I haven't ever heard of Beck's book, but have been following the nutritional plan outlined in Melonie Dodaro's latest book titled, "The MindBody FX Lifestyle." The thing I like about the Dodaro's plan is that it points out that you should be eating every 2-3 hours (list of healthy foods are suggested) to keep the metabolism going- so I don't feel as though I am deprived.

I started (and gave up) Becks Book a while ago. It was just too much more crap to haul around and put on my to do list while I left myself off.

Look for the audio version. At least that way you can do other things is it is a total flop, and still have the book to refer back to if you like.
In my line of work there is a saying – “Too good many books to waste time finishing bad ones.”

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is researched and proven but DAMN, it’s boring.

I’m thinking of writing my own diet book, advocating a venison-only diet. Then people can write blog posts titled “what the buck?”

Plus, if it made tons o’ cash, I’d be raking in the bucks. People could write in saying that they felt really bucked up after trying my diet.

And then… what was that?
Oh.
Okay.
I’ll shut up now.
(Hey, it’s been a long day. My sense of humor is probably even more skewed than usual.)

I had the same problem with the book. I liked the ideas, but I only made it through about four weeks, and then I gave it up. I have a stack of note cards for proof of my progress. Maybe I should pick the book back up.

I’m with Miz. And Deana. Even if this isn’t it, I just hope you find something that works for you. I’m very intrigued by the concept, but for me, it just seems too *busywork*. But maybe it’s busywork that’s needed. Hmmmm…

It happens to everyone, I like DanaDangers “audible scolding” idea though :)

I’d like to be less bloblike for Fitbloggin’ too (I’ll be there..WooT. Would it be weird if I wanted you to sign my copy of your book? :-P) but I think I have a long way to go before I’m more fit than blob.

Selfishly glad to see that you are planning on picking Beck back up again. I purchased the book when I first read your posts about it as it sounded like something I need.

But I haven’t read more than a couple of pages and was coming back to check in and be inspired. LOL

No pressure or anything.
