We are constantly bombarded by signals telling us to eat. Some were wired into our bodies thousand of years ago. Some jump out at us from the TV screen or the supermarket shelf. But over time, we can all learn to sort out these signals and reach and maintain a healthy weight. This method works because it deals with causes, not with symptoms. It explores reasons why we overeat because there's really no "we". Everyone is different, which is precisely why "off-the-rack" diets rarely work. There is no magic bullet. But there is a way, with time and patience, that we can each get to our own version of happy, healthy and free.
