Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
You've tried everything--the pills, the shakes, the diets, even the surgery--and it's been a losing battle. But permanent weight loss isn't impossible. Not anymore . . .
Now dietary expert Laurel Mellin offers a scientifically proven, agony-free, breakthrough program for weight loss that doesn't require deprivation or superhuman willpower. The Diet-Free Solution presents a practical six-step plan that succeeds where other diets fail because it identifies the psychological, physical, and lifestyle causes of weight problems--the powerful mind and body drives that lead to overeating and inactivity--and offers the cure for each. You can change your body--and ultimately your whole life--with:
- The Nurturing Cure: How to become aware of your feelings and meet your own needs
- The Limits Cure: How to control your actions and set appropriate, realistic expectations
- The Body Pride Cure: How to turn off negative stereotypes about fat
- The Good Health Cure: How to become aware of body health and stay healthy
- The Eating Cure: How to eat regular meals and maintain a healthy diet
- The Activity Cure: How to maintain an exercise program and find personal time
Until you understand the whole truth about your weight problem, you can't solve it. Whether you're trying to lose those last five pounds, end a compulsive eating problem, or shed more weight than you ever thought you'd carry, let The Diet-Free Solution work for you now and for the rest of your life!
Amazon.com Review:
These days, it's fashionable to look at the problems of overweight people and write them off as too much food and too little exercise. But for many it's more complicated than that, and Laurel Mellin has identified six root causes of the behaviors that lead to obesity. She believes it's never too late to develop the skills to overcome these problems, whether the root is an inability to set limits or a life lived out of balance.

I absolutely loved this book. I got so much unexpected help from it. The title sounds like it's just an average diet book but it is so much more than that. In fact the book isn't about dieting at all. What it's really about is getting down to the core of why you might eat the way you shouldn't based on emotional baggage. It tries to get you to sift through your emotional history and things that may be bothering you. I found out so much about myself and why I eat and I was so happy and relieved to be able to change my habits. I recommend this to anyone that might eat out of emotions.

This is the best book I've ever read. It has changed my life. It even helps with issues other than just weight loss.

Good information, short and to the point. That said I have to admit I had to think which book this was, as it apparently didn't have any outstanding qualities.

This is a very insightful book. Not only did it help me lose weight, but it is a book that can help anyone gain personal power. It teaches you easily how to manage your emotions well and how to manage/handle life as it is. Thank you Laurel for writing this book.

This book was hyped as a "simple" solution to weight loss. The concepts may be simple but don't confuse simple with easy. The concept of climbing mount Everest is simple too. Somehow this "simple" set of solutions leads to a seemingly endless trail of products and seminars that will eventually get you where you want to be. I have no patince for a book that is merely a tease and a marketing tool to get you deeper in debt to it's author. Whatever good ideas were in this book got lost in my anger of being shilled.
