Despite the positives named above, I abandoned this book, 1/3 of the way through, as ultimately unhelpful. The author keeps talking about "your pig" or "your fat thinking self." I don't like these terms, but that's not my only problem with the book; he does suggest several alternative names for this part of yourself. My problem is the bifurcation of the individual. The author spends a lot of time saying things like "[Your fat thinking self] will suggest [that] aggressively rejecting all your fat thoughts is a form of self-cruelty." This is one of many instances where Dr. Livingston puts words in the mouth of "your pig." I ultimately abandoned this book because I couldn't figure out what he was talking about. I don't have another person living inside my mind telling me things. I don't need an entire book to tell me how to ignore this theoretical person ("pig").
In conclusion, this book offered me nothing. Instead of offering knowledge we already have, this book allegedly helps us create our own food plan. But the author is so invested in not telling you what to do, that he actually gives very few useful suggestions on what this might look like. So the book is just a bunch of words that don't actually say anything, plus a weird suggestion that I have a pig voice inside of me, which I don't. I've actually had a lot of success with dieting, and I've lost more than 50 lb. But it wasn't thanks to Never Binge Again. It was thanks to the detailed, but still able to be modified to your own circumstances, plans provided in the Shred diet book.… (meer)
