When Food Is Love (Abridged): Exploring the Relationship Between Eating and Intimacy Audiobook

" Life changing. No exaggeration. "

" Clear and easy to read. The author is painfully honest about her issues with food. "

" This is simply the most important book I've ever read! "

" This book was a bit of a rollercoaster for me. It's probably the only good thing that came out of a terrible counseling session I had recently...the counselor recommended it to me. What was strange was that I could totally identify with the author one minute and then be thinking she was crazy the next. Ultimately, I learned a bit about compulsive eating and gained some insight into myself. I plan to read a couple other books by this author that she referred to in this one. "

" A new way of looking at nourishment. "

" Geneen writes about her personal struggles ... makes it all more relevant, I think. Easy and enjoyable reading. "

" Just started and it speaks to me already "

" This book was very powerful. Emotional, intense, and powerful .... one that I will remember and reference many times .. "

" Good book. There are many insights in this book. "

" Made sense but boring, I just have a hard time reading non fiction I guess. "

" Geneen is a great writer and does an excellent job of describing the emotions behind eating. "

" geneen rocks "

" This book is a book about emotional eating. It was deeply moving to me because I can realate in so many ways...I adore all Gene Roth books. If only I could learn to trian myself to eat the way she has. "

" This book helped me change my life.. "

" I liked the book gave me the insight to know that weight n food are only symptoms. What's the real reason but the book didn't seem organized and the voice was kind of depressing too mono tone. "

" Geneen Roth is the clearest voice on the relationship between compulsive overeaters and emotional well being. Her thoughts on the overlapping of food and love in the lives of overeaters is very thought provoking. I felt like she spoke so clearly for me and many other women. I highly recommend it. "

" This is such a brave author. She just tells it how it is. Her struggles have been amazing. Lots of ways for people to take a look at the way they eat, without judgment. What a concept! "

" I read this book many years ago, and it was one of many that finally showed me that there was a way out of the trap of eating for emotional reasons. Some extra fluff, but the crux of the book is solid. "

" Wow I can barely remember reading this book (or having anorexia, or emotional eating, thankfully) but I remember relating to it when I read this way back. "

" This is a good book for feeling less alone in your relationship with food. It's a good story. The thing it doesn't have is a "how to" description about actually doing something about it. "

" I will write a longer review later but Oprah was right (never thought I'd say that) when she called this book "life changing." It's deep stuff. I can't wait to read her other books now! "

" Geneen is a great writer and does an excellent job of describing the emotions behind eating. "

" this book did not change my life maybe this new one where food brings us to god will affect me more "

" Just started and it speaks to me already "

" This is a fantastic book for anyone who is an emotional eater. "

" I am really in to this author since reading the book that was featured on Oprah - Women Food and God. Very insightful. I am learning a lot about myself through reading these books. "

" I am still processing so much of this book that it's hard to give it an accurate and worthy review, except that it's incredibly insightful and as an introduction to Roth's work it's outstanding. "

" Geneen writes about her personal struggles ... makes it all more relevant, I think. Easy and enjoyable reading. "

" Anyone who struggles with food and/or body issues - this is a must read. The woman gets it - big time. "
