How to Survive Your Diet     $14.95  read an excerpt

Experts tell us that as we get older, we need less sleep. But have you considered that we need less food, too? We stop growing, our metabolisms slow down, and our calorie requirements drop a bit. Yet we continue to eat the large portions we needed while growing, and over time our portions become ever larger. The good news is that our appetites decrease in accordance with our decreased need for food. But why is it so difficult, then, to reduce our portions? There are a number of reasons.

The culture dictates large portions, our families think we're not healthy if we're not eating a lot, the cook is insulted if we don't clean our plate, and restaurants serve gigantic portions. These are just some of the reasons. Others include our lack of awareness that our portion demands are growing, and diets which omit a food group which force our bodies to seek larger portions in an endless attempt to find small amounts of the forbidden component in the foods we permit ourselves to eat.

But worse than all of that is the emotional eating and stress eating. For many of us, food has become a substance that we abuse. How to Survive Your Diet and Conquer Your Food Issues Forever addresses all of these forces which influence how many calories we end up consuming in a day.

If you're tired of your dieting life, but you still want to lose weight, there is a way. With a little diligence and introspection, portion control is attainable. Let Linda Moran show you why diets often make matters worse rather than better, and how you can approach food with a new way of thinking.

Attention emotional eaters! You'll be happy to hear that you don't have to analyze your every last emotion in order to stop your emotional eating. Compulsive exercisers! Would you like to finally spend your time some other way? It is possible. Listen up, stress eaters! You don't have to rid yourself of all your stress in order to stop stress eating! Night eaters! You feel out of control eating in the middle of the night. You might not even be awake. But you can get help! Calling all binge eaters! Your secret is out and there is help. Overeaters of all kinds don't have to compromise by eating unpalatable, altered foods. Instead, the work lies in changing your beliefs and self-talk so that you become the master of your own eating and diet plans.

Using principles of cognitive therapy, Linda Moran explains that the problem is not you. And it's not your diet. It's how you think about your diet and food. She argues, convincingly, that binge eating, emotional eating, stress eating, and just plain overeating can be stopped. With a little work, you can "break up" with your food, just as you would with a poorly selected but comfortable beau. As you change your beliefs and finally free yourself from your attachment to food and dieting, you will discover that any reasonable diet will work. Even better, you will succeed just as easily with no formal diet at all.

Never again enslave yourself to an extreme low-carb or low-fat diet. Stop avoiding "bad" foods as the answer. You will never have to have "food guilt" again. Instead, embrace the belief that you can retrain yourself to tune into your body's natural signs of hunger and fullness. Eat what appeals to you when you are truly hungry, in the balance that your body calls for. Stop eating when you are no longer hungry. If it sounds too simple, it can actually be quite challenging. Years of overeating may have dulled your body awareness. As the originator of the phrase, "rapid satiety," author Linda Moran can help you reawaken your natural ability to eat normally, leading you to your true, natural weight.

Stop binge eating! Stop emotional eating! Stop stress eating! Stop overeating!
