"This book felt honest, heartfelt, so relatable, and even funny. It's written pretty creatively. It keeps you reading because it keeps getting more interesting. If you can take a subject like weight loss or improving yourself or your self-worth and make it fun and interesting, you've got a good book."
"This book beautifully describes an issue that we don't discuss enough, with practical tools and strategies written in a conversational way. You will laugh, reflect, cry and ultimately get to the real root of your weight issue which is a love issue."
"I love the conversational tone of this book. She's the first author to make it fun rather than painful to look at my relationship with food. Chapter 6 was especially helpful. And there were little exercises throughout. For the first time, I really looked at my feelings even though it was uncomfortable. I thought I just didn't have willpower."
"Wow! This book really broke down the heart of the issues that cause people to use food as their drug of choice, and then it spells out the road map for learning to love yourself enough to deal with your feelings instead--to fill that "myself sized hole". I highly recommend this book for anyone who has struggled with their relationship with food! The author is so transparent in her journey which helps you feel like you're not alone. My favorite quote from the book is: "Meet yourself where you are and not where you or someone else imagines you should be."
"What an inspirational book. One that needs to be read by anyone having weight control problems. She writes an open, honest and even painful story about her own introspection. She looked deep into her soul to discover the "why" and brought it out to others, sharing how to change your eating habit to be more healthy both physically and psychologically. Kudos to you . I hope to see more from you."
"The author's personality and style allowed it to keep my attention- and impart wisdom (not just knowledge) at the same time. I liked her analogy of this eating excursion as a journey where you pack your suitcase and keep adding to it. The relationship we might have with food is more complex than we think, but also far easier to comprehend than we are willing to admit."
"For those who need information, guidance, and support losing weight and increasing self-worth, this is a great book. The author provides a relatable and personable journey to self-discovery. The exercises and what to "pack in your suitcase" at the end of each chapter are great. This book will be one that readers can come back to time and time again. It digs deeper than the average book that discusses the "why" behind emotional eating. This book will help many, well done!"
"My favorite quote in the book, by the author "I can only do me. Everyone else has to do them." This book has so many practical solutions and advice with plenty of motivation to back it up. I love the perspective that you just can't change the things, you have to be the person. Great read to get yourself on the road to real change."
