The EatSanely workbook course is now available in convenient paperback form!
EatSanely: Get Off the Diet Roller Coaster for Good is the first in a series of publications available from www.eatsanely.com It contains the step-by-step modules of the original EatSanely course. The workbook is meant to guide you through the process of beginning, and then keeping on, eating more sanely. With it you can target weight loss, weight maintenance, healthier eating and exercise habits. You can define a way of eating you’d like to stick with, then prepare to make the changes you’ll need. This comprehensive workbook will help you problem-solve, adjust the thinking and habits that might have blocked your way to success in the past.
Most of us have ideas about how we want to eat….but have trouble sticking to the path. The workbook materials will help you understand why this happens and how you can make changes that stick.
As with the original course format, you can still follow Eat Sanely as a self-help or coach-assisted course. As self-help, you complete the modules, or chapters, at your own pace. With coach assistance, you complete the modules over several weeks with intermittent phone coaching sessions. You can get information about how this process works by clicking on the tabs above.
I’m very happy to announce this publication—and I look forward to sharing information over the coming weeks about companion materials meant to help you on your path to better eating, health, and happiness.

I’m so happy to launch EatSanely, my new website, course, and blog. I’ve been working toward this project in various ways for years–as a psychologist, eating disorders specialist, and person who’s very fired up about the food craziness surrounding us.
To start with, let me restate here my working definition of “sane eating”: In short, this is eating in a way that maintains a healthy-enough weight, for good, without constant worry or guilt. In other words, without short-term or extreme diets cause frustration and regain. This doesn’t mean one way of eating fits all. It also doesn’t mean that this is easy, or that it happens all at once. Given the world we live in, though, it does mean that we each have to find some way of reaching that sane eating path—because our food world isn’t going to change overnight. Finding your own path to sanity can take trial and error, and time and attention, given that we live in a world of fast food, fake food, 300,000 diet books, and 1,400 calorie hamburgers. I believe there’s a way for each of us, though. And that’s what this work, and this forum, is about.
In this weekly blog, I’ll talk about sane eating “building blocks”—change strategies, coping skills, and “food for thought” that might help in paving a sane path. Also, as I comb the media daily for the helpful and the ridiculous, I’ll often comment on what strikes me there.
I hope you’ll join me in this exploration. I’m looking forward to hearing your thoughts, your ideas, your questions, your successes and frustrations. Let me know what you think!
