A SURPRISE CHAPTER BLEW MY MIND

Michael Easter’s The Comfort Crisis is a must-read for those of us who know we’re capable of more.

Michael Easter's The Comfort Crisis just blew my mind.

I bought the book because I am fascinated by behavior and how we always opt for easy. The chapter, 4,000 Calories, blindsided me— it is about our relationship with food and hunger and why, in general, we can't lose or even maintain weight.

If you struggle with your relationship with food or fad diets or are recovering from an eating disorder like myself, this chapter alone is worth the price of the book.
