Book Description
AT LAST! A BOOK TO HELP YOU BREAK OUT OF THE DIET/BINGE CYCLE--AND LOSE WEIGHT NATURALLY.
Diet/binge. Good food/bad food. Punishment/reward. These are the compulsive eater's nightmares, a longtime pattern of recrimination and guilt that ultimately leads to more overeating and more weight gain. Now, for the first time, here is a proven, step-by-step plan that doesn't control your eating habits--but cures them, once and for all. OVERCOMING OVEREATING will show you how to:
¸ Give up dieting forever and discover that you actually eat much less without the pressure of restraints
¸ Eat from true stomach hunger instead of "mouth" hunger--the emotional trigger that makes you turn to food even though you're not hungry
¸ Enjoy the enormous satisfaction of meeting true hunger with the foods you most desire
¸ Stop overeating and lose weight naturally
¸ Move beyond your negative preoccupation with eating and weight toward a fuller, more satisfying life
From the Trade Paperback edition.

Finally, I Get It!.......2007-07-08
I had bought this book years ago but didn't remember reading it so I read it. I've been a dieter for about 25 years and always end up in the same place...heavier than before and more unahappy with myself. After reading just the first couple of chapters, I felt like a heavy weight (no pun intended!) was lifted from me. I've been "demand eating" for about a week now and I can't believe what a difference this has made in my life. One of the biggest changes I've noticed is just in my overall attitude about life. I've been nicer to people and more positive in general because I don't have this constant negative self-talk going on in my head anymore. The next biggest thing I noticed was that food and the scale have lost all power over me. I don't feel anxious anymore when I eat because I have learned to eat when I am truly hungry. If you are truly ready to change your life, read this book!
Caring about yourself.......2007-06-03
I have read this book in 2001 and have not dieted ever since. The desire to diet has never returned, but I used to be pretty enthralled with it. After reading the book, and doing what I learned, I did indeed find my natural body size, which is 8. This book has taught me to accept myself and care for myself in a way that has not only improved my body image but also my overall self-confidence and self-esteem. I learned to address the real issue of why I was overeating (which is taught in the book). I have found that the key to success is to internalize the instructions given and to WHOLE-HEARTEDLY apply them in my life.
Life changing information.......2007-03-09
This is a must read for anybody with a compulsive overeating problem. I can't say enough good things about this book. I found out how to stop the binge/diet cycle and live like a normal person, finally. The program is so simple and logical that I knew from the start that my life was going to change forever. I would urge binge eaters/compulsive overeaters to give this method a try. It just might be the ticket for you as it was for me.
Overcoming Overeating.......2007-02-02
Great book.! Makes good sense about non-dieting. The focus is on not denying one's self of a favorite food. Guilt is also a no, no. Using stomach hunger for the cue to eat rather than psychological hunger. Also, gives methods to accomplish this.
Wow, a revelation!! Amazing book........2007-01-19
This book is an amazing book. I have finally coming to grips with my compulsive eating addiction. I thought I would obsess about food forever. I thought something was wrong with me and I was like the equivalent to a drug addict. I'm so glad I got fed up with diets as soon as I did and that I turned to this book. If you truly follow the steps in the book and do everything, you will eventually feel better about yourself and lose weight. I actually legalized food, eat whatever I want, listen to my hunger cues, and listen to my body, and I am actually losing weight. And I'm free. I have never felt so much better in my life and happy.
I feel like it's too good to be true. Like, I'm not allowed to feel good about myself even though I do NOT have a model body. It's great to be able pass by McDonald's or ice cream shop or a bakery without drooling over it. When I was on a diet, I'd just dream about it, and when I fell of the diet, I'd just binge on those foods.
I really wish everyone would read this book. I reccommend it to everyone.

Book Description
Make peace with food and break free from yo-yo dieting and compulsive eating forever.
Why do 90 percent of even the most resolute dieters fail over the long term? Why do some people binge on ice cream when they experience stress? Sometimes food cravings can be so consuming that they feel like an uncontrollable addiction. But as Dr. Balasa L. Prasad explains in Stop Overeating for Good, there is no such thing as an addiction to food. If you want to stop overeating for good, the answer is in your mind, not your body. Only when you understand the psychological triggers that are really driving your overeating, can you permanently curb your cravings.
