"Well, Martha Beck is certainly her father's daughter in that she can take a large amount of source material and whip out a book at the drop of a hat. Unfortunately, where her father's voice was always authentically his, with Martha it is difficult to tell where what she writes is her own insight, and where it is just being made up of bits and pieces of other people's stuff as she goes along. For example, I have no idea whether she has ever really had any personal struggle with her weight, or if she is just taking things she has dealt with with clients in her life-coaching and applied it to herself. It just doesn't ring true. Anyway, I did get a few useful ideas from this book. She is good at what she does and you could read this book and get the best parts of lots of other self-help books all pulled together and applied to weight loss."
"I started reading this last month around the time I joined weight watchers. Between this program and that, I was losing weight very quickly -- too quickly, according to the eTools on WW's website. Then I stopped. Reading, that is, and doing the exercises Beck recommends. Big mistake. My weight started climbing again because I wasn't feeding the Wild Child that seeks food when it can't have what it wants. Lesson learned. Beck is back in my regime and this time, with her help and Weight Watchers', the result is going to stick. Martha makes you laugh while she motivates you. What could be better than that? This will get 5 stars when I've finished reading and doing the exercises because, you know folks, it's all about the Exercises."
