THE EMOTIONAL EATING, CHRONIC DIETING, BINGE EATING & BODY IMAGE WORKBOOK

You didn’t fail your diet. Your diet failed YOU.

In a society where thinness is a measure of worthiness, it’s no wonder the multibillion-dollar weight-loss industry continues to flourish while its loyal, repeat customers continue to suffer in shame. After all, we’ve been led to believe that it’s our fault we can’t succeed at the latest diet, control our eating, or mold our bodies to the “correct” size and shape.

The Emotional Eating, Chronic Dieting, Binge Eating & Body Image Workbook seeks to flip that narrative on its head.
