What did you love best about Stop Eating Your Heart Out?
The entire book is so relatable. It's filled with hope and inspiring stories. I especially appreciated the quiz she gave to see if the readers are compulsive overeaters. I found out that I definitely am, as I answered yes to many of the well-crafted questions!! I eat to cope with my emotions, to hide from them, and that is a behavior that needs to be stopped if I am ever to lose the extra 40 pounds I am carrying around with me. Meryl's book gives the reader step-by-step instructions as to how to do that. I am excited to get started implementing the plans she lays out for her llsteners. Especially because the steps follow each other in an easy-to-implement order that makes perfect sense!!
Who was your favorite character and why?
Meryl herself, because she shares her own inspiring journey with such candor and heart. It's clear that she comes from a sincere place of truly wanting to help her listeners break free from the chains of emotional eating, as she has. I also love listening to her voice and find it very comforting and soothing.
Which scene was your favorite?
That is a difficult question to answer because I truly enjoyed the whole book. Meryl presents information in a way that is both interesting and insightful and she does this by sharing her own experience, strength and hope with us. This is not just an instruction manual for ending emotional eating. It is also a memoir, as she very courageously shares her own struggles with emotional eating and the many tools she has used to overcome that deeply-ingrained behavior.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The epilogue gave me chills. It is amazing to me that the very day she was finishing her manuscript, her beloved son Jonathan was taking his own life (completely unbeknownst to her at the time). That she was able to walk through his death, funeral and her own grieving process without emotional eating is a testament to the power of her commitment to her own recovery and the tools laid out in this book.
Any additional comments?
Yes. Meryl gives me tremendous hope, as I'm sure she does other listeners. Hers is a very powerfully moving journey through recovery and her instruction manual for living without emotional eating is one that everyone who's ever battled emotional eating should surely listen to. I know I will be recommending it to many of my friends and family members!
