A Course in Weight Loss by Marianne Williamson

This is a beautifully written, spiritual approach to weight loss. Marianne Williamson has taken her years of study of A Course In Miracles, and applied them to the subject of losing weight and keeping it off. Even though I, personally, come from a more atheistic perspective, I was still able to get a lot out of these 21 lessons. The cognitive dissonance, and "food hell" of overeating and food addiction are thoroughly examined. Marianne does a fantastic job of explaining that binge eating is not by any means a loving act, but an act of violence against yourself. She sums it up brilliantly with the words "What you feel, you feed." Anyone, with even a little experience with emotional eating would get a lot out of this book.
