Book Preview:

#1 The most natural way to eat, when we are hungry, sounds like just another fad to many people. They have been handed so many contrasting pieces of information about food that they can’t distinguish the ones that make sense from the ones that don’t.

#2 When we are not dieting, we feel so deprived from ignoring our hunger that we try to make up for it by eating so much we don’t allow ourselves to get hungry.

#3 When we give up dieting, we take back something we were often too young to know we had given away: our own voice. Our ability to make decisions about what to eat and when. Our belief in ourselves.

#4 The fear of hunger, like the fear of loneliness, is connected with emptiness, echoes, and endless wanting. The experience of hunger is immediate, and it is sound and sensation. You begin eating when you are hungry by letting yourself get hungry.
