Life Inside the "Thin" Cage: A Personal Look into the Hidden World of the Chronic Dieter

Life Inside the "Thin" Cage: A Personal Look into the Hidden World of the Chronic Dieter

Frustrated by the often unrealistic standards of beauty presented by todayâ€™s media, many women have become trapped in a never-ending pattern of chronic dieting. Daily they endure destructive self-talk such as â€œI canâ€™t eat that or Iâ€™ll get fatâ€ or â€œIf I could just lose a few more pounds everything would be better.â€

Chronic dieters may be any shape or size but they have one thing in common: They are often left to suffer alone with an undiagnosed â€œsub-clinicalâ€ eating disorder. Such sub-clinical disorders include eating habits that are unusual, even unhealthy, but do not fit the technical classifications of anorexia or bulimia.

Addressing the many dimension of â€œchronic dieting,â€ Life Inside the â€œThinâ€ Cage offers a wake-up call and practical steps to those who need healing. Readers will find personal stories, insights into their secret patterns and habits, reassurance that they are not alone, checklists, self-tests, and, best of all, a new road to emotional, physical, mental and spiritual freedom.
