Rebecca L. Robson tells us about her struggles toward a binge-free life. She tells us about the feelings and emotions she faced in her journey and the strategies she applied during this struggle. Rebecca was a binge eater. After years of hardships and suffering, she had recovered, but she had no guidelines. So what the author wanted was to provide some basic strategies and plans for other binge eaters in the world. And she did this by writing this book.

The strategies she gives us work mentally and emotionally rather than physically on us because the physical us is easy to control. The old habits, however, won't die. These strategies require some time. "Quick fixes to big problems are always tempting." But there is a whole book. There won't be any quick strategies. It will take some time to figure out the roots of the cause of this binge storm, talking to an 'inner child' of yours, observing it and everything you do during a binge session, cracking out the triggers that urge a binge session, and a lot more than that. This book is not a diet book. It is a permanent solution to binge eating.

This book describes everything related to food, binge eating, overeating, dieting, and their relationship with mind, body, and soul. Though the strategies in this book aren't easy, they aren't difficult to follow either. We take little steps one by one to stop binge eating. So the positive aspect of this book is that it gives details about food and its relation to the brain. It has strategies needed to do as fun or self-amusing.

On the other hand, this book gives strategies that could help us only emotionally and mentally. But I need to tell this straightforward, our mind, or more specifically, our brain is so much evolved, that I cannot think if following these strategies or plans or mental tricks would help rewire it. I say this because every person has a different brain and different emotions. Not all binge eaters are alike, are they? So after reading this book, we still have to figure out the urge that triggers us to binge.

I will give this book a 3 out of 4 stars. Actually, this book deserves better, but I think I did it perfect. This book requires digging deep in ourselves, finding all the reasons to binge, then we have to admit that we binge and that-so on. I couldn't do it even if I were a binge eater. So that's my rating.

Anyone, not only the binge eaters, who find urge to do something but don't want to do it, I recommend "How to Stop Binge Eating and Learn to Love Food Again" to them. This book has layouts on which you could design your own ideas to help yourselves out, and stop those urges and learn to live a better life again.