With Dr. Prasad's proven and practical six-step program readers will:
- identify their addictive profile with an insightful questionnaire
- understand why they use food as a crutch and why they must stop
- turn off obsessive thoughts about food
- learn to avoid the temptations and pitfalls that lure them back to overeating
- change their relationship with food forever
Customer Reviews:
Conciencia de mi valor como ser humano, y cómo reflejarlo..........1997-07-03
Me encontré este libro en mi intensa busqueda de mi misma
Había tomado el camino fácil de culpar de todas mis frustraciones a "mi sobrepeso"; también mi inmovilidad se la dedicaba a él
Cuando leí este libro me pareció tan LIBRE
Es un apoyo para gente que como yo, esta buscando algo más que obedecer "guias ajenas"
Después de revisar el libro adquirí mucha más conciencia de los caminos que tomaba para escaparme de las verdaderas cuestiones de mi vida
Una vez resuelto este pretexto, opte por ya no castigar a mi cuerpo por mis propias debilidades espirituales
La comida y el sobrepeso; la autotortura y la flagelación, ya no son el camino que tomo para resolver mis contradicciones existenciales
Aprendí a disfrutar la comida; a disfrutar a las personas que gozan comiendo; a alimentar mi cuerpo; alimentar mi mente y mi espiritu...Por qué no? Todos tenemos derecho...A pesar de que el mensaje sea NO para los sobrepesados

The perfect compromise between economy, convenience, health, and flavor.......2007-04-21
This is an outstanding example of a cookbook that accomplishes its stated purpose. These are excellent recipes which produce very agreeable and enjoyable dishes with a minimum of fuss. With each new recipe I keep thinking, "Well, THIS one isn't going to turn out be as good as the others
have...", but everything keeps coming together and turning out great. Working out of this book, I've had a 100% success rate - out of a dozen tries, I've turned out a dozen dishes I'd want to make again...and roommates, girlfriends and guests have all been quite pleased, so it's not just me.
Another argument in favor of this cookbook is that it is very reasonably priced. Collectors of high priced chef-oriented volumes (Thomas Keller, Daniel Bourdain, or even Tyler, Giada and their Food Network peers) will find it somewhat plain and lacking in presentation (it's nicely put together, but without a lot of fancy production or food photography)...but if you are just looking for a lot of "bang" for your cookbook dollar, this one delivers.
Two caveats - as a previous reviewer mentioned, although these recipes aren't especially exotic, neither are they oriented toward children who are picky eaters. In other words, some of the fancier dishes are not going to fly with the "mac'n'cheese and pizza" crowd. This is definitely adult oriented fare for the most part. And on the other hand, this isn't the fare you would cook to impress a first date - it's excellent stuff, but not especially exotic or impressive looking. That's why I called it a "compromise" in the review title. Save these recipes for friends, family and loved ones who just want something good on the table.
Although it isn't formatted to reach the single/couple cooking demographic, I still have come to prefer "Jeanne Jones' Healthy Cooking" over my previous favorite in that category, "Healthy Cooking For Two (or Just You) by Francine Price. Even though Price's book is nicely designed and has a brilliant format, this book simply has better recipes - each book takes a lot of "shortcuts" that simplify meal prep, but Jones' approach is both more meticulous and also more worth the effort. (And the leftovers are invariably devoured for lunch the next day.)
Not a "Family" Cookbook.......2004-05-14
This book was not at all what I expected. I was looking for fast and healthy meals to put in front of my family every night; and with the title being "...For People Who Don't Have Time To Cook", I assumed it was geared towards busy families. Unfortunately, the majority of the recipes are not kid-friendly. Dishes like Cider-Poached Salmon with Spiced Pear Sauce, Grilled Swordfish on Herbed Couscous with Vegetable Minestrone, and Middle Eastern Lamb Stew are not likely to please my brood. I sent this book back. 2 stars because the presentation of the book is nice, and I'm sure someone looking for fancy dishes like these would enjoy it.
