- her feelings towards food, towards herself, towards her relationships. Seriously, some of the incidents she describes had me cringing with secondhand embarrassment and agony. But that is also why I like this book. Roth is brave to be so open and honest about her issues and this book will definitely resonate for those with an unhealthy relationship with food and eating. I do think it is a little thin though, and wish it went into more detail. A lot of the information here won't be anything new if you've already read some material (books or online) on binge-eating/compulsive eating, but it's insightful to read about a woman's real, personal journey through it.… (mere)

A great practical book with advice that you can put into action immediately and feel better. This is a good one to have on hand and flip through during those times you feel down.

Tried this when it first came out...could not get into it. It hit too hard and too deep. The journey is one a absolute honesty and commitment - which I thought I had. Picked it up yesterday...after finally being willing to look at my food.

As Rohr says...Everything Belongs...and this book belongs now...
