Eat When You're Hungry Now At Amazon


After many requests from friends and strangers alike for hard copies of Eat When You're Hungry, I'm happy to report that the book is now available on Amazon! What's most gratifying about seeing my book on the "shelf" at Amazon is that it now has the potential to reach an even broader audience. When I first put fingers to keyboard and set out on this Eat When You're Hungry journey, my goal was simple -- to help as many people as I possibly could to stop dieting and start living. That remains my goal today, and thanks to the wonder of the Internet, I'm reaching more people every day.

Go check out my hard copy book, share the link with friends and family, and if/once you've read the book, consider writing a review.

Happy eating (and reading)!

Food, Inc.


Last night I saw a film that I recommend you see ASAP – before it’s out of theaters. It’s called Food, Inc. If it’s not in a theater near you, put it on your Blockbuster or Netflix list for when it comes out on DVD. And in the meantime, you can learn more about the film and the issues it explores here.

I can’t believe it, but I hadn’t heard of this film before last night, when my husband and I were looking for a movie to see. We were planning to see a fun summer flick, but when I saw the title “Food, Inc.” our plans changed. Rotten tomatoes gave it at 96 percent on its tomatometer, so that should speak for itself.

And don’t worry – this isn’t a holier-than-thou film professing the “perfect” diet or suggesting anything negative about meat-eaters (you know I wouldn’t support anything like that). It’s a holistic look at the food industry, food safety issues and a number of larger policy and socioeconomic issues.

Let me know if you see it, and tell me what you think!
