WORTH READING - By: , 03 Jun 2003 
Simple & effective. a quick read too, direct & to the point.
Well worth double the price.
EXCELLENT - WORKS AFTER A FIRST READING - By: , 23 May 2003 Once you've read this book, it plays in your mind.
We've learnt to overeat in certain circumstances, & we have to break those connections within the brain.
The book almost hypnotises you, & the record keeps playing with alll the questions it raises.
Questions effectively break the wiring.... And we stop overeating, eating the wrong foods, eating second portions. All the bad stuff gets hit out of play after the first reading.
You just can't shake off the effect of this book.
Beating Overeating - By: M. Mulliner, 10 Feb 2003 Fabulous! If you have been caught in the dieting world for longer than you care to be......buy this book & see yourself in a completely different way! I've bought more books for weight loss than I can remember, but this is totallly different!!
I have also bought Gillian Riley's main book 'Eating Less' which I have just started reading. There is no 'quick fix' but a sure & solid way to get that body of yours sorted out for good...for life! Try it out for yourself! I see food in a very different way now & have stopped fighting it...I'm losing weight & caring for my health!
Encouraging, helpful and practical book - By: , 20 May 2002 Gillian Riley is a former overeater with a wonderfully realistic approach, which takes the pressure right off.
Diets & depriving oneself is out!
The advice she gives is so sensible & practical, yet goes deep down to the real issues. But without the "shoulds & oughts".
Let's put it this way. This is the only book I have ever read which has actuallly resulted in me buying & eating healthy food, after years of meaning to do it but nothing actuallly changing!
That has to be a good thing!
Quick reads which makes a lot of sense - By: , 18 Feb 2002 This book has been read fully once & I am re-reading it again taking time for it to sink in, but the three questions I have to ask myself have already. 1) Am I choosing 2) What is my motivation, 3) How am I responding to temptation. Interesting reading, comments about how you can get yourself a new brain, well a new way of thinking, giving yourself less of a hard time, choosing the reasons you want to eat less apart from weight loss & then looks at how to lead a good healthy life. I am gonna get Gillian' other book Eating Less which is the same kind of thing but in detail. Looking forward to reading it & hoping it will help me identify more of my reasons of over eating!
