Daily Affirmations for Compulsive Eaters

Summary: a compulsive overeater's best morning friend...
Review: I bought one copy of this book five years ago, then ordered an entire case from the publisher... to give to my friends who struggle with a compulsive eating disorder, too. Susan Ward, thank you for writing with such acceptance, such insight, such good sense, and such restraint. Each entry helps me toward honesty, humility, and hope; each day I sit on the throne and regain my sense of self and hope in my own ability to recover. No real religious stuff, but gentle, healthy, spirited, friendly words. Buy it, then buy lots more and give them away! nancy

Summary: Stay away unless you are a 12 step program member
Review: I found the meditations to be stilted and poorly written. They are so heavily laden with 12 step language that only a committed member of OA would be comfortable with it. The 12 steps are not the only way to go, and in fact are quite likely NOT the best way.

Review: This book should have been 2-3 chapters long. The content didn't move me to make life changes like some other things I've read. I wouldn't recommend it.
