Foodaholic: The Seven Stages to Permanent Weight Loss is the missing link in diet books. It is not a diet, but rather a guide through the psychological process of losing weight and keeping it off. Foodaholic breaks down the process of losing weight into seven stages, from the realization (OMG Im fat!) to acceptance that weight maintenance isnt a matter of a diet; its a lifelong journey. Written by weight loss expert and licensed psychotherapist Irene Rubaum-Keller, Foodaholic is full of personal and clinical examples of how to overcome familiar but challenging obstacles such as "the plateau," the shock of looking different and dealing with other peoples reactions. The author herself has maintained a fifty pound weight loss for twenty two years. It is the ultimate road map through the jungle that is weight loss. Foodaholic will help you:* Understand why you have failed to lose weight and keep it off in the past. * Get unstuck. * Recover from food addiction. * Lose weight and keep it off for life.
