A review by estelleidekreads
Overcoming Binge Eating by Christopher G. Fairburn
3.0
This review is for the book and not the program as I haven’t finished it yet.
I found the book to be somewhat outdated, focusing on the old criteria for eating disorders instead of the current DSM-V ones. I also didn’t like how the author kept writing “his or hers” instead of just using “they” which is much more inclusive.
It was quite informative but I already knew most of the things mentioned in part 1 and thus was a bit disappointed by it.
I am giving the program a go and am on step 3. I do like that they included information on what to do if the program didn’t help, with an emphasis on the program failing us rather than us failing it.
