I am a "Compulsive Overeater."  I came to Diets Don’t Work in June of this year with feelings of such hopelessness.  I felt even more hopelessness when I learned your program was about “no dieting!”  I never dreamed I could accept my body the way it is and eat anything I wanted.  This whole concept blew me away—unraveled every teaching I had ever received about weight control.  I now understand and believe that “the binge” was the only healthy aspect of the many diets I had been on...I have learned so much from your program...I am allowing myself to eat whatever I want, when I get hungry.  I am making choices for myself that are self-loving and nourishing.  I’m learning to stop eating when I am full, based on the fact that there will always be more.  I am allowing myself to take “baby steps.”

I am in recovery with my eating disorder and...I’ll never have to go back.  The tools...your program has given me are priceless.  I will (and have) recommend your program.

I could not have experienced the freedom I feel today without the guidance, professionalism, the teachings, the understanding and the compassion of our common bond.  I have hope today.  I have courage.  I am a different person.
