In 1982 I took The Caryl Ehrlich Program in New York City. I did not have much weight to lose but it kept fluctuating up and down, up and down seven pounds; and it haunted me. Caryl taught me how I could be in control of ‘it’ rather than ‘it’ of me. I lost the weight and have kept it off all these years. What I learned was the techniques to use when I occasionally gain a few pounds. This program still works because it is not a diet; and I hate diets! It is a behavioral approach to changing your habits and removing the fear of food. CONQUER YOUR FOOD ADDICTION enabled me to relive the program, reinforce what I knew and gain many new insights. On top of it all, this book is a fun read! I recommend it highly to all who struggle with pounds, both great and small.

A reviewer, October 28, 2003, I can’t believe it. For years I have tried every diet to lose 8 lbs. Nothing worked. A friend mentioned a book that dealt with losing weight through a behavioral approach. Needless to say, I HAD to read this. The book of course was Conquer Your Food Addiction. As you read it, you realize how sensible Caryl Ehrlich’s program is. It’s clear to follow, and by the end of the book, you’re eat differently, and the best part, you’re thinner. It really worked! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

First of all, I didn’t read this book in order to lose or maintain weight. I read it because of the title, “Conquer Your Food Addiction,” which reflects my attitude toward food consumption and bodyweight, which is: If I’m eating more than I need to eat for proper nutrition AND enjoyment, and I am overweight but with no medical problem causing my excess weight, then I should pay attention to my eating habits and change them. The way I had lost weight and maintained that loss without feeling deprived of enjoyment, turns out to be basically the way the author of this book went about it, and wrote about it.
And, I, like the author, had other serious addictions–my own having been heroin, which I kicked forty years ago, and cigaret smoking, which I kicked eighteen years ago. I figured I didn’t need an amount of food that caused me to be overweight any moe than I needed heroin or cigarets.
There is no book that is perfect for every person. Upon reading any book, one should learn from it what one can, and do whatever else is helpful for one as an individual. I find, for myself, that regular exercise three times a week, helps give me a sense of how much I need to eat. I also try to make my calories count. For instance, I have a sweet tooth, but I have found that instead of having a piece of cake with rich topping, I am truly satisfied with, for instance, a whole-grain rice cake or whole wheat matzoh with natural (non-hydrogenized) almond butter, topped with reduced fat sour cream or yogurt.
