Product Description
Written in easy-to-understand, everyday language, The Rules of "Normal" Eating lays out the four basic rules that "normal" eaters follow instinctively — eating when they're hungry, choosing foods that satisfy them, eating with awareness and enjoyment, and stopping when they're full or satisfied. Along with specific skills and techniques that help promote change, the book presents a proven cognitive-behavioral model of transformation that targets beliefs, feelings, and behaviors about food and eating and points the way toward genuine physical and emotional fulfillment. Readers learn how to reprogram their dysfunctional beliefs, manage uncomfortable feelings without turning to food, and establish new eating habits that tune their bodies into natural sensations of hunger, pleasure, satisfaction, and satiation. Filled with humorous insights, compassion, and practical wisdom, the book outlines balanced attitudes and patterns that benefit all types of eaters. |

The Rules of "Normal" Eating  5 Stars
November 15, 2009
I've read several books on compulsive eating and having trouble just saying "no." This book is the absolute BEST book written regarding eating behavior issues! I strongly recommend anyone who is having problems with food to read this book. This author really "hit the nail on the head." It was like she was talking to me and really knew what my issues were. Read this book and you'll get a lot of help and questions answered. It did help that she, herself, has had eating issues for several years of her life so she knows where we are all at.

I use it in my classes by JoLaine Jones-Pokorney (Florida) 5 Stars
September 24, 2009
Karen Koenig's work is an excellent addition to the Intuitive Eating and Health at Every Size curriculum. I teach a seven-week Intuitive eating course and use lots of her concepts - especially the list of irrational beliefs. A definite read if you are looking to gain a sane perspective on food and your body.

This book is extremely helpful. by Lenore B. Webber (Newton, MA) 5 Stars
September 03, 2009
I found this book to be extremely helpful and full of practical, easy-to-implement advice. The author, Ms. Koenig, has clearly "been there" herself, and her book speaks to the frustration, and downword spiral some of us have experienced. Her lightweight, often humorous touch is just what is needed for this serious subject. I recommend her book highly for those who have struggled with this issue, and I found it very very helpful.

This is the book that helped me! by Lynda from Colorado (Colorado)  4 Stars
September 03, 2009
Finally after many years of struggle and reading many, many books on the subject I found one I could really use and follow successfully. It's obvious that the author not only knows her subject but that she has applied these same "rules" herself and resolved her own eating issues. There is so much confusing and conflicting information out there nowadays. It was refreshing to find such an easy approach to follow. This is one of those-- just do it books-- and I did! I made many changes right away and am now working on the "stickier" behaviors. The author writes with humor about a very serious subject. Thank you Karen Koenig!
