Product Description
The Beck Diet Solution is the Missing Ingredient in Weight Loss

  • Lose weight with confidence and keep it off for a lifetime!

  • Conquer every excuse you've ever used to overeat, binge, or backslide!

    Any sensible diet will help you lose weight, but the challenge for 90% of Americans is actually staying on the diet they choose. Enter Dr. Judith Beck and The Beck Diet Solution. Dr. Beck, one of the foremost authorities in the field of Cognitive Therapy, has created a six-week plan that will help people stick with their diet, lose weight with confidence, and keep weight off for a lifetime. This program is not only based on the author's personal success and on her success with her many clients, but also on published research. It all starts with how you think. With other programs, you think about nothing but food: counting, weighing, and worst of all, food you can't have. This way of thinking inevitably contributes to diet failure. The Beck Diet Solution is the only program that helps dieters use Cognitive Therapy methods--scientifically proven over 20 years--to forever change those treacherous thought patterns that lead to overeating, cheating, excuses, and other dieting downfalls.

    Features

    This breakthrough six-week plan assures success by helping you assess the advantages of weight loss, pick a sensible diet and exercise program, set a goal, line up support, and prepare your environment--all this before starting any diet. This unique approach is key to preventing the downfalls that so often lead to failure.

    A new task is presented each day to build psychological skills to deal with the challenges of hunger and craving, overeating, alcohol, eating out, special occasions, vacations, stress, and much more. Healthy habits are established with to-do lists, reasons and ways to do the tasks, and how to deal with negative thoughts. One day a week is designated to "Take a Breather."

    Easy-to-use, flexible, and proven tools are found throughout the program, including daily goals; weekly planner pages; and motivational coping cards for handling time/energy hurdles, eating out, and other high-risk situations.

    The Beck Diet Solution: Train Your Brain to Think Like a Thin Person Follow this program and this could be the end of struggles with how you feel about your body....and a never ending cycle of weight loss & gain.

    I could probably teach people about dieting after all the diets I have been on -- but this is the first approach that is so directly focused on training my brain to think like a thin person. Yes, I will have to pay attention to my eating during my life -- but the struggle and self-abuse of my thought is now something I can control - by thinking like a thin person...

    3 out of 5 stars A good way to retrain your brain   February 15, 2010

    I found out about this book in an article from Woman's Day or Good Housekeeping. I had checked out the book from the library and found out it was a six week long period for the book, so I decided to purchase it instead. First off, this is NOT a diet book. It is a side note to a diet or healthful eating. The advice is sound. Cognative therapy is one of the best ways to retrain your brain on food. It gives you small steps each way. Some may be harder to do than others, but you keep doing it step by step. I'm still only on Day 8, but the book says to take things in your own time, but so far, a lot of the ideas of worked. I've enjoyed reading it because she constantly encourages you and says, no one is perfect. And no one is.
