On Eating by Susie Orbach

In a market that is overloaded with nutritional advice and dieting regimes this little book really stood out for me.

Susie focusses on helping us to re-evaluate how we think and feel about eating so that we eat when we are hungry for food, eat what food we want to eat to satisfy us, and stop eating when we are full.

'Eating is pleasurable, eating is delicious, eating is sensual', says Susie, and yet for so many of us eating is associated with anguish and abstinence.

‘It isn’t magic but it feels as if it is’ Susie comments.

And I’m aware that Susie’s easy bite-sized keys have stayed with me … might she have something to offer you too?
