From readers of prior editions:
It wasnt until I read your book that I was able to walk through the steps of recovery. It was truly the first time I had felt hope in more than 16 years.
When I finished the first day of the two-week program, the words sleep well brought tears to my eyes. I felt like someone out there really understands and cares. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Please forgive my personal disclosure of struggles with emotions or relationships. I just would like to appreciate your generous treatments in this letter. Today I am peaceful because you really touched my thirsty soul like a warm spring wind. (from Japan)
There are no words that would aptly describe just how much my life has changed, and how much your shared wisdom helped me along the way.
I just wanted you to know that I read your book every night when I go to bed, and it keeps inspiring me more and more. I am not going back!
I cant believe Ive finished the course, and have not had one single binge. But the most precious thing I found in the course is an inner peace with myself, and a realization that it is possible to recover completely.
(from Switzerland)
Every thought Id ever had concerning my bulimia was in your book. It became one of my closest friends and began to replace the friend that bulimia had been.
When I look in the mirror now, my eyes dont look hollow and empty. They are once again sparkling with life.
The book has brought my niece spirit food. (from China)
I have been carrying your book in my backpack for four months now, since I stumbled upon it in a bookstore in Madras, India. I find something on every page that speaks to me.
I want to tell you that you touched my soul. You are real. You are empathetic and honest. I have recommended your book to everyone who has or is in danger of suffering from an eating disorder.
Whenever I feel like giving up or like there is no hope, I remember how difficult it was for you, too, and I remind myself that I can do it.
Let us all
love and respect
ourselves
and
each other.
love and respect
ourselves
and
each other.
