Synopsis

The New York Times bestselling author of The Beck Diet Solution teams up with her daughter and colleague at the Beck Institute for Cognitive Behavior to teach readers how to think their way thin, offering practical, proven tools for escaping common diet traps for good.Most diet programs work at first. But then life happens—stress, bad habits, holidays, travel—and we revert to bad habits, and the weight comes back. In this invaluable book, Dr. Judith Beck offers the solution to break free from these common diet traps and keep the weight off for life.Dr. Beck explains that when it comes to losing weight, it’s not just about what we eat. It’s also about how we think. To consistently eat differently, we must learn to think differently. Diets fail us because they don’t offer effective strategies for overcoming the common traps—emotional eating, social pressure, dining out—that can derail us. Now, she and her daughter, Deborah Beck Busis, share the techniques they have successfully used with thousands of clients, revealing how to overcome the thoughts and behaviors that have held us back. With The Diet Trap Solution, readers on any diet regimen can learn to identify their specific diet traps and create action plans to strengthen their “resistance muscle”—making losing weight easy, sustainable, and enjoyable.

Goodreads review by Nancy on November 27, 2019

I did try to glean what good I could from this book and there were some good things. And I think it adds to my growing understanding of why we eat what we eat and how much we eat. But overall there were so many things that rubbed me wrong. The overall feeling was that we have and will have an advers......more

Goodreads review by Patricia on October 07, 2021

I think this book was kind of unnecessary. All of the same information is in the first book, the Beck Diet Solution. Another thing that bothers me is the idea of dieting.

Another excellent book by Dr. Judith Beck (and her daughter Deborah Beck Busis) addressing the thinking process that gets us in trouble when we are trying to lose weight or maintain weight loss.

There are so many reasons why healthy eating can be difficult - holidays, stress, busy schedules, other people who push you to eat/drink, etc etc. Dr. Beck has such a warm, engaging tone and includes so many personal stories of her clients who face similar struggles. When I first r......more