More than you could ever want in a cookbook!.......2003-05-14
I never dreamt I'd see the day when I, of all non-cooking people, would say these words but wow, what a terrific cookbook Jeanne Jones' HEALTHY COOKING is! And you may be asking yourself "if she's a non-cooking person how would she know this is a great cookbook?" Well, I'll tell you. Because cooking is my father's absolute favorite hobby, I've been handed down many a cookbook from him with his hopes that maybe, just maybe, one of them might spark the hidden cook in me. But until HEALTHY COOKING I've never picked up a cookbook and looked at it more than once before placing it on the shelf to collect dust (let alone actually cook something out of it).
So anyway, back to why this book is wonderful. In addition to the obvious perks of the recipes being healthy and fast (the fast part making cooking relatively painless for those of us who don't wish to be in the kitchen any longer than absolutely necessary) the beginning of the book gives great advice on topics such as setting up your kitchen, purchasing poultry, storing food, and much more; the margins of the recipe pages are chock full of tips; but my absolute favorite is the "Spin Off" section at the bottom of each recipe which provides useful ideas for what to do with those pesky leftovers (invaluable information for those of us cooking for only one or two people). What more could you ask for in a cookbook? A sincere thank you to Jeanne Jones for creating such a tremendous cookbook as it's accomplished a feat none other, neither book nor human, could. You got a non-cook cooking!
My favorite cookbook!.......2001-05-14
This cookbook was the first one I ever bought...and it remains my favorite, even after getting married and amassing a very large cookbook collection. What I love about the book is that all of the recipes are very easy to prepare, yet taste as good as or better than most high-fat recipes. I am a registered nurse, so I am very careful to cook healthful food at home. There are recipes for everything from breakfast and brunch dishes to lunch dinner, dessert, and holiday menus. The Herbed Lemon Chicken is one of our favorite company dishes. This week I am making the following recipes from the cookbook: Tortilla Soup, Lemon-Tarragon Chicken on Cannellini beans, Shrimp Fettuccine, Beef Spaghetti Pie Ole, and Fat Free Fudge Brownies. A lot of the dishes can be prepared ahead of time, so it's a great book for entertaining or preparing holiday meals, as well. Enjoy!
This is one of the most useful cookbooks I own............2001-01-15
....and I own a lot of cookbooks! Let's face it, who WANTS to cook healthy? When you put so much time, trouble, and expense into cooking what you hope are tasty meals, it's safe to assume that anything loaded with fat and calories will be a big hit. It's not such a sure bet when you're using low-fat this, and reduced-sodium that. But when my husband's doctor ordered him to switch to a low-cholesterol diet, I had to figure something out! I started looking through my many cookbooks, and came across this one by Jeanne Jones. I have to admit, I've had it for a while, and I never had used it much before now. But once I got to really looking at it, I thought, "Hey, these sound really good....like real food!" I went through the entire book and flagged all the recipes that sounded good to me...and when I was finished, there were a LOT of flags sticking out of the book! I made three of the recipes that first week, and my husband didn't even KNOW he was eating healthy! The Baked Quesadillas and Overnight Cheese Strata were every bit as tasty as any recipe using full-fat ingredients. The Tarragon Chicken and Pasta Bake drew rave reviews, and he even took the leftovers to work the next day to nuke for lunch. There's also a great recipe for Fettucine Alfredo, which as we all know, is "Heart Attack on a Plate" in it's original form. This one used fat-free cream cheese and skim milk. Who knew they could taste so good?
The only change I make to the recipes is to add a bit of salt. Since this is technically a "healthy" cookbook, not just low-fat, the author tends to skimp on salt. Since we don't need to do that, I go ahead a add just a bit, but if you are on a low-sodium diet, then the recipes would be just right for you. Next up on the menu....Chile Rellenos Casserole! Or will it be Ham & Cheese Calzone? Hmmmm.....
Customer Reviews:
Great cookbook for the low-fat cook.......2007-04-27
The cookbook is full of recipes that are truly fast. The cookbook focuses on low-fat cooking and doesn't rely on processed or convenience foods too much like other timesaver cookbooks. In our family, we do not follow a low-fat approach, so it doesn't appeal to us but to anyone who prefers a low-fat diet, you will love this cookbook.
