Struggling to the end

I feel the same as the many reviews I read... at the exception of the chapters on her devastating loss of her son, I just didn't like this book. The 3 stars are out of respect for her tragedy losing her son and the depth of her grief, which she explains very well, it's gut wrenching and pretty hard to keep a dry eye listening to it. I can relate completely since I have been through a similar experience with my first child (not the same condition).
Apart from these chapters, she comes across as a shallow spoil brat at times. I found her analogy to choose Holt Renfrew versus Value Village insulting especially in the context she introduced it (don't want to give too much details so I don't ruin her stories). The fact that she refers to her friend, then boyfriend then husband as "Hot Ronnie" throughout the book drove me nuts, especially in the chapter describing the death of her son. That she calls him "Hot Ronnie" at the beginning when she first met him, okay, but not to the end!
Then there is the religion... I am a spiritual person but not religious so hearing in almost every paragraph her devotion to God was, in my opinion, a bit much.
Then she refers a lot to Rachel Hollis, that "save her marriage", well their very expensive marriage weekend retreat didn't work on them since she and her husband divorced in 2020.
Anyway, I have a lot more to say but will leave it at that.

Had the pleasure to see Michael perform, he is great. Loved to learn more about him and his life. I'm a mom if an ASD young man (23) and work in the field of Autism. Great to hear his perspective.

The content would be good if I was not distracted and annoyed by the word "GOD" every single sentence. Although I am not a religious person I consider myself spiritual. This book felt like a Bible study. Very disappointed but maybe I should have read more reviews on it. That being said, I enjoy the author on YouTube interviews when he does not refer to GOD every two seconds.

I liked to learn about the author own experience and the fact that she is completely free of binging with a simple solution. I am wondering how many readers have been successful to train their "animal brain" after reading this book?
However, I found her book too critical of conventional therapies. I understand it didn't work for her and she didn't have underlying problems but a lot of us do. I found the book a bit repetitive.
I still recommend this book for anyone who has been dealing with binge eating for many years.

I like the first few chapters then I found it repetitive. I enjoyed the stories. I struggled to finish it because I felt I was listening to the same advises over and again. If you like the Bootcamp style, then you'll enjoy it more, not my cup of tea.

This book helped me a lot to understand what a toxic relationship is with a CN. It gives you hope for healing properly, move on and get your power back.

I expected a different book. Although I consider myself spiritual, I was not ready for this book. Expected more concrete information. Way too long for my taste, I struggle to finish it.

Good informative book to really understand depression. Great tool for the depressive and the family. I did find it a bit repetitive at times.
