Many diet books say “this is not a diet book”, even ones with titles like “The Such-And-Such Diet”. So, how does this one weigh up?

It is… *drumroll please* not a diet book! It’s entirely about reframing one’s attitude towards various things, including:

The methodology is in fact very anti-dieting in the restrictive sense of the word, and rather is a call to intuitive eating, mindful eating, and engagement with one’s own values, supporting these things with an extensive array of psychological tools (including, but not limited to, CBT and NLP).

The style is quite a mix. It’s as motivationally written as you might expect, with lengthy testimonials from happy clients at the end of each chapter. It also has frequent references for claims, although these are mostly for cited statistics, rather than for the actual methods recommended.

The early pre-chapters before part one were a little wearying to this reviewer; the author is distractingly proud of having an office on Harley Street (a once-prestigious London address famous for illustrious doctors; nowadays it’s merely expensive), and this reviewer was starting to wonder if she could go for more than a page without mentioning it. However, happily that did taper out and most of the rest (aside from the testimonials, which might be considered padding) was valuable content.

And, we want to be clear: while we’ve criticized the style a bit, the advice itself is actually excellent and is certainly as potentially life-changing as its many annoying testimonials attest.

Bottom line: if you’re at the point where it seems the main barrier to the weight loss that you want (and the book does assume that weight loss is what you ultimately want, by the way) is yourself, then this book can definitely help you overcome that hurdle.
