  This is a book for yo-yo dieters, binge-crash dieters, and all those people who think they need to lose weight when everyone tells them they look fine the way they are. Extreme eating patterns can lead to eating disorders - varying degrees of bulimic and anorexic behaviour. Paulette Maisner has spent many years counselling people who are excessively worried about their weight. Her successful eating plan has helped hundreds of chronic dieters overcome the chaos associated with an eating disorder. Drawing from her own experience, using self-help questionnaires and personal stories, the author attempts to help readers overcome eating problems, understand hunger cycles, recognize trigger foods, control blood sugar levels and improve self-esteem.
