  • for some motivational books to add to my weight loss library.

  • Come on ladies....any suggestions??
  • Sorry, don't think I can help you. I am not really big on motivational books. I just don't find the time to read much.
    Good Luck, I hope you find what you are looking for.

  • Many here did a book study of Dr. Phils book. I started it...but fizzled out.
    you might go and read all the postings we wrote and see what you think.

    I am not a reader either.
    I found lots of help not only concerning food.. but life in general from all the Alcoholics Anonymous and Overeaters Anonymous and Emotion Anonymous and Alanon books.
    I read them more as text books to learn from. And I learned a LOT.
  • Vivian, It's not a weight loss book, but I found The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People useful in helping me prioritize weight loss. Covey's very good at helping you think about urgent vs. important--gotta pay attention now, versus, you can let it slide but it'll make you miserable later--and that helped me put weight loss higher on my list.
  • I like the Geneen Roth books. They're not really motivational, more like discussion and empathy for food addiction. Worth a look though. I clip and save magazine articles - the ones with before and after pictures and look at them from time to time. People Magazine usually does a weight loss story in January.
  • Thanks ladies!
