If you answered yes to any of these questions, Get Thin, Stay Thin can help. Get Thin, Stay Thin goes beyond trendy, short-term weight-control plans to treat the root issue of most eating problems: We try to satisfy our souls, as well as our bodies, with food. We all crave intimacy, security, and acceptance. When these needs are not met, we often turn to substitutes--like food. Get Thin, Stay Thin shows you how to satisfy your emotional and spiritual hungers so that you don't have to turn to food. As these issues are resolved, you will gain a freeing perspective on hunger and food and will live a more fulfilling life as a result. Arthur W.

Judy Wardell Halliday, RN, is the cofounder of Thin Within and the coauthor of the bestseller Thin Within.
Get Thin, Stay Thin addresses the real reason we struggle with eating problems: we try to use food to satisfy our souls. As the Hallidays explain, we all crave intimacy, security, and acceptance. When these needs are not met, we often turn to substitutes such as food. The Hallidays go beyond trendy, short-term weight-control plans and urge readers to allow God to satisfy their deepest hungers. Anyone who has struggled with weight loss will benefit from this honest and thorough look at getting beyond the guilt and the ups and downs of yo-yo dieting.
