Dieting A Dry Drunk

Just as there are guidelines and information that help a newly dry alcoholic shift from the depression and

resentment of a "dry drunk" to the acceptance and enjoyment of sobriety, this book will offer direction and insight to those

problem eaters still suffering from a dieting mentality—their own brand of a dry drunk.

The same solutions and tools that are used in arresting alcoholism are presented as a "map" to facilitate the problem eater

in moving from the depressing cycle of out-of-control eating, over-controlled eating, to the serenity and sanity of

continuous abstinence from compulsive eating.

Whereas dieting can create a bondage to the insanity of a "dry drunk," abstinence from random, compulsive, overeating or

undereating can offer "sobriety"—a sane and sound way to address and arrest addictive eating.

Just as alcoholics can now be offered the hope and promise of recovery, people with any and all expressions of eating

disorders can also be invited to believe that they, too, can experience a full recovery.
