Title: Busy work...
Product review: The book "The Hunger Within" was not at all helpful to me in overcoming compulsive overeating. The book is filled with step by step instructions and tons of 'busy work' exercises. While the book does talk about the triggers for overeating and provides alternatives, it never gets to the root of why some people have triggers and some don't and how to lessen the triggers. I can memorize the steps, I can make a conscious decision to make another choice, however, this does not eliminate the trigger or the sometimes overwhelming desire to eat. Following the steps still means I am constantly battling with myself. There is no inner peace with this process.To overcome overeating, one must understand where the trigger is coming from and address the underlying issue. A much better book is "The Taming of the Chew" which is a holistic approach to overcoming overeating.
