Excerpt from Shrink Yourself

I’m going to blog bits of this book that appeal to me as I go. I hope someone else will find them useful as well.

“Forget love, I want to fall in chocolate.” People who think that way have decided that it’s easier to get a hit of bliss from a cookie than to deal with the emotional demands of love. Food doesn’t talk back, it never says no, it doesn’t criticize you. But food will never satisfy that basic human need to be part of an intimate, harmonious and fulfilling relationship. Altho food can give you a momentary feeling of fullness, it can’t fill the void that wants to be filled with love and intimacy.

So simple and yet so true. “You will never get enough of what you DON’T REALLY WANT!”
