Publisher Description: More than 80 percent of all Americans have been on a diet at some point in their lives. Low fat, low carb, high protein - you name it - they've tried it. Isn't there a better way to break the cycle in the battle of the bulge?

After years of futile dieting, you know there's more to weight control than what you eat. Having discovered the power that food has over our lives, Elyse Fitzpatrick helps you:

• identify your destructive eating habits
• surrender your desire for control
• break the vicious cycle of emotional eating
• develop a flexible plan suited to your unique situation

God knows everything about you ... where you've been and where you're going. Because He knows you so well, He can deeply transform you, giving you the contentment you long for.
